I apologise if there has been some sort of misunderstanding. When I first launched the site I publicised the fact that it was in open beta whilst I was ironing out any obvious bugs and testing things out. I also had a banner message in the settings page stating this.

The message stated: "You are currently on a Free Pro Subscription as a thank you for being a beta tester. This free subscription will come to an end on 5th December 2019. You can still start a subscription now if you wish to support AnonAddy."

When the site's open beta came to an end I sent an email to all those who had signed up. As a thank you, this email let all users know that they would have an additional 3 months to continue using all the Pro features of the site for free.

I then sent 2 more emails shortly before this free subscription came to an end which is shown in your screenshot, giving users the choice to update their emails if they didn't wish to subscribe.

I have also offered all beta users a discount on both Lite and Pro plans.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Best, Will
