Why can't I switch to the Family Plan?

If the "Switch to Family Plan" button is missing, or you see the message "We couldn't switch your plan. Your current subscription isn't eligible", one of the reasons below applies.

You already have a Family Plan

If you are already on a Family Plan, as the manager or as a member, the card shows "Manage" instead. Members who want their own plan should read I'm on someone else's Family Plan. How do I start my own?

Your account has more than one active subscription

This happens when an account ends up with two subscriptions at once, for example an older annual one alongside a newer monthly one. We stop the switch so that you are not charged twice or credited the wrong amount. Message us and we will tidy the account up first.

Your current subscription is in a different currency

We charge the Family Plan in one currency per account. If your current subscription uses a different one, the switch cannot go ahead. The message reads "Active subscription in a different currency". Message us and we will help.

We cannot read your subscription details

Now and then we cannot confirm where your subscription came from. This is usually temporary. Wait a few minutes and try again. If it keeps happening, message us.

You were signed out

If you see "Session Expired", log in again and try once more.

Still stuck?

Message us using the chat icon. Please tell us:

  • the email address on your Tarteel account

  • where you subscribed: our website, the Apple App Store, or Google Play

  • whether you pay monthly or yearly

With those three things we can usually fix it in one reply.
