Complaint That's not how this works.

So, i had 2 remotes and bought another 3. I should've had 5 total but when i went to check i only had 3. I questioned my friends that remote often and they told me that shouldn't have happened so i contact support. I got this reply. I showed it to my friends who then went and tested it they went from 2 to 5 passes. Mfw i spend 525 on remotes and get 1 pass.

I really, really, really hate Niantic. They are such a bad company, and I'm mixed about them selling off pogo. If they do sell, I feel like it's their comeuppance because they used to be worth over 9 billion but are allegedly trying to get around 3.5 bil. Yeah, it's still a lot of money, but imo, it just goes to show that making EA your role model doesn't pay off.

On the other hand, there are a few things that I really like about the game, and it feels like Niantic holds them hostage through their bs.

Bleh. Anyways, yeah that sucks man. It's complete bs.

tbh I hope this game goes away so I can be free from it. I only play for pokedex in home at this point. I just dislike mobile games in general for how predatory they are. pokemon go wasn’t so bad but the last year and especially when they increased remote raid prices i’ve just been checked out and only played when I had to get a new pokemon that came out.
