I purchased lifetime access early on…
I purchased lifetime access early on for $197, especially because the messaging at the time emphasized “get in now before it’s not offered again.”
That created the expectation that I was locking in long-term access to the features included.
Now, features that were originally part of that offer are being moved behind a subscription, and I’m being asked to pay again.
I understand businesses evolve, but changing what “lifetime access” includes after using urgency-based messaging is disappointing and feels misleading.

I paid $197 for Heropost’s PRO LIFETIME…
I paid $197 for Heropost’s PRO LIFETIME plan to support them early on and was promised full, unlimited lifetime access to their social media management tool. That meant unlimited accounts and future integrations — exactly what you expect when you hand over a big wedge of cash to back a platform.
Now they’ve pulled a bait-and-switch: TikTok and other integrations are locked behind new paid plans, and even adding accounts is restricted unless you “upgrade.” Their excuse? They claim it’s a “new platform,” as if that somehow cancels the lifetime deal. It doesn’t — under UK law (Consumer Rights Act 2015, Misrepresentation Act 1967) you can’t just re-label a product to strip away what was sold.
This is a disgusting way to treat loyal early adopters. Instead of honouring their promises, they try to wriggle out of them with a cheapskate move. Pathetic.
Chargeback requested — I suggest others do the same.

Heropost Lifetime Access is a Scam
I bought hero post in September 23 2021. I was supposed to have PRO Lifetime access on the account.
I was supposed to have access to unlimited accounts and unlimited posting to: Facebook, Instagram, Google Business, X (formerly Twitter), LinkedIn (profile and business page), Reddit, Pinterest, Youtube. I payed $197.
And they cut access to most of the accounts and now they give me a promotional code to buy again the lifetime access with 35% discount. What a shame I already was supposed to have access to what I payed and now they don't honor their price. If you use them you will end up in my situation in a few years.
I asked them for a refund to my lifetime access and they refused even tho I provided evidence with what I payed and what I was supposed to get. I also asked to get access to what I payed and they refused. They stoped replying to my messages I have all the email chain saved. I wish I can post for all of you, all the email conversation, to see how they treat their initial customers.

Misleading Practices, Poor Service & Unauthorized Charges – AVOID HEROPOST
We originally joined Heropost under their "lifetime" access model, which was heavily promoted with promises of ongoing updates and new features. These promises were never fulfilled — the platform was rarely updated, buggy, and often completely unusable. We were eventually forced to "upgrade" to a paid plan to access basic functionality, despite paying for lifetime access.
The upgraded system was a major letdown. It was slow, constantly crashing, and failed to publish scheduled posts more often than not. For a platform designed to save time and streamline social media, it did the complete opposite — we wasted more time trying to make it work than it ever saved us.
The real issue, however, came with their billing. Heropost charged us for a renewal without sending any notice, and we did not agree to an ongoing subscription. Our account hadn’t even been used since June 2024, yet they still took a full annual payment without warning, removing our ability to cancel in advance.
When we contacted support, they flatly refused a refund, hid behind their vague terms of service, and claimed the charge was non-refundable – even though we were never told this would automatically renew, nor were we given the opportunity to opt out.
This behavior is not just unprofessional, it’s unethical and borders on fraudulent. We are now:
Taking legal action
Reporting this to our bank as a fraudulent charge
Filing complaints with consumer protection authorities
Publicly sharing our experience to prevent others from falling into the same trap
Avoid Heropost at all costs. Their platform is unreliable, their business practices are deceptive, and their customer service shows no concern for fairness or transparency.

Hi Ben,
We’re very sorry to hear about your experience, and we appreciate the opportunity to respond.
First, regarding your lifetime access — if you originally purchased a lifetime plan, that access remains active and includes the core features originally promised, such as unlimited social accounts and unlimited posting to platforms including Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Reddit, Pinterest, Telegram, and LinkedIn. Lifetime users were also upgraded to the new platform at no additional cost, which includes many improvements, stability upgrades, and fixes based on earlier feedback.
We regret that the earlier version of the platform didn’t meet your expectations. The upgrade was launched to address exactly those kinds of performance issues and provide a better long-term experience for all users. That said, we understand that transitions can be challenging, and we sincerely apologize for any disruption you experienced.
Regarding the billing issue — it’s important to clarify that lifetime accounts do not include any recurring charges. However, if you purchased a separate subscription (such as an additional paid plan or add-on), it may have been subject to automatic renewal, in line with standard industry practices. Our terms do outline this, but we’re sorry if this wasn’t clear in your case.
We take all billing concerns seriously and always aim to resolve them fairly. If there was any confusion or miscommunication, we’d be more than happy to take another look. Please feel free to reach out via live chat on our website or email support@heropost.io, and we’ll do our best to help.
Thank you again for your feedback — we’re continuously working to improve both our product and customer experience.

Hi Adam,
We’re sorry you feel this way, and we want to be fully transparent about what’s happening. If you purchased a lifetime plan, you still have lifetime access, and you’ve been upgraded to our new platform for free — with unlimited posting and social accounts still included. You can continue to post without limits to Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Reddit, Pinterest, Telegram, and LinkedIn.
Due to recent changes in Google’s API, Google My Business became unmaintainable on the old platform and ceased functioning properly. In order to keep it sustainable on the new platform, we could not offer it in the same way that was originally promised. However, we now offer Google My Business as a subscription feature, with a discounted rate for lifetime users to help maintain fair access to it.
We remain committed to honoring the core of your lifetime deal and providing as much value as possible.

