Sonys Black Friday upgrade is stupid. (piefed.social)

They are only offering me a deal to upgrade to Premium for the next 18 days for 86 cents, THEN they'll charge me the full amount for the year. So basically I'm being penalized for when my subscription ends.

What the actual hell is this?

I just happened to get a great deal from this accidentally.

My subscription renews on Dec. 1, and my credit card company actually flagged the $135 or so for the middle-tier service that Sony tried to put on my card as suspicious so they didn't process the payment. As a result, my plan was canceled for a moment.

But when I looked at renewing, they were running this 30% off deal, and I was able to get Premium for $111. So...I went with that of course.

As an aside: it's wild to me Sony doesn't let everyone do game trials. Or at least stream game trials. I tried Baldur's Gate 3 over streaming with this Premium plan and ended up buying it.
