    I just received my annual subscription increase via email. So once again, I will have call some person who barely speaks English at one of Adobe's off-shore call centers (India) and tell them that I'm canceling myself subscription...so that I can continue getting my subscription at my existing price. Fuck you Adobe for making me do this every year.

    The 20 minute phone call with Adobe always ends like this.

    "Great news Mr. Michael, I just spoke with my manager and we are going to upgrade your subscription at the existing price...thank you for being a valuable customer of Adobe, good day sir."

    • I might employ this system with my clients, just bill them for more. No mention of it. If they pay, they pay. If they realise, then call me - customer service,shapesalad
    • and i'll give the the rate originally agreed. if only 1 out of 10 clients pays the increased amount, it's worth it.shapesalad
    • it's called inflation utopian. That's what happens when you print money to pay for all your shit.hotroddy
    • Everybody is increasing their prices. Shopify subscriptions jumped by 40%.hotroddy
    • You dont even have to talk to anyone. Right through the website you can cancel, keep cancelling until you get the "ok dont go, here is our final offer to stay"ArmandoEstrada
    • Just did it. Saving $120 a year. Every little bit counts!hotroddy

    • Why didn't you pay the full asking pricing Hotknobby? Your hands must be really tired from all that begging...you welfare commie socialist pig. Get a job moran!utopian
    • not a commie but a freelancer and Adobe is overhead. If I was a commie I wouldn't be able to afford it.hotroddy
    • sounds like you're just trying to get a handout while everyone else pulls up their bootstraps, like welfare scummonospaced
    • handout out by a corporation? QBNer's displaying their fine American education.hotroddy
    • If Adobe is so readily giving out large discounts, then they themselves know the product is not worth as much as they charge.ETM
    • And for some, can be easily replaced with the right motivation. I'm not a creative anymore, and the discount is the only reason I'm not all in Affinity yet.ETM
