When 123RF introduced their 'all you can download' Plus plan, I promptly opted out.
Since then, I've seen the option on the submissions page for Premium, Premium and Plus and Free collection, and mine has defaulted to Premium only for the last couple of years.
However, for the last 10 days or so, I'm getting Plus sales recorded in my daily stats, and I haven't changed anything. I've searched the site, and can no longer find the opt out.
Is anyone else experiencing this?
I have a nasty feeling that I may have missed an exciting news email

I have another problem. I would like to sell videos on Plus, but I don't know how to apply. They probably don't take everyone.
-
I don't generate AI shits and never will.
I had this issue of getting money for AI stealing my work, while I opted out from the beginning.
They simply ignored my messages.
I deleted all and have quit this very dishonest bad place.

Plus isn't AI related or premium sale related - it's an 'all you can use' monthly subscription.

I was contributor to 123rf since 2006... so... I can know what it is about.

Oh, OK - I wasn't sure because you mentioned opting out of AI use.
Anyway, I opted out of Plus, but now seem to be getting payments for Plus sales, so I wondered if anyone else was having an issue with this?

It happened to me too. I was opted out... I am gradually removing my portfolio anyway. Sales are down 94% since 2016. Little to lose by leaving.
-
I wanted to say that none can trust this agency anymore. The best to do is deleting images and leaving.
-
I'm close to next payout, so I'll take that and then shut it down. It's a shadow of its past self anyway.

I think that's a pretty good group of ideas. I've tried to refrain from commenting, because I did the same, years back. There's no reason to support a parasite that just drives the market value for images down. I mean none of them, not just 123RF.

I'm in the exact same situation - just waiting for a final $9 payout before closing my account. Seeing the dramatic drop in sales over the years, it really feels like there's no longer anything to gain by staying. Definitely time to move on.

I have $20 to go until next payout, but then I'm shutting it down. Although it will be time consuming, I'm planning on deleting all content before asking for account closure.

Smart to delete content yourself first. Doesn't guarantee they won't still somehow profit from it but most certainly better than trusting them to manage/delete the data properly.

Yes, I plan to do so as soon as I make the payout amount, so that I can get payment before the account is closed, but will hopefully stop them from earning money that they'll keep in the interim.
