After receiving emails and reading FAQ’s selling the Lifetime plex pass at $249.99 I went to purchase it today prior to July 1st 2026 price rise only to find that in the UK account the price is actually higher for the same product at £299.99 which is the equivalent of nearly $400.00 ?? Why the 2 tier pricing? This is not right or fair.

Did you look in an app store? These have sometimes very steep surcharges.  
Always try and buy directly from the [plex.tv](http://plex.tv) website.

I got this on their website:

…which is pretty bang on the exchange rate.

It looks like I was seeing the price according to an AppStore who mark up the prices? But I could swear I checked the web site and the app and both were telling me the same. Cookies by location? Or something else? Who knows. Plex very quickly. Got back to me with a link to the correct price so well done Plex. It makes me feel like the lifetime pass was the correct thing to do. Great service guys!
