This is a pretty common practice nowadays. Please tell me you guys didn't really thing your lifetime license was going to literally last for the rest of your lives?

As @I know SEO stated, @weblues can do as he pleases. Is this a complete load of horseshit? Absolutely. Is this a bad business move? For sure. Is this money-grabbing because Followliker thinks they are the only service on the market? Very much so. But it's his game. The only thing you can do if you aren't pleased with this action is to cancel your subscription and move to a different product.

The only way to get this resolved by @weblues is to open a shitlist. It seems that the FL support is very thin. I think a "class action" shitlist of the product which threatens his very lucrative sales thread, which is probably a good percentage of business, would cause some action. But you lazy fucks actually have to do it.

I'm a FL customer but I haven't received any email saying I have to pay a monthly fee. If I do get that email then I will have no problem starting a Shit List thread and raising hell about the change in agreement. At the very least, existing customers should be given a refund if they don't wish to move forward under a subscription/service fee business model.

Why hasn't someone made a Shit List thread yet if this is really happening?

I am subscriber for example. I expected few years of service, not 1 year. Let's say 2-3 years is realistic, anything shorter than that is false advertising. Anything over 3 years is more than fair. I know some cases with gaming bots, where unlimited license programs changed policies into 2 years subscription, from the moment of change in policy.
 
They already started scamming customers,
If you forget your licence password Than you have to pay FINE, WTF.
 
Ok guys, I wanted to say that I have the privilege of being the first to open a shitlist thread for FollowLiker - https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/s...-license-now-has-monthly-subscription.961505/

Open one up yourselves, or add to what I started.

Two things will happen, 1. FollowLiker will do a fair program and provide those that have a lifetime license with free upgrades, but maybe charge for priority support, with a new monthly fee for new owners; or 2. New users will think twice about buying FollowLiker.

your thread is closed!!! LOL they dont allow shitist now either
 
Another unhappy FL customer here.

I've received that email (Follow Liker - Subscription Introduction Notice) and it isn't anything good. In my case, my SMM efforts aren't getting good results, bad follower rate and too many unlocks.

I'm not sure if it's interesting for me to pay monthly if it isn't getting its work made nicely!

I see some people here are getting results, but look at old threads and you'll see there are too many guys having a hard time to get it really done.
 
Are there any good competitors? Because comes September, I'm switching to something else. I'm not gonna pay after buying a lifetime service.

Would the fact that they are going monthly suggest they are worried they might be shut down and don't want a lot of potentially unhappy people buying lifetime licenses? Just a thought..

My thoughts exactly, a lot easier to refund smaller amounts.
 
I'm curious to see where this will go. I would like to know what are probable scenarios for this?

1) refunds
2) extended subscription time for all existing users, turning their lifetime licenses into several months of subscription
3) grandfather policy
4) no protection at all. FL will do as they please with no consequence

I'll be damned if I'll pay steak and lobster pricing for a McDonalds hamburger.

I got the official email from Followliker today.
"You will be required to key into the subscription program on or before September 1, 2017." Fee is $5.99 per month.
"The subscription plan will do two things:
- Allow the FollowLiker team to employ more hands in handling the frequent changes being made by the social networks.
- Increase the number of Followliker license servers distributed around the world"

In other words, if you don't sign up for the monthly fee, your current FL software may stop working, or act in such a way for the social medias (Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest, Tumblr) to notice you are using a bot and ban your account.

I'll need to start thinking about moving over to Gramdominator (did I spell it correctly?), and see if they offer better program options when compared to Followliker. I knew that Massplanner was better than Followliker, but decided to use FL because of the lower pricing. Now FollowLiker's pricing is about $13.57 a month, when taking the $97 one-time fee and adding it to the 5.99/month.
Please correct me if I'm wrong, but was Massplanner was not more than $14/month for unlimited version with all the great modules?
So, pricing wise, Followliker wants to compare itself to Massplanner. I'm sorry FL, but not even close. MP had options where it would stop for 1-2 or 6 hours in the middle of the day, and then continue. FL is still a simple bot that continues until all the tasks are done for the day. That is why we all have to create several instances to make it look more human. And, that's just one comparison.

Don't forget to add the tax! ;) , they add the tax when you checkout.

How would this make any sense? They're still charging a $97 initial fee. They're just lining more pockets in. If anything, this is going to help them out a lot.

Having a one-time payment means they need an influx of customers monthly and need to advertise and spread the word more. Bad for us as more publicity.

Having a subscription keeps their monthly payment at ease and they won't need an influx of customers so they can settle down on advertising.

PLUS it's fucking $6/month. If you're not making at least $6/month with FL, you shouldn't use it anyways.
