Edit: Proton has REMOVED the P2P from the VPN tick on this plan since I took the screenshots. That sucks.

That is incorrect. Here is a link: https://proton.me/mail/pricing#compare-plans

Yo I see you on your link that you are right. I stand corrected. Maybe. This link says something different and so I'm not actually sure what's correct. Let me know what you think. It seems like there's some conflicting information

Interesting. That's a support article so is less likely to be up-to-date than the pricing page, but that being said I'm on Unlimited and don't know what the Plus plan provides with certainty.

Yeah you must be right with that pricing page. I think it's also unclear what is offered in terms of VPN when you actually try to purchase the Mail plus plan. At any rate, lots of ways for people to be confused about what plan includes what.

Is this for Mail Plus or Proton Unlimited? I pay for Mail Plus, and have continually gotten the "P2P is blocked" page whenever I try to redownload the Ubuntu 22.04 ISO--maybe I should complain

Although looking at the VPN section, it does appear that the Free and Mail Plus plans have the same checkboxes, so perhaps I am reading it correctly

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The column with the ticks is for Plus not for Free, so yes you should definitely complain to support.

Now this is fascinating--I'm seeing no ticks in Plus! Maybe it varies by country (located in Canada, but I think I pay in USD)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

The tick is gone for me too. Well that sucks, I guess they updated the page.
