    Hey PT Taps, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

     

    Can you let us know how you upgraded your account?

     

    Did you do it directly through our website and paid with your credit card, or through the mobile app and paid through iTunes/Google Play?

      Check your Plan page. What plan does it show you on? If it says Basic, that is the free plan and you've either not upgraded the account, or you've accidentally upgraded the wrong account/started a new account. If that's the case, use the credit card charge lookup tool to identify the account you're being charged for.
