My app suddenly said "your account expires in two days". Weekend was around the corner and there is no way that I could receive one of their refill vouchers in time (I use this method for privacy). I reached out to them, asking them to add a few more days to my account so that all my devices don't get deleted when my account expires. I also emphasized, that they can of course subtract that amount of days from my next refill. I sent them my account number, encrypted with PGP, and within 12 hours, they replied: I added three more days. It's on the house. Have a good day! :)

That was really nice of them. :)

Same experience with Tutanota. :)

I accidentally purchased their most expensive plan, which I didn't need, and it took one mail and a few minutes for them to downgrade my plan and refund the difference. :D
