Did any Legacy Plus* users besides me make a note of what they were expecting to pay on the renewal date of their subscription this year by going to the Billing section of their account months in advance, only to then find a discrepancy with the renewal rate stated in the "Important change to your Evernote subscription" email they eventually received?
Back on March 2, I was expecting to pay CAD $78.39 on my renewal date of May 29 -- please see first attached screencap, taken March 2 from the Billing section of my account. Call me naive if you like for thinking my renewal rate would be the same as it was in 2023, but I don't have the resourcefulness many of you have to find out what Bending Spoons has coming down the pipe with respect to Evernote before the company eventually makes formal announcements. I find out about these changes much later, i.e., when I receive the emails from Evernote.
Today, May 1, I received the aforementioned email, and it indicated the renewal rate would be CAD $159.99 going forward and effective on my renewal date of May 29 -- please see second attached screencap, taken today from the Billing section of my account.
*I intentionally typed "Legacy Plus" because the aforementioned email is the first time Evernote actually took the time to inform me that my account has been transitioned from Plus to Personal. (A couple of months ago, I accidentally found out about the upgrade via an online post in the personal productivity club run by a Certified Evernote Expert.) This lack of communication is reminiscent of how I found out in a January 31 email from Evernote that my Evernote Free account would be limited to 50 notes and 1 notebook -- "Starting on December 4" is how that email started, and then I discovered that here on the forums, Federico Simionato had posted about the change on November 29 of last year. I've actually liked the new features I have been able to use since learning I was upgraded from Plus to Personal but I wished I had been told earlier so that I could start taking advantages of these features right away. Exporting my 6,500+ notes from my free account took about 6 hours on a Saturday back in February, which was no big deal, but then I couldn't import the .enex file into my paid account no matter how many times I tried. Over the next 2 weeks I managed to move all those notes to my paid account, as I had long ago shared notebooks between it and the free one -- I was relieved but I know I would have gone about the migration differently had I known earlier about the impending changes to free accounts.
