    Sorry you have to deal with this. You can stay on Honeycomb. Here is what to change before December 31, 2026:

1. Check your plan label. Open billing in Honeycomb. A (Legacy) label means this change hits you.
2. Compare the two options. Work out the new tier price, and the price of a year on your legacy tier at 20% more.
3. Decide before December 31. Commit to the annual option during the grace period, or let Honeycomb move you.

Honeycomb says:
- If you do nothing: You move to the closest new Pro tier at your next billing boundary, based on your plan.

You can stay on Honeycomb. To choose when it happens, make the change yourself before December 31, 2026.
