I am a product manager at GitLab and my focus is on making renewals as easy and pain-free as possible for customers. I am very sorry that you had such a confusing and frustrating experience here. We are working on a number of issues that will improve this process, including: * Making Gitlab.com aware of who the payment owner is so we can more accurately target the renewal banner - https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/growth/product/-/issues/1551 https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/growth/product/-/issues/1551 * Updating the renewal banner copy for group owners that aren't payment owners so they don't attempt to renew if they do not have the right permissions - https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/growth/product/-/issues/1553 https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/growth/product/-/issues/1553 * Moving the renewal behavior from the customers portal into Gitlab.com so payment owners can more easily manage their subscription and renewal - https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/growth/product/-/issues/1528 https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/growth/product/-/issues/1528 * Adjusting how we do "true-ups" so they are done quarterly and pro-rated to the end of the subscription instead of in arrears - https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/customers-gitlab-com/-/issues/1303 https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/customers-gitlab-com/-/issues/... I would love to chat with you to learn more about the challenges you experienced and to review some of our plans to make things better if you're up for it.
