Q:"Are users on Lifetime Pro plans affected?"A:No, the Lifetime Pro plan is an actual paid plan. If you have it, it will remain unchanged on your account. You were advertised a service you would get access to for as long as the company exists if you paid the price on the site. We're still around so if you paid that price, you will still have the service. Q: Are Relief Codes eligible? A: While the early 50/60GB codes were in fact advertised as lifetime codes, the relief codes we sent out during hard times in certain regions were not. Because they weren't intended to be permanent and due to the massive abuse we saw with these codes, we are still going forward with the downgrades for anyone who had them. We'll have future relief codes as well but these will be temporary and will automatically get removed after some time. Anyone downgraded from a relief code will still be able to claim the existing discount and get a Pro subscription for $29/year. |
When we said lifetime of free bandwidth, we meant President Putin's lifetime.
We are restoring all of your early 50/60 GB plans to their original sexiness, for fairness. That's right, you will all be re-upgraded from the downgrade of your previous upgrade.
We are still going to downgrade these free 50/60 GB lifetime plans, but only when Vladimir Putin aka Putler aka Senator PalPutin dies.
Yes we are serious. When Putin dies, all Big Gig plans will be downgraded. It could be tomorrow, it could be in 20 years. We don't know and neither do you.
Your new conundrum is that if you want your Big Gig plan to last longer, you will have to actively try to keep Putin alive. The sooner he dies, the sooner you lose the plan. That's what we in the business call a "quandary".
We know this downgrade will still upset you, but at least when it happens you can be happy Putin is dead. At the end of the day we are a self-funded business and we need money to hire more people to make our vision come true. We tried training mice to manage our infrastructure, as they don't require paychecks or have bank accounts, but the mice ended up demanding more pay than our human employees.
In the future, all "lifetime" statements (if there are any) aimed at free users will be pegged to the existential span of specific people or animals.
The longer he lives, the longer you keep your plan
....
Frankly, it was disrespectful of us to offer you the $29/year Pro deal as consolation for downgrading your Big Gig plans. You deserve better as our oldest and dearest users. The idea of offering a $29 deal was hatched by an employee who has been "taken care of." And by "taken care of" we mean we sent them to Siberian "Disneyland". But don't worry, they are enjoying rides like "Hold On to the Snow Shovel While Security Beats You" and the world famous "Don't Eat for Four Days as Punishment for Your Mistakes Adventure." We expect toilet paper postcards any day now. Wait, do they even have ink at Disneyland Siberia?
Yearly Pro Subscription for $10
Suddenly, our CEO burst into our lantern-lit conference room and yelled out "GIVE IT TO THEM FOR $10 A YEAR." "For life?" we asked, knowing how contentious that word had now become. "For as long as we or they are alive - and the user doesn't cancel the plan," he replied. The reaction was palpable. We looked at each other in disbelief… that's about 83 cents a month for Windscribe Pro - the cheapest it has ever been. And it's only available to our OG'est of OG users. It will never be available to anyone else. It cannot be shared, it cannot be posted anywhere and it's exclusive so you must be logged into your 50/60 GB account to get the deal. This offer will only be available until September 1st, 2023, after that it's gone forever.
There's a small catch, though: you must cash in your 50/60 GB plan to get this ultra-cheap offer. This gives you about 2.5 months to choose whether you want to keep your Big Gigs for however long Putin lives, or give up the Big Gigs and jump into the refreshing oasis of the cheapest Pro plan we've ever had.
Yearly Pro Subscription for $10
Lastly, to those of you who understand where we are coming from, we thank you. We hope that you enjoyed using Windscribe, and we hope that you continue using it in the future. For those of you who don't, we are truly thankful for your valuable feedback and for sticking with us for such a long time.
Love, peace, and chicken grease,
Team Windscribe

Amazing service, has a great extension for chrome, great desktop application, and great router support.
Anyway...Their free service has been great, actually works better than a lifetime vpn service I paid for. Now trying to decide if I just roll with my free 60GB/month until Putin's demise, or jump on their offer of $10/year Pro plan. Decisions... Decisions...
