Is it normal that I haven’t received an email since October 25, 2023?

Is it normal that I got a pop-up advertising your password manager with no way to x out of it, even though that’s one service I don’t use?

Is it normal that I had a persistent, indismissable promotional message in my Proton VPN app around the New Year?

They do the same via email. I contacted them through their help portal like they told me, and I got an email with the exact same canned response that doesn’t have anything to do with my inquiry! I’m about done with them. I pay for Unlimited and they can’t even answer a question?

Yes, I’ve been happy with the products, so I hate to do it, but I’m thinking of alternatives. If they said “Sorry, we don’t have that feature” or something it would at least answer my questions. This dodgy behavior on their part is a huge red flag.

@LinkOpensChest_wav With regards to pop-ups, you can always exit them using the X button (or a similar option on the screen depending on the pop-up), after which they should no longer appear, if you don’t have your browser set to clear cache & cookies on each exit.

We’ll make sure to forward your complaints to the appropriate team for future consideration.

There was no x on the popup. There was no way to exit other than to agree to use Proton Pass. I told you this.

How is this a response to what I wrote? How do I turn off the promotions that appear in the apps themselves? How do I turn off the popups?
