Proton.me uses dishonest marketing tactics

Originally when I signed up for proton unlimited they advertised it as being a student discounted plan not a coupon… Now I go to renew my membership, and it’s suddenly a coupon and not a plan anymore…. My account shows it as being a plan not a discount or coupon. It shows it as being a discounted plan. This is what is pushing me away from their service. Now going back to a free plan and using Mullvad VPN once again.

Where do they advertise a student discount? I can find no mention of one anywhere, except for websites stating clearly that proton offers no student discount.
