Lightroom CC: "Edit Disabled while your subscription is expired"
I am a former Photography CC plan subscriber. I signed up for the free trial and in the Adobe CC app that I download from it tells me I'm on a free trial. Howeber, in Lightroom CC when I click edit it says "Edit Disabled while your subscription is expired". I spent over 30 minutes in chat with your representative and he could not comprehend what I was explaining to him. He kept telling me my subscription was expired. I had to explain three times before he said he's transfer me to the technical support team, and he said I would connect instantly. However I go into queue with a 5 minute wait.
I should not have to spend this much time even reaching a point where someone understands my issue, you should hire people that have adequate command of the english language and can read a problem description the first time. I already was not thrilled with the idea of really having to spend 250 a year to get all the functionality I would like but was going to give this app a chance for a few days.
At this point between the customer service experience and the fact that I would have to continue to pay in perpetuity to even use your product, I will cut my losses and go to another product that doesn't have this model and has better customer experience.

I am truly sorry you had a frustrating experience with customer service. I totally get where you're coming from and don't want to sound patronizing. So...
What, if anything, can we do to make it right?
Sincerely,
Rick

After 30 minutes i asked for a complementary month when it was clear he wasn't getting it. You've already gotten a lot of my money, I had the Photography plan for the majority of the time since 2014. After getting over $400 just for software use from me (not to mention previous purchases of Lightroom 3, 4 and 5 before you started the CC plan), I don't think a free month was much to ask for given that I am pretty clearly experiencing a bug and given that he'd already wasted 30 minutes of my time not paying attention to what I was saying.
At this point, don't bother. I was only going to try the new lightroom ahead of paying for On1, which won't require me to pay in perpetuity. You helped me make the decision much easier last night.
