How to opt-out to automatic Hi-Fi upgrade

@DarthGoofy I think it will be effective from the 8th of July, onwards.

***********

Hmm, anyway, this looks like Deezer is slowly pushing for HiFi in response to Apple Music having lossless as default.  Shouldn't Deezer just implement this without charging people for more cost?  I think people would be more welcoming of this if done without shocking people with being charged more.

My problem is not with the rise for better service and improving artists payments but with that being a jump of 60% increase at once in my case.

Hi Jaime, thanks for your reply. What does this mean for the other plans? Is there a document somewhere we can consult on pricing? 

I’m getting a little confused @Jaime.. Is Deezer going to be offering a free upgrade to ALL users (including those outside Belgium and Argentina) who currently subscribe to the basic MP3 service? Is the high fidelity mentioned in this thread the existing CD quality lossless, or is it a high resolution service also offered by Tidal and Apple Music (max 24-bit 192kHz for no extra cost in the case of AM)?

Many thanks. 

You can check if you have best price on your account contacting them:

https://support.deezer.com/hc/en-gb/requests/new

They may be able to reduce your price if there’s something available.

So you decide to not only raise the monthly fee by 13% but are also going to sell this cheap excuse??

Tell me :  of these 2 € exactly how much is going to the artists? And how much will add to the yearly profit of Deezer?

Next remark : did you consider that raising the sound quality also means that streaming will cost more data to your users? So it’s not just the 2 euro you charge us extra for something we didn’t ask but also added costs to telecom subscriptions because of your policy.

In my case : Spotify just got cheaper than you guys for a Family account. Guess what I will be doing 

You can still stream 320K MP3 even on Hifi service or lower.

Hi @Walter Cordemans Around 70% of our revenues go to support the artists and creators on the platform and we use the remaining 30% to build new features and make Deezer better for all of our users. 
We appreciate that not all users will want to enable HiFi immediately and it may not be something everyone wants to enable on their mobile plan. But when you’re on WiFi, lossless HiFi audio provides you with a much better musical experience, just like the artist wanted it to sound. HiFi is becoming more and more mainstream as a choice for listeners and we hope that Deezer continues to bring you great value for money combined with one of the best music catalogs in the world. 
Thanks 

Strange thing is that from 8 July I would get the high fidelity sound occording to the mail. But nothing seems changed. Both in IOS app and desktop. Did not really feel the need fot HIFI sound right but still...

Hello @Alexander Desmedt,

you should be able to switch to HiFi in the audio settings.
