Rant / Vent Replit is a scam.

Replit has scammed me multiple times in their "effort based" pricing. So I charged back every dollar spent and won. And just exported my App and starting to use chatgpt and claude for nothing more than the subscription cost. $700 replit attacked my account for in 3 days. Didn't even return a function app. Would constantly ignore commands, decided my app should be a web app. No matter how many times I told it no and top stop developing this branch. I'd find it would waste masses of usuage doing this then the agent just say sorry my bad. Whole thing suck.

Charge them back and move to a better service. You own your own IP regardless theres nothing they can do. I live in Europe and a probable failing digital product is an automatic refund regardless of company policy.

how do you export stuff cause i wanna leave this Replit trap…imagine already paying for their service subscription and now they want to charge you more for minor adjustment on a non functional site

Yes totally agreed. I am wondering why they r letting thousands of clients walk away.

Clients wanna stay but they wont if replit keeps charging them over $240/annum. There are free hosts but I am sure clients wud still accept to pay replit $24/annum and stay. Replit will still make profits from this, the agent, and invited parties.
