NetShort
NetShort’s listing uses one product name, Weekly VIP, for prices from $5.99 to $29.99. The description tells you VIP can remove ads where that benefit exists, and it tells you how to cancel. It does not tell you which weekly row you will be offered.
Seller NETSTORY PTE. LTD. Rating 4.7 from 243K. Age 18+. iPhone, iPad.
On the listing
- The description prints the iPhone cancel path and the 24-hour rule.
- It says what VIP is supposed to add: ad-free viewing where available, and offline downloads for supported titles.
- Seller is named: NETSTORY PTE. LTD. Rating on the page was 4.7 from 243K, age 18+.
The catch
- Weekly VIP at $5.99 and Weekly VIP at $29.99 are both on the list. The name does not pick the bill.
- The description does not promise a free trial. A review on the page says the wording can look like a free week when it is not.
- Reviews describe a small number of ad unlocks. The listing does not publish that number.

The description says some content needs VIP or an in-app purchase. It says VIP can include ad-free viewing where available and offline downloads for supported content. It does not say every weekly price unlocks the same shelf. One-time rows have no coin count.
Same name, four weekly prices
The US page showed Weekly VIP at $5.99, $19.99, $24.99, and $29.99, with $19.99 and $24.99 repeated, plus one-time purchases at $6.99, $9.99, and $19.99. A $5.99 week and a $29.99 week can both be “the” weekly plan depending on which screen the app opens. Compare the price on the confirmation sheet with this list. If the sheet says a trial, the trial length has to be on that sheet. The description we copied does not offer one.
What VIP claims
The description says VIP members can get ad-free viewing where available and offline downloads for supported content. “Where available” and “supported” are the hedges. A title can sit outside both. The cancel sentence is plain: Settings, iTunes & App Store, Apple ID, View Apple ID, Subscriptions, NetShort, at least 24 hours before the current period ends, or it renews.
The free-week complaint
A review on the listing says the paywall wording can sound like a free week and is not one, and it describes a handful of long ads before the points run out. That is a reader’s experience of the copy, useful because the official description never mentions a trial. Read the sheet for the words free and trial. If they are absent, the next charge is the price on the sheet.
