But requirements for 2021. were made in beginning of 2021. Requirements for 2022. were never made and 2022. has ended, so you know, it is not possible for AS to set rules for 2022. anymore and it is not possible for us to meet these rules because they don't exist.

Yes, AS people could theoretically be kind and give us codes because they like us (and not because they want us to upload, sell, earn money), but I don't think it is very likely.
of course it's still possible - all AS has to do is describe how they're going to select who gets the bonus. absolutely no reason they had to do it on 1/1/22

still waiting for any doom-prophets to make a $ bet on their 'knowledge'

I’d put $20 down that it’s not coming back for this year, but what do I get if I “win”?
i'll take your bet - if AS doesnt give bonus codes this year i'll send you $20 by paypal

Wait a second, we gotta wait all year? I'll be hungry for some of the good ramen much sooner than 2024.

Where do you find the expiration date for the plan you are on?

Lina · « **Reply #103 on:** January 15, 2023, 08:39 »

Go to https://account.adobe.com/, maybe then click on "Manage your plans".

Thanks, on the page at that address there is a "redeem a new code by 'date'". I think that's it.

I would put my money on pigsinspace. Time is well overdue and looking at the non-responsive posts of Mat I would be highly surprised if Adobe would come up with something. Like someone else sort of said here, bring positive news shouting but shut up when there is bad news to bring. The silence of Adobe and Mat (who is being paid to convey Adobe's corporate message) kind of tells you what the outcome will be, right?

I'm starting to think the same, which is such a disappointment. I haven't been able to use the codes in the past, as they've been one app codes, and I use several from the whole suite. This time I would qualify for the whole suite based on the previous year's criteria, (5000+ downloads), so it would be just my luck that it gets scraped just in time for me to miss out again.

It’s a deal.

Checked my billing history with Adobe. In 2021 I was paying about £30/ month for all apps. now it's £51.98! a 70+% increase. LOL I guess we're the frogs that just get dumped straight into the boiling water.

As I know price about 50-60 eur/month for all aps is more then two years.. maybe you have used some discount code 🤔

ignoring the urban legend about frogs,

if you were paying that amt in 2021 you got a deal! and w conversion rates you're still getting a better deal than US customers

Really? I wonder how I swung it? I remember speaking to Adobe at one point but don't remember what it was about. I just looked back over my billing history and I was paying for individual apps (adding up to about £30) and then switched to the all apps 100GB plan. I was on the £30/ month all apps from then on.

I could have been better off not activating my codes! I'll eventually end up paying more than if they'd never given me the freebie (and I'd stuck to my special rate)

Cancel your subscription and you will get another deal (usually 30% off) in a few weeks as a max.

SpaceStockFootage · « **Reply #116 on:** January 22, 2023, 00:21 »

Yeah, you probably got a deal for upgrading for the first 3,6, 12 months or something.

Reimar · « **Reply #117 on:** January 27, 2023, 09:09 »

Any news on this Mat? My free subscription runs out next week.
If not free, how about a deeper discount for contributors?

Reimar, I think we will have to accept that there will be no more free subscription.

That was a really nice extra that we have no right to if Adobe decides to do it that way.

But it's a shame they don't make an official statement about it, that would at least have been respectful and honest and would have spared us such (unworthy) discussions here. No big crap lying explanations, just we don't do it anymore would have been enough for me.

Because of the free usage, I put my other photo editing programs aside and put a lot of work and energy into Photoshop. The program is very good and I don't know what other program I could use to edit my photos in the way I'm used to. So I bit the bullet and pay for it from next month.

However, it is very disappointing that the suspension of the program takes place at a time when every cent counts for stock contributors.

In the end, the bland aftertaste remains that the agencies are not our partners - even Adobe.
