C.O.R.E bonus CMU already dropped?
I figured I would finally sign up for CORE, as the extra inventory space would be useful for IFS tomorrow, but when I look at the Ingress store it shows the CMU for the subscription is at 2500, rather than the bonus 7000. As it is only 24 days since CORE was announced I was wondering if the bonus amount of CMU was dropped to the default level early, the Ingress store has the listing incorrect or some other issue?
I did do a few searches here on the forums trying to find an answer, but none of the searches gave me the information I was looking for. I would appreciate clarification, if I can get it, as the extra CMU at the start was a motivation to subscribe.
Thanks

You'll still get the 7000 CMU for this month and the next. The amount in the store was changed to 2500 to avoid confusion among agents who don't know that 7000 is a one time (well, two time) bonus, signing up to expect 7000 but not getting it. See:
Thanks. This was a possibility that I was considering, but since I couldn't find it here I just needed to clarify before jumping on-board. I will have to see what search terms I was using where I wasn't finding that post, but that can wait until later.
Appreciate the help!
Actually this got me thinking.
@NianticBrian said that bonus CMU will be valid for the first 60 days.
I first subscribed on Feb 9. That's day 1.
It renewed on Mar 9. That's day 29.
It will renew on April 9. That's day 60.
I wonder if I will get 2500 CMU or 7000 CMU next month. Place your bets now, folks! Winners get bragging rights.
if its within 60days u should get the bonus cmu, otherwise only 2500..
Which is my question. Will renewal on April 9 be considered within 60 days and be eligible for 7000 CMU? It seems like it should. It also seems like it wasn't Niantic's intent to give a subscriber 7000 CMU 3 times.
it should yes seems very close for it :)
hope you receive the 7000x3
so i receive too :)
Wouldn't April 9th be Day 59? 28 days from Feb to March + 31 days from March to April? Seems like it'd be within 60 days no matter how you do the math.
Depends on whether you count Feb 9 as day 0 or day 1. I think the intention was to give the bonus cmu twice. But I doubt anyone would complain about getting it 3 times.
Wait, what am I talking about? Of course some one would complain! 😂
