Allow long-time subscribers to access the Spotify Basic plans.

[bāozǐ]

For context, I am a 10-year subscriber (9.5 years Premium, 0,5 years Basic). After unsubscribing for one month, I permanently lost access to my Basic Duo Plan, which seems unfair.

This Spotify community post outlines that only those who subscribe to Premium Individual, Family or Duo before June 20th, 2024 are eligible to access the Basic Plans.

It seems like a huge oversight that pausing your Spotify subscription automatically locks you out of this eligibility, regardless of how long you've been a subscriber.

At the bare minimum, there should be a one month grace period where you are eligible to resubscribe to your old basic plan.
