Can you stack Filen plans to extend validity instead of storage?

Hello fellow Filen users,

I’m looking for a cloud storage solution to store my files for a long period (around 5 years).

I checked out pCloud(their lifetime plan is out of my budget), but since I’ve already used Filen (free), and their annual plan (~20€) is quite affordable, I’m considering sticking with Filen.

What I’m trying to understand is:

Instead of increasing storage, is it possible to stack subscriptions to extend validity?

For example:
If I buy a 200GB annual plan 5 times, will it give me 200GB for 5 years, or will it just stack into 1TB for 1 year?

Would really appreciate if anyone has tried this or knows how Filen handles it.

Thanks!

Edit: my budget is around 200 USD for getting around 5 year cloud storage..
Edit 2: As people suggested, filen will stack only storage so if can anyone recommend any cloud storage which suits my demand, i would be grateful. 450usd for pcloud is out of my budget, hence can't opt for it..

Amazon advertised 2-year extended warranty on Samsung S26 Ultra… but Samsung says it doesn’t exist?

Hello, hope ya all doing fine!

Today I bought a Samsung S26 Ultra from Amazon, and the product listing clearly mentioned a 2-year extended warranty.

However, after receiving the phone, I contacted Samsung support to confirm — and they told me it only comes with the standard 1-year warranty. They also confirmed there’s no extended warranty registered or linked to my device.

I checked everything:

  • No warranty voucher included in the box
  • No email or documentation from Amazon
  • Nothing showing in Samsung Members / warranty check

When I contacted Amazon, their only solution was to return the item for a full refund. They didn’t provide the promised extended warranty or any alternative.

This feels misleading — the extended warranty was a key reason I chose this listing.

Questions:

  • Has anyone else faced this issue with Amazon listings showing extended warranty?
  • Is there any way to claim what was advertised without returning the phone?
  • Should I escalate this (consumer protection, complaint, etc.)?

Would appreciate any advice before I decide whether to return it.

Thanks!
