MoviePass looks to be running into even more trouble as it's been revealed that some subscribers who canceled their membership have now been un-canceled without their permission. MoviePass was launched in 2012 but wasn't widely known until 2017 when they dropped their price to $9.95 a month for unlimited movies.

MoviePass' price drop caused thousands of movie buffs to flock to the service since $9.95 is around the price of one ticket at a typical movie theater, depending on what time of the day it is. While the price drop was an incredible deal for subscribers, it was always a mystery on how MoviePass was making money since they were still paying the full price of the tickets purchased through their app. So, it wasn't a surprise when MoviePass ran into financial trouble, as they recently had to borrow $5 million to keep the service up and running after an unexpected service outage. MoviePass will soon be changing their business model to limit users to seeing three movies a month, and it's this plan that is likely to blame for the accusations that MoviePass is un-canceling members.

As reported by Business Insider, some subscribers of MoviePass noticed that they had gotten an email saying that their new plan with the ability to see three movies a month would be starting on August 15, even though they had already canceled the service. A notice at the bottom of the email reads, "Please note: if you had previously requested cancellation prior to opting-in, your opt-in to the new plan will take priority and your account will not be canceled." Business Insider also reported that some people who had tried to re-cancel their account received an error message and was not able to get themselves out of their subscription.

This is possibly happening with subscribers who recently canceled their membership whose renewal dates are after the 15th, though it could be for any number of reasons. If it is, then that means these members are automatically being enrolled in the new plan since their renewal date is after the conversion to the new three movies a month plan. As for the inability to re-cancel subscriptions, it's possible that it's just a glitch in the MoviePass app. Regardless of the reasoning behind this issue, it has been frustrating for users especially since MoviePass has been constantly been changing their terms of service in recent months.

In April, MoviePass announced that subscribers could no longer see a movie more than once with their MoviePass card, which was initially part of their policy but was amended in order to obtain more subscribers. Things escalated even further in June and July when MoviePass introduced their high-demand pricing method for popular films and then revealed that they would be completely blocking users from seeing major releases for a set period of time after the initial release. MoviePass' stock has been plummeting for some time now, which they are attempting to fix by regaining their financial losses through new policies. MoviePass memberships will undergo this conversion on Wednesday, but it's unknown whether this will completely fix their financial situation.

Foul.:smh:
 
This would be a "decent" idea, if they did not restrict the show times available. They want people to go in the morning so they could pay less $$ for a ticket, but people work and got stuff to do.

I like the idea of being able to at least choose between 6 different films a day, rather than two and one of those films is blocked...

"It adds, "While the films and showtimes available in the app will change daily, the schedule of available film selections will be published at least a week in advance on the MoviePass website so members can plan ahead for the films they want to see.""

update from last night: really pissed me off, i was out and on my way home wanted to just go see christopher robin since it was one of two films available last i checked around noon but by around 7pm MP has removed the only two movies available in my area

i mean seriously, what is even the point of this thing?

many selections before noon, around noon there were 2 movies available and a few hours later none... on a wednesday night... and i don't even know what kind of dumb algorithm determines what movies to remove and when?
 
Well aug 15 has come and gone, same funny business. Today is meg and blacklanmen day for me. I've already watched both. :lol:

Some online are suggesting they're simply just buying time so there's no avalanche of charge backs before they fold.
 
I just want to see how everything will be once this “transition” period is over with (once everyone is on the new plan). Lucky for me, I have nice E-Ticket theater by me and it plays all the movies all day.

I wouldn't count on that lasting much longer.

The only people who are good are the ones who paid for the year.
 
Everyone who canceled check your account they renewed me even though I canceled already.

It's now saying my next billing cycle will be 9/15 :smh:

I'll straight up do a charge back if they pull this crap.
 
For all you dudes that cancelled MP, cha he your credit card info ASAP. :loI

Should be done before you cancel actually.

:rofl: @ uncancelling subscriptions.
 
After reading today’s email from Mitch it’s def a wrap for me. Basically confirmed that what’s been happening this week is the new norm. They offer you a couple ****ty movies to choose from everyday. No showtimes guaranteed. They’ve got their schedule up for movies thru the 26th and I don’t see one I’m interested in. No “major studio first runs” as they call ot.
It’s not worth the $10 anymore. I’m gonna cancel and get Sinemia until Regal saves us all and fors what aMC has done.
