How do I download the purchases? This is INSANITY.

    Frustration on multiple levels.

    Appears WordPress has done away with supporting customers and instead making me post publicly every time I need/want support?

    Oh wait… I can pay even more to get email support… more… over the thousands of dollars I already spend every year.

    So yes, it appears there’s no longer a way to communicate with WordPress directly via email unless I pay an additional monthly fee, so I have to publicly expose everything?

    Fun.

    Please review this video:
    – https://youtu.be/7If8EZnm0GA

    How do I get access to the plugins I’ve purchased as ZIP files, like it’s been for the past 15 years with WordPress?

    And, we spend thousands of dollars a year with no way to actually directly communicate with you now. Maybe people spending over a certain threshhold should be automatically included in email support? Just a suggestion.

    How would you feel as a customer like us?

    Frustration.

    Please let me know how/where I get the ZIP files.

    WP.com: Yes
    Jetpack: No
    Correct account: Yes

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to moderators and staff)

    I’ve followed all the tutorials. As you can see in the video, the only plugin showing on the “Active Upgrades” is Akismet. None of the other plugins we paid for Jan-May are showing on the page. https://wordpress.com/me/purchases

    And that I have to post publicly, or be held hostage to paying more (even the measly $64/year) is a really junky way to treat someone who has been a paying customer for more than a decade.
