All assumed numbers, but say you bought an iPhone 12 in 2020 on discount for say INR. 50,000 instead of mrp of 75,000 In 2021 you want to upgrade to iPhone 13 in exchange of the iPhone 12, what would the difference to be paid be? Scenario 1 : Cost of iPhone 13 (75k) - exchange value of iPhone 12 (40k) + Discount availed originally (25k) = 60,000 Or Scenario 2 : Cost of iPhone 13 (75k) - exchange value of iPhone 12 (40k) = 35,000 You should have come up with a langar analogy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PS+Extra is offering good content for ₹400 a month. Them offering discounts today at Launch or Retrospective basis is practically the same thing. As 90% of the user base is already on discounted subs. Only if they had mentioned or outlined this fact at announcement ppl would have understood & accepted this fact. Piss poor pathetic planning to get hopes & hypes up & even pushing ppl towards more discounted stack ups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be happy with what we give and don't criticise us!! Ppl don’t like to believe this but just as 90% of PSplus user base is discounted stack. Same is with GamesPass…..just that the discount is on extreme levels. (& no one was asked to forfeit either for obvious reasons) So obviously no one is leaving anything….it’s just vocal drama on Twitter from both sides.

Ya they could have mentioned that before by saying “suck it losers, we want our money back..” ? I am glad they didn’t ask for interest on the discount amount ?? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
