Bait and Switched on "lifetime FREE updates"
Bought an Ancel V6 Scan tool from Amazon on 11/28/2021 that promoted "lifetime FREE updates", that I can prove existed with pictures of their own ad! This was a major selling point to me since I don't make money using this tool. I use it for personal use. So now 2 years after purchase they are trying to force me to buy updates for $9.99 a month. I emailed them and they tried telling me that the V6 only comes with 2 years of updates despite what their ad said. Pretty bad advertising and customer service from this company.
