### 󠀁[False Description/Advertising on Github](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/false-description-advertising-on-github/)󠁿

 [philipgolub](https://profiles.wordpress.org/philipgolub/) 07 Sgiugn 2022

I am currently looking for free plugins for my website so that I can live chat with
customers. I currently use the messenger plugin that is completely free but wanted
to explore different options. I was intrigued in this plugin when I read the following
description on their github code description, Not a stripped down “Free” version,
but a fully loaded product. – Free for life. No hidden fees or unfair restrictions.–
Free for single use and teams of up to 10 agents. Of course, that is just bs. I 
installed their plugin and I was delighted to see the following plans with a notification
of a 15 day trial: Starter $29/month Growth current trial $49/month Scale $149/month
Scale Plus $299/month I just deleted the plugin and so should you. Next time, do
not advertise free when you are charging for a “premium” product.

This is a terrific software! Chat in the admin to make larger. Read the small characters
badly.
