Should we get longer time for our money or at least a free month as we can't arrange meets ?

No. You don't pay for meets. You pay to support the site.

If it's not worth it for you atm, don't upgrade.

I don't see why OP, we are still getting all the benefits of the site that we pay for. We don't pay to be guaranteed meets.

Going by the average numbers online at one time and I’d guess most are supporters they company would lose between £150k and £250k that month. Who would do that ??

Maybe not a free month of site supporter. Maybe extended photo allowance.

As I see it it looks like what Op is saying is the amount of services/pages/options has been reduced. And it has.

It doesn't look like he's suggesting any guaranteed meets, merely that certain options no longer exist.

I'm sure he's allowed his point without all the put-downs, many of which are unnecessarily cutting.

Peace brethren. Peace.

Tbf its shit without the £5. Why would they build features in like they do if it wasn't designed to ensure we upgrade....?

I'm fuming with myself for signing up again recently because I don't like the way the site operates, but like I say it's shit without they added features and I don't want to leave (before someone suggests it)....

This site is free, every month.

Being a site supporter doesn't change the rules or national/local/global guidelines.

The alternatives are pretty atrocious themselves to be honest, and Fab is pretty cheap. Don't personally like the way it's set up either, but that's how they've chosen to do it.

Yep, as far as I can think every feature that's currently disabled is available as a non-paying member? So in terms of what we're paying for, that's all still available, otherwise I could see the issue.

as far as im aware, all the benifits of being a site supporter are still there, unaffected, they were never about meeting people really, that part always was and is free, i stand to be corrected if wrong, but i really dont see how not being able to meet has anything to do with if you are a supporter or not, why does everyone want a reduction in everything because of the virus, i understand some have lost jobs etc, but there always have and always have been systems in place to help, times are hard for us all, but i walked through town on saturday night, all the resturants were busy, as were the pubs, so people obviously still have money to burn, the bill for this virus is going to cause a recesion like we have never seen before, or in our life times, the uk owes i think 200 trillion pounds, and rising, scary stuff, and inevetably we will have more people on benifits, so if you are worried about 5 pounds, for some extra fetures on a swinging site, then i think you have small problems, im not trying to have a go, but im sick of people saying, and alot are, well there is a virus so i want money off, what about the busness thats struggling to suvive, ot the goverment, who im not a fan of btw, are struggling to keep services going. look at the bigger picture, if we have to make sacrifices then we must. anyway my first post stands, if you dont want to pay the 5 pounds then dont

No we shouldn't. Everyone else above has provided their rationale, which I support and I haven't got anything additional to add.

If you're really "fuming" over a fiver for a swingers website then I suggest you take a step back, meditate or do whatever calms you down.

You're getting everything you paid for. The extra photos, videos, bigger inbox etc. The meet feature was free.

LOL, bless. I don’t know about you but I don’t think a free month for not being able to arrange meets for the lone Male profiles would help. Covid or no, they would go bankrupt

After just renewing, I have noticed that my £5 now only gets me 45 days instead of 50 days!

Is that shrinkflation?

Very quietly done. Don't remember seeing any announcement.

I've just checked. Gold is 35 days. Silver is 60. At least that's what it told me.

Same as it's been for as long as I can remember.

To be honest it's clever marketing. £5 every 50 days doesn't sound alot. But when you work it out over a year then there are cheaper sites. Where fab has the edge is that everyone left the other main rival and came to Fabs. So people go where the masses are.

As for any form of refund then The answer is no you shouldn't. You still get what you pay for.
