I neeeed Resharper. Like a drug. When I don’t have it installed in Visual Studio I feel like my hands have been lopped off.
The other day I upgraded my aging personal license of Resharper 2.5 to the shiny new 4.1 version. However due either my own stupidity or a glitch in the Jetbrains purchase process I got charged the full license rather than the upgrade price (which is significantly cheaper).
Having noticed this error I sent a polite email to Jetbrains requesting a refund for the price difference. This is the response I got:
Thank you for letting us know. This is what we are going to do:
- We are going to delete the purchase of a new 4.x commercial license in your user account.
- We are going to send you a license key for an upgrade from 2.x ReSharper to 4.x ReSharper Full Edition Personal License.
- We are going to send you a refund of 210USD.
Hell yeah! Thanks Jetbrains, for being so awesome.

Is that price you were refunded the difference, or the full cost?
The difference.
