Adobe Stock Credits vs. Subscription?

Hello,

I had been paying for an Adobe Stock Subscription and decided that Adobe Credit Packs were actually more suited to my needs as I needed to purchase Extended Licenses and it was cheapest to do this with Credit Packs. When trying to figure out whether I needed a Plan or Credits I read a blurb that said "Plans vs. Credits, Which is right for you?" and it identified "you can buy credits or plans separately or combine them". So I purchased a credit pack and cancelled my Adobe Stock Subscription. When I cancelled via the online chat the person assisting me asked why I was cancelling and I explained that the credit packs better suited my needs. He proceeded with cancelling my subscription and did not mention anything about losing my existing credits which I paid a lot of additional money for, however my existing credits disappeared. When I contact support they identified that I am out of luck and have lost my credits because I cancelled my subscription.

Has anyone experienced this? Why am I losing my credits if it says credits can be used without a subscription and if I paid additional money on top of my subscription for the credits?

    I did both of those things and no luck!

    The original individual I was speaking via chat kept reporting that I permanently lost my credits because I cancelled my adobe stock subscription. I am not sure if they were confusing credits with the 10 free monthly images that you get from adobe stock subscription because they also confirmed that credits can be used with or without a subscription.


    Thanks for the update Kelly. This is definitely unexpected and I do have an engineer lined up to take a look at this. One more request, can you please sign into https://accounts.adobe.com and can you tell me if on that main page, do you see any Stock items? Are there any messages associated with any of the Stock items there? A screenshot would also be helpful.

    Hi Kelly,

    Sorry to hear that.

    I did go through your account details and noticed that you had Adobe Stock 10 images a month plan which has already been cancelled and all the assets/images have already been used.

    Additionally, you have also purchased credit pack which is valid until 12/11/2018.

    Please help me understand which assets are you referring to so that I can further assist you. Also, please share the case reference number so that I can check your interaction with our support team.

    Regards

    Thanks for the response,

    I am looking to access my remaining 8 credits from the credit pack. I

    believe I only used 72/80 credits.

    My case number is ADB-1098730-C8T0

    Thank you,

    Kelly

    The only thing I see having to do with Adobe Stock is that my "adobe stock on demand" has expired. I see nothing else on this page about stock items.

    I haven't included a screen shot because I see personal information on this page and I assuming this is a public forum!?

    Thanks so much for your help!


    Hi Kelly,

    Thanks for this information, correct it's a public forum.
