Popup about pro stops me from watching the course I choosed?!

Signed up today since a course that fitted me needs perfectly, swallowed the $25. Started the course got 30 secs into the first movie and boom, a popup telling me to upgrade to pro and a button saying next video. Oh well I thought Ill just continue, pushed the button that said next movie. To my dismay it did what it said it ended my current video and skipped to the next.

This happens as soon as I enter video now. And no chance in hell that I will upgrade to pro this way.

WTH. Now when I go back to try watching the forced skipped videos it requires an Pro-account. What kind of scam is this? I guess if I upgrade same will happen with upgrading Techdegree account.

Hi Mattias,

Which course were you trying to watch? Some courses can only be accessed with a Pro subscription. These courses are marked with the word "Pro" in the bottom left corner of the course tile. Any videos you try to watch in these courses will only be a short preview.

But the regular subscription still gives you a ton of content. Most, if not all, of the tracks can be fully completed without a pro subscription.

Treehouse support has helped me in a very good and patient way. The course I wanted was Deployment with Capistrano. No where, yesterday did it say it was a pro course. I have screenshots to prove it. But screen shots.. oh well...

Treehouse has solved this. All kudos to them.
