LIMITED TIME: $6 USD a month to subscribe to Humble Choice Premium for 6 months. Ends January 1, 2021 at 9:59:59 AM PST. Reactivated

Link

That’s one hell of a deal if I ever saw one, currently using the $8 for 6 months coupon (which I already thought was a great deal), probably going to cancel that and get this instead.

Note: You will lose the discount if you pause a month.

A few more fun bits of information for you all!

I cancelled my subscription (as I had already paid for this months at $12). It had me pay right then and now, but it changed my next billing date to Feb.

BUT if you look at the coupon page: https://www.humblebundle.com/home/coupons it says it is only valid until Valid until Jun 4, 2021, 10:00:00 AM.

That would mean, Jan (1), Feb(2), Mar(3), Apr(4), May(5) and my coupon would fall off before I paid for the 6th month. Going to ask support about this now.

Some people have had some success pausing and then unpausing their sub but it didn't work for me.
I paused and unpaused and tried paying early to see if I was getting asked for 6 or 12 bucks, and it's 12 bucks as usual.

Not sure if they caught up with the trick and have changed the way the deal is applied to avoid current Classic subs getting the discount.

i managed to get this 6$ coupon by cancelling it and subscribing again. It said "Your next bill is for US$6 on February 26, 2021"
so i probably get january choice without paying again, hopefully

Hpw curious, I got december with this promo by unpausing - my membership tells me I will be charged 6$ on Jan 29.

From past experience with pausing and such, it seems to me that Humble has you paused for January and will auto-charge you for the Feb bundle...but good luck!

Thanks. I don't know if I'll risk it because it sounds like a sure way to lose my classic plan and to find out only in 6 months.
Happy Holidays :)

I am an old subscriber of Humble Monthly and this Humble Choice thing. So this new subscription plan grants you all the all 14 games per month for $6? How was the quality the previous months, does this mean maybe they are trying to lure people into subscribing for lesser quality games?

Even if they are inferior games it would be still cheaper than the competitors. $0.42 per game isn't a bad deal. Also, if they mess up, you can pause and be done with it.

I bought a 12 month $132 ($11 per month) plan back in early December, because I thought it came with 1 month of an EA Plan. It turns out they worded that all weirdly, I had to pay a reduced cost to get that plan and I wasn't interested on that level, I may not even have found the time to use it and as it turned out my gaming laptop died in me a couple of weeks ago and I haven't gotten a replacement yet. Then I saw a $99 plan with 'conditions' but I couldn't get the conditions page due to not being logged in and when being logged in being a subscriber of an already existent plan. I hope it was only for new subscribers. Now they reveal this? On the plus side, I have heard it's $12 a month for Classic plan people, so that's +$1 for 6 months. I think these people save $24 over a year. Of course, they could subscribe for a year in half a years time, but then they'll likely miss whatever Christmas deal they might have gotten next year. I do feel robbed though over my poor decision, especially as it was influenced by their questionable grammar on the EA thing.

Being a HB subscriber makes you feel robbed everyday due to all the promos they do for new customers only ;)

I appreciate the bundle contents nonetheless - but only if I pay at most 12$ (classic plan) for them, for me, no other site gives this quality of games and I don't generally buy games full price due to backlog.

Something is not working as it should with this promotion. Got the mail and I can see the coupon in my HB account, but the subscription page still wants to bill me US$12 as usual.

Thanks op.

Actually bought the 12 months for 99 usd during the november black friday sale (got a free month as well). So I already got this month's december humble choice. I've then paused my subscription (12 months left) and used this coupon on an older account (since at the beginning it didn't require a new subscription).

Downside: I got december twice.

But it provided me games to trade with and I was able to trade overcooked 2 + dlcs for .hack//g.u. last recode which I've been wanting for months. So still a win for me. Still have 13 games I can trade for missing humble choice or bundles I didn't get.

Also, I'm set for a year and a half of humble choice subscription. Just need to remember to go pause on the other account every month and I"m good to go. Thank you for sharing the coupon!

