My current plan (that I’ve been on for about 7 years now) includes unlimited everything and global roaming across basically anywhere I’ve ever visited (only had to get a separate ESIM once)
I’m regularly getting offers from them to switch to a plan with limits and more restricted roaming for only an extra 25% more a month…!
That is not the same thing. If you took that offer you’d be worse off and couldn’t ever get it back. It’s an intentional dark pattern to screw the customer into a shittier offering.
This is just a web design fail. The “VPN Plus” plan they are on is probably an existing 12 or 24 month rate. The new offer is probably the same thing, or a special discount for 24 months of “Unlimited”, which includes like 5 extra services. They could always go back to “VPN Plus”. (I am seeing a cheaper rate of 3.99 EUR for 12m, or 2.99 for 24m https://protonvpn.com/pricing).
I have something similar with my phone plan