Hi Pete,
We understand your frustration and appreciate the opportunity to clarify.
If you purchased a lifetime plan, you still have full lifetime access — no need to repurchase. In fact, all lifetime users have been upgraded to our new platform completely free, which includes major improvements, bug fixes, and enhanced performance based on user feedback.
There’s absolutely no requirement to buy another lifetime deal — your unlimited posting and social accounts still work across Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Reddit, Pinterest, Telegram, and LinkedIn.
If you saw an offer for a new plan, it may have been optional or targeted at new users. But rest assured: your original deal is honored.

Misleading Lifetime Deal - Key Features Removed
I feel completely misled by Heropost's so-called "lifetime" deal. When I purchased, I was promised essential features like unlimited workspaces, unlimited social profiles, and posting to Google My Business. Now, after a platform change, these features have been ripped away, rendering the product far less useful and nowhere near what I paid for.
This is a blatant bait-and-switch. Selling a "lifetime" license, only to remove critical features later, is deceptive and unethical. Heropost sold me on these features, and now they've made the product almost worthless for my needs. A lifetime deal should mean full access to what was promised – not that the company can strip away functionality whenever they please.
Customer service has been slow and unhelpful, and I’m left feeling scammed. Heropost should either restore all the features they promised or offer a full refund. As it stands, this company has lost all credibility. I would strongly advise anyone considering Heropost to stay far away – they don't deliver on their promises.

Hi Hunter,
Thanks for your feedback — we want to address your concerns directly and transparently.
When we transitioned to our new platform, all lifetime users were upgraded completely free of charge, and the core benefits of the lifetime plan — including unlimited social accounts and unlimited posting to Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Reddit, Pinterest, Telegram, and LinkedIn — remain fully intact.
It’s true that scheduled posts and connected social media accounts couldn’t be automatically migrated. This was because the old and new platforms are built on entirely different systems, making a direct transfer technically impossible. However, we ensured that users were notified well in advance — with over 5 months of notice, multiple email reminders, and in-app banners and pop-ups guiding users to reconnect their accounts and reschedule posts if needed.
We understand the inconvenience that comes with a major platform shift, but it was done to resolve long-standing technical limitations and offer a much better experience going forward. The upgrade brought substantial improvements, performance boosts, and fixes — and our goal was to preserve the full value of the original lifetime deal as much as possible.

This Was a Mistake
About six months ago, someone I trust recommended Heropost to me. Unfortunately, it quickly proved to be a disaster. Posts were missing, and I had to fix their errors manually. Then came the so-called ‘platform upgrade.’ Despite being a lifetime member, they had the nerve to ask me to ‘upgrade’ my subscription. Wait, what? That’s when I realized I was being scammed. Naturally, I refused.
But things got worse. When their new platform launched, none of my posts—over 2.5 years’ worth of content with three posts a week—were migrated. It seemed like punishment for refusing to upgrade. These underhanded tactics are unacceptable and need to be exposed.
When I emailed customer service (yes, email in this day and age!), they took three hours to respond with a flimsy excuse. I replied, and—surprise—I never heard back. If you’re considering a social media management platform, do yourself a favor and look elsewhere. There are plenty of better options that won’t waste your time or money.

Hi Stephen,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience — we’re truly sorry to hear that you’ve felt disappointed, and we’d like to offer some clarification.
As a lifetime member, you continue to have full lifetime access, including unlimited posting and unlimited social accounts across Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Reddit, Pinterest, Telegram, and LinkedIn. There is absolutely no requirement to purchase an upgrade — and we apologize if any messaging made that unclear. Any upgrade prompts would have referred to optional features or plans for new users.
Regarding the platform transition, we understand how important your past content is. However, the new system is built entirely from the ground up, and unfortunately, this made it technically impossible to automatically migrate scheduled posts or social media connections. That said, we provided over 5 months’ notice about the change through emails, banners, and in-app notifications, to give all users ample time to reconnect their accounts and re-create any upcoming content.
We’re also sorry to hear about your support experience. Our team strives to respond as quickly and thoroughly as possible, and we regret if your follow-up message didn’t receive the attention it deserved.

This company is a scam
SCAM! I signed up for the lifetime plan. Everything went well for 2 years. Then they decided to "update their platform" and I was forced to use the new platform which had 2 main features I used taken away. If I wanted those features I have to pay a premium subscription price. I asked for those same features back and support kept sending me the same paragraph and not acknowledging what I was saying. Horrible business and they don't care about their customers, only charging them more.

They are not trustworthy
They are not trustworthy. They promised a lifetime deal with all future upgrades, but after just 1.5 years, I’ve already lost access to many features. Now they’re asking me to subscribe to a monthly plan. It feels like they’re starting to scam people. Even if I subscribe again, it’s not worth it because the platform has too many problems.

If you purchased a lifetime plan, you still have lifetime access to all the core features that were originally included. This includes unlimited posting and unlimited social accounts for platforms like Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Reddit, Pinterest, Telegram, and LinkedIn.

The recent platform upgrade was a major step forward, bringing performance improvements, bug fixes, and long-requested features. All lifetime users were upgraded to this new platform at no additional cost, and no core functionality from the original plan has been taken away.
That said, some features — such as Google Business — were impacted due to changes in third-party APIs, which were unfortunately outside our control. We understand that this can be frustrating and we’re always transparent about such changes when they arise.
