Hello Maya, apologies that you haven’t heard back from us yet. I’ve escalated this internally so someone from support should be in touch with you shortly.

Thank you Gayani. I believe I now have two tickets open because I had started another one today in my desperate attempt to get a response. Please feel free to combine the first one with #894795.

No worries at all, I saw we had a technical issue on our end so apologies for the inconvenience! You received your response on the following ticket number #886718.

I’m facing the same issue. I’ve sent two emails but haven’t received any ticket, response, or other communication. The first email was sent on January 11, and the second on January 15.

Hey there, I can see you received a reply from our support team on Friday (12.01.2024). Could you DM me your email address please to double check?

Hello, I haven’t received any message, mu e-mail is xxxx

Can you please check?

Hey @Time_de_Design1, I saw that you received the email to your second email address. I’ve updated the email address and support will resent the email shortly. Please make sure you delete your email address from the Forum as this is an open space.

Hi Gayani, I have a a very similar billing issue, how can I get in touch with you in order to resolve this problem?

Hey @Mateo_Reyes , for billing issues, please reach out to the support team directly via this form for help: https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/requests/new Thank you!

Hey there, I read through the thread and I tried that link you have here as well about billing information, I got the Figma design and FigJam for myself, and for my file, I have 2 other people that I’m working with, 1 of them already has the Figma design and the FigJam, so I don’t know why it automatically included them into my monthly payment which is due very soon, and as per the other person, I don’t know why it automatically added him into both the FigJam or the Figma design because I did not include him in it. Can you assist me on this matter It has been bugging me for a couple of days and the Figma assisting call line doesn’t go through.

I also wanted to add that, when I got my annual plan I didn’t check both of their monthly payments. Whenever it was even activated for them I didn’t get any notifications on Figma nor did I get any emails so that’s why I didn’t try and deal with this matter sooner before the upcoming monthly payment. until I got the email saying I have 61 dollar payment coming that to have to make soon.

@Gayani_S @Celine_Figma

I would appreciate your guy’s help, I don’t want to have this unnecessary bill to pay, and I’m confused as well, in my settings I tried to reduce the seats, but now it says I have a 176 bill going to occur in 2 days, which is 3 times more than the original amount of how much I had to pay. can somebody please reach out to me, the payment is in 2 days I don’t know how it tripled out of nowhere. if this isn’t resolved by tomorrow night I’ll have no choice but to cancel my plan tomorrow night, I do not wish to but to not have to pay that bill I might have to. so I very much would love any assistance. I have a lot of valuable information on my Figma.

Hey @Arslan_Mahmood , sorry to hear you are having issues with your billings and for the delay! I’ve checked in our backend, and the team replied you today. For your reference, your ticket number is: #928648. Please check your inbox as our support team needs some clarification on your end to resolve your issue.

To cover some basics, I share here some workarounds in the ticket that can also help others in the community who may encounter the same issue:

"Just to clarify, annual plans will always have a monthly plan attached to catch any overflow full seats added to your team. While the monthly plan cannot be removed, keeping your total full seat count within your annual plan’s coverage will ensure that there are no monthly charges.

In this case, it looks like your team currently has 3 Design full seats and 1 FigJam full seat, whereas your annual plan covers only 1 Design full seat and no FigJam full seats. Here’s how those additional full seats are charged:

- Design full seats are charged $15 a month per seat

- FigJam full seats are charged $5 a month per seat

In this case, it looks like your team currently has 3 Design full seats and 1 FigJam full seat, whereas your annual plan covers only 1 Design full seat and no FigJam full seats.

Here’s how you can check who’s included in your billing:

1. Click on the Admin Console icon next to the team name

2. Click on the Members tab at the top of the page

3. From there, downgrade any unneeded Design or FigJam full seats to “viewer-restricted” to remove them from your billing

If you decide to keep any of these full seats and convert their monthly seats to annual seats, you can do so in your team’s Settings.

These Help Center articles provide more information on each of these processes:

Manage team permissions

Manage, or renew annual subscriptions "

Sorry again for the frustration and the delay!

