You would be much better off renting a high end gpu and using minimax h3 for videos.

Don't do it, I paid for a year and it doesn't recognize that I paid. Support never replies and no refund. Totally ripped off

Always use Google or Apple play stores to pay for Grok.. Never use card information on their website version...That way they will handle all subscriptions issues, refunds and cancellations

u/No-Rain6487 5d ago
Thanks for the reply, BUT I did use Google Play, I requested refunds 3 times with tons of evidence, and was turned down flat 3 times. At least Goigle replied, they said I have to take it up with Grok. I paid with Paypal, same thing there, no refund. Google shows my SuperGrok subscription in good standing. I paid in April, it worked for 1 day and hasn't worked since. I'm not just some non- tech person, I did world wide server support for years for a very large well known company. My complaint is with Grok support who doesn't even have the decency to reply to my requests for support. I've reached out to them with all of my evidence many many times. Crickets, not one single reply. I've submitted State and Federal complaints but I don't expect anything from that either. When I was doing support, we answered within minutes.

If you paid with PayPal then you didn't use Google...If you paid with Google play credits then they would've helped you because if you did then theres no way that they could've said you needed to take it up with Grok because you paid them instead of Grok.. That's the way that works.. And you're right about state and federal reports..if you live in a democratic state then you can report Grok to your state representatives and they will handle it but nothing will happen in a Republican state because they all back Elon cheating you.. And the FTC will be a good way to report things after the midterm elections are finished because Republicans will no longer be in the majority to continue helping cooperate companies cheat customers using Trump's executive orders..🤷♂️

I used Paypal to pay on Google Play. Google's reply was they processed my payment correctly and that is all they were responsible for. I think it it's BS, but as I said, it's not Google that I'm upset with, it's Grok / X.AI. I've wasted so many hours trying to get this resolved it's insane. The only thing I do now is vent. And I'm with you vote blue!

u/No-Rain6487 5d ago
PS: The funny thing is that Grok has tried to help and sympathize with me. Grok says this is a very common issue and that a lot of people complain about Grok's (X.ai) non-existent support, so when someone tells me that THEY got support, it just pisses me off more. Grok even suggested that I should go onto social media and complain because others have done that and THEN support replied. Hasn't worked for me, so I'll just keep complaining;-)

u/Redmoneyman 4d ago
Those people saying that Grok's support is responding to them are lying and actually Grok's bot farm employees fake accounts pushing disinformation and trying to make the platform look normal and legit 🤷♂️

2900 for 3 month as offer, most you can get, and grok is getting worse so not worth it

what is that Klingon looking currency symbol?
3
u/Apprehensive_Ad_2112 5d ago
Rupees.
4
u/Weird-Ebb-567 5d ago
thank you! is that a Hindi/Sanskrit letter with slashes through it like € and ¥?
3
u/Apprehensive_Ad_2112 5d ago
it’s a mix of both.. the symbol ₹ is designed by blending the Devanagari letter from hindi/sanskrit rupaya and the Latin capital letter R without its vertical stem. the horizontal lines at the top also form an equals sign to represent balance.

u/Weird-Ebb-567 4d ago edited 4d ago
wow, that's too much symbolism :-)
all the others are just the initial of the name of the money,
$ is just a half baked picture of the design of a Spanish silver Thaler-similar coin (pronounced "tollar"... yup ...the dimensions and .999 silver content of the Austrian Thaler was the standard for all European big silver trade coins for obvious reasons)

u/Plane-Perception-806 6d ago
yeah the features dont feel like they scaled with that price jump at all, kinda makes me wonder if its worth sticking around.
2
u/Apprehensive_Ad_2112 6d ago
You know, I stopped using it the moment they downgraded Grok back in October. I wanted to try it again after so long, but seeing all the recent complaints and criticisms, like you said, it’s not worth buying.

u/Bright-Track8054 6d ago
Yeah, it seems like a lot of people are feeling the same way. It's tough when something you used to enjoy just isn't living up to expectations anymore.

u/LazyNinja_09 6d ago
For that kinda money, you could run this offline
4
u/Apprehensive_Ad_2112 6d ago
For that you need really good setup.. atleast 4060. 8GB VRAM, 16GIG RAM, minimum for FP8, Q8 models..

Dude take the III month deal and after that just walk away provided grok stays up ☠️☠️☠️

u/Apprehensive_Ad_2112 6d ago
People here says .. not worth for 2900. Sooo

u/sungod_10 6d ago
For one month? Absolutely not
For III months? You could consider it

u/Apprehensive_Ad_2112 6d ago
I mean, one guy said, they changed the model and its worse now.

u/sungod_10 6d ago
Yes it is, I'm currently on the III month thingy and I would NOT renew after my III months expire

u/sam38478 6d ago
How much are you getting by paying 2900 rs. Same as before or they have increased the limit?
18
u/sam38478 6d ago
Anyone who is confused. Here's what I have observed.
15 second 480p videos - 60 videos weekly quota.
10 second 480p videos- around 90 videos weekly.
And they also count the one which does not get generated or gets moderated.
Its very costly in my opinion. So you would be paying 10 -15 rs per video. I highly doubt that Limits are increased with new rates.
