 * Paid $30 to upgrade to pro version 2.4 and used it just fine on my website. It’s
   seasonal so we didn’t check it for a while. Got two months out of it when he 
   upgraded to a new version — this after I paid for lifetime support — and he disabled
   somehow the functioning of the plugin we purchased.
 * Now he’s up to version 3 and those of us with “lifetime” support and upgrades
   are totally screwed.

 * Your information is just plain wrong, dude.
 * First, if you look at the [release notes for VFB Pro 2.x](http://classic.vfbpro.com/release-notes/),
   you can see that we’ve released updates to that track **after** 3.0 came out.
   Version 2.5 is the latest at the time I write this, so maybe you should check
   the email you used to purchase the plugin in the first place to get the latest
   copy. Sounds to me like you ran into the bug that affects WordPress 4.2 that 
   _we fixed back in April_.
 * I’m not sure how a bug, that we fixed, implies we “disabled somehow the functioning”.
   We can’t even do that and have no interest in doing so.
 * Second, I don’t know when you purchased because it seems you’ve never attempted
   to contact me. But, we have never stated on our website that we provide _lifetime_
   support. We don’t charge a yearly renewal fee, if that’s what you are confused
   about.
 * If you had tried to contact us first, we would have been happy to help you. Instead,
   you claim I’m trying to rip you off or something, which implies that I’m dishonest
   and that’s just not the case.
 * [You can contact us here](http://vfbpro.com/pages/contact) if you’d like help
   with your upgrade troubles.

 * Just read the reviews from everyone, I’m not the only one stiffed here. We’ve
   gone to a new developer, one who knows what PRO means.

 * Everyone is entitled to their opinion. Best of luck.
