Do NOT trust DistroKid

Ive read lots online of people getting scammed by distrokid. It too happened to me. I was just simply on the app putting info in for a new release when all of the sudden I get an apple wallet notification saying i bought their highest plan. I had not been on that plan, and definitely did not click anything to buy it. I took screenshots of everything and sent emails and calls. I got on a live chat and they were being super shady. I had to make a few threats which I do not like to do so they would eventually give me money back. And instead of giving me my money back of course they did some weird thing where they refunded the rest of my current plan and half of the new ultimate plan, but I got to keep the upgraded plan for the rest of the year. I did the math and they made like a few dollars off me, still unacceptable. I immediately cancelled and deleted my account with them. Just be aware.