Does this mean that you have to stay subscribed for 6 months or can you just take one month for example and then unsubscribe when you get the bundle?

Comment has been collapsed.

This promotion is working on a per month basis, it doesn't charge the whole 6 months upfront so you can cancel at any time, if you cancel/pause during the first 6 months, you just lose the promotion (ie, you bought first month for 6$ and paused the 2nd, this promotion would end and you would go back to the default subscription)

note that I don't know what sub a person goes "back" to.

Would probably be worth it if you would have wanted more games that you'll likely never play. Still haven't played any of the games in the Monthly i bought before Halloween.

Is there a way to do it without using a card? If my paypal was to run out of funds wouldn't it just cancel the subscription why they want my card detes yo? If John Wick needed my help in Fortnite, I'd think about it. But this is HB...

I did this with paypal because my CC was having troubles with HB. You just need to make paypal your default payment method.

If their payment charge fails, they generally send you a notice and ask you to provide another payment method, if you are concerned they might cancel your sub right away, you can just make an effort to not run out of funds :p

You need to have card added to your paypal, if you don't you can't buy monthly with pp.

Ah I wasn't sure what info pp shared with HB, I know pp asks me if "xxx card" is the one I want to use for payment but I figured it might work with just wallet money...

A member of our support team needs to verify the information and will complete the order as soon as it is resolved.

I tried unpausing but it didn't work. Some have had success canceling and subscribing again but since the classic plan is not available anymore, that sounds like a big HB scam so I guess I'll stay paused.
Guess I could get my gf to use her account to sub just for that. Might be much ado about nothing though.

Ok my ticket might take a while to be answered, the automated response mentioned how their offices are closed for the holidays and that will affect the reviewing of tickets. And since i'm a proud member of Impatient Anonymous, i decided to unpause my classic month-to-month sub and proceed with payment. Well, it makes it pretty clear that you stay on your month-to-month classic plan even after the 6 months period. You just return to your normal double price. And you don't have to pay the whole price at once, just need to pay each and every of those 6 months if you want to keep the discount. I know some of these mentioned already, just posting my whole experience. Anyway, so it's +1 from me that it's totally safe to use the offer without worrying about losing your classic plan.

I'm not entirely sure what you did here. So you unpaused your classic plan and payed 12 for the december bundle and got the deal to activate?

Unpaused and the price for the December bundle was $6 at the checkout. It applied the discount automatically. And it said after those 6 months the classic plan will go back to its original price.

Ah. Well, you're one of the lucky ones, then. If I unpause, I still can't get the deal and it tries to charge me $12 for december.

Hmm well it's nice that you got confirmation. I must've missed where it said it'll go back to original price (or they only tell you after confirming purchase? I stopped right before pressing 'pay now'), all I could find was "Subsequent months will be billed at $21.58/month".

Not sure now, but i think it was at the preview of the email after purchase, where it says to choose your games.

Btw support replied to me before a couple of hours or so with the following: "The promotion is $6 USD a month to subscribe to Humble Classic for 6 months. If you chose to stay subscribed beyond the 6 Months the price will return to $12 per month."

That automated response scared me, i didn't expect them to reply that fast.

I wasn't sure on this response, it felt like something was off because of the recurring subscription price on payment page, but I read the FAQ and it says "As long as you don't cancel your subscription after the launch of Humble Choice you will retain the Classic plan.". So I think everything's ok.

The link wouldn't work for me saying I had an active plan, yet somehow when I then looked at my renewal amount in 2 days, it said $6 and the price breakdown had me already signed up for the 6 months at $6 rate. I'm not sure how it happened, but anyone else getting the error may want to see if they're somehow on the plan too!

6$ is nothing, even if i need buy all 6 months, there will be at least some games for giveaways.. Bought literally every monthly until 2019 nov, then stopped, this will bring me back. But ill stop after the 6 months, not going to pay 18$ for these bundles, for that price i can buy the 1-2 game interest me during sales and that way at least that developer gets the whole (-30%) money who created my wishlisted game.