Hello, I am having a similar issue regarding billing, I submit a support ticket #928818 last week and have not received any response. I would appreciate any help on get this issue resolved! Thank you 🙂

Thanks for your patience in the meantime 🙏

hello @Celine_Figma

I sent an email reply as to what exactly i wanted, but i haven’t gotten a reply, so ill copy and paste the email i sent here as well, because we needed to distinguish what exactly needs to be done.

"First, I just wanted to say thank you so much for reaching out back to me, let me explain how things should have been in my Figma Billing. so at the moment, I have 3 members in total including myself, if I have any more seats than these at the moment please remove them if it’s increasing the cost. Also, I have 3 members in my Team, one of whom I never meant to add either, i don’t know how he got added and how he got added into the payments of the Figma. I noticed in the billing too that members get defaulted to being able to be entered into the payment plan themselves, unfortunately, it doesn’t give an email or a notification a member has been upgraded or else I would have dealt with this matter sooner. As for the payment, I want only have 3 seats in total, I want to have myself as a Figma design and FigJam, and I want to have Darlyn Fernandez as a Figma Designer, Harsh was only ever supposed to be able to view the files, also on his side of the client it does not even show he’s in our team but mine it does for some reason so i don’t know if that’s a bug or not, so what should remain is 2 Figma designs seats and 1 FigJam seat, 1 fig design seat has already been paid annually too aka mine, and as for the FigJam and Figma design just make them monthly so I only have to pay around 50ish this month,

Also Thank you again so much for reaching back to me i have been stressing the past couple days of about having to pay 300ish which I don’t have. Thank you so much."

also, another thing, It said that the Figma renewal subscription was tomorrow as well, and in case you guys are not able to change it in time, and the payment goes through 300 dollars would I be reimbursed, like paid back and then u guys can take away those seats that are there, Thank you, Also the extra seats I added by accident when trying to find out how to remove seats.

Hey @Arslan_Mahmood ,

I saw in our backend that our support team replied you. (We have canceled the addition of the extra annual seats for you on our end)

Please check your inbox, thank you!

Hi @Celine_Figma, can you please have someone look into my ticket (#943879) as well?

I’ve been following up on it daily and have not received any response yet.

I would really appreciate support to get it resolved.

Thank you,

Jennifer

Hey @Jennifer23 ,

Welcome to the community and sorry for the delay in our response. We are experiencing higher than usual ticket volumes. I have escalated internally, thanks for your patience in the meantime 🙏

I’m adding here. I have had SIGNIFICANT issues with billing, to the point I’m pretty sure this opens Figma up to a class action lawsuit.

The alarm isn’t just that you are overcharging and have no feature to downgrade or to remove seats, it’s that I have been trying to get in touch by emailing support and filing tickets on the website with no response whatsoever.

For the record, my tickets I submit through the website do not even become tickets. I get no confirmation email and have no confirmation number.

Hey @Michael_Staton, thank you for reaching out! I understand that this must be incredibly frustrating!

You can downgrade people to a free seat at any time during your billing cycle.

1. From the file browser, find your Professional team in the sidebar and click the Admin Console icon.


2. Select the Members tab.


3. From the dropdown menu next to someone’s Design or FigJam seat, change the seat type to Viewer-restricted.

I also recommend checking out this Help center article: How free users become paid users

I’ve tried to track your support ticket but I wasn’t able to find a current one. Have you used a different email address? If so are you able to send it to me via DM? I can escalate this to the team.

Unfortunately, we are currently facing an increased contact volume so there might be a delay. However, I am happy to reach out to the teams to get your issue sorted ASAP.

Please let me know if you have any further questions and thank you in advance!

Same on my end. Still waiting for a reply after 3 days. Opened a ticket [#950071] because I initially subscribed to a monthly FigJam seat, but now they charged me with a design seat as well without any notice. Why is this happening?

Hey @Le3hyo, sorry for the delayed reply!

Our team is dealing with a higher volume than usual, but it looks like Mercedes replied to your ticket #950071 about 20 minutes ago.
