Wall of Shame

Among them I did have Kopify AI which at first was really promising. Though it wasn't really expensive, I did refund it before the 60-day period because the founder was not answering and that most templates were never completed with errors…

Krater.ai too? I was planning to take it from dealfuel.

That’s really crumby - besides the disappointment which is ‘Run the World’ I also purchased ‘RankTracker’ a couple of years ago. Yeah, logged in and they are demanding $86 / year to continue with the service. :frowning: Looks like I’ll need to master Google Analytics. Thank heavens for “illow”!

That’s a long list, [Haroon Mansoori](mention:9cb0d73a-f505-40ce-b20f-78fda433ecdd "/index.php?r=user%2Fprofile&cguid=9cb0d73a-f505-40ce-b20f-78fda433ecdd"). Truly disappointing.

PassCamp was shut down in August. That was deal from few years back.

Only one which I got really annoyed was with PepperType.ai.. Don't have the above tools but was planning for krater.ai

Hi Haroon, I’ve been testing TaskMagic for the last few days - it’s okay so far with limitations - and not sure what #NOTORIOUS-FOUNDER means? Can you enlighten me with the problems with the app?

I missed the go zen feature trimming, what was cut?

I’m going through all my LTDs and compling a list of dead and ones that are changing terms. I’ll send it over when I’m done.

Just found out [https://revscog.com](https://revscog.com) has shut down due to the carrier regulation changes that took place this summer. Their goodbye message is pretty tone deaf and unappologetic

Revscog was promoted by Katie herself… adding it to the list now..\ 

SNIPLY got acquired, but so far LTDs being honored. Hope stays that way. Keeping an eye on this.

I had got one just code of Sniply, so far unused, but was planning to use it.

I notice EmailDelivery (Number 21) is on the list. I was contemplating a purchase cause I thought it looked really cool.\ \ What is the issue with it?

I am using Luna.ai tier 1 and nothing changed, why TD-BUYERS-DISHONORED ?

Weird it was white until I hit send.

Oh and to add insult to injury. The Team Postly FREE account is basically what it looks like the LTD tier ONE is getting throttled down to.

Once again it’s another repeat of the tricks. Tool creator and AppSumo first create ambiguous offer, and then the creator exploit such ‘loopholes’ they created in the name of “business preservation”, either by themselves or in collusion with AppSumo and easily get away with it. You can never rely on creators like that, even if they offer subscription plans, because they can easily switch their position.
