Quick Note - Adobe offering 2 Months Free for Current Creative Cloud Members
I was trying to write the title for this post and make it not sound like a spam ad, which is what I thought when I first saw this, but its true. Adobe are offering two months off for creative cloud subscribers to help creatives deal with the current global situation. I read about this on a tweet, and I thought it was a joke or a scam, but it was from a reliable source, and I tried it and it works (at least it did a few days ago).
Hey creatives, @AdobeUK are doing a great thing and offering you 2 months free on your membership during these troubling times. Go into the page, go to cancel and make your way to the third page which is entitled 'offers', and you'll see it on the left. pic.twitter.com/LB0Ej7N7Xo

FAQ: I believe you have to already have an active membership

I think it applies to both monthly and yearly subscriptions
Don't be afraid of the 'you might be charged a cancellation fee' message, just don't skip past the Offers page when going through the options.
This was originally posted about Adobe UK, but it works here in Ireland too. I’m not sure if its working worldwide or not, but I’ve seen other tweets about it too. Anyway, just make sure to follow the instructions (and don’t go all the way and cancel if you don’t see the offer) - I’m not taking any responsibility if you cancel your account by accident!
I’m not sure if they wanted this widely broadcast (Adobe responded to the original tweet and seemed supportive so I guess it’s ok) - I’m guessing they’re just not publicly announcing it themselves.
They’re also allowing educators and students free access to creative cloud until the end of May too.
Hey Aaron! We announced last week that students and teachers from schools, universities and colleges that currently use our Creative Cloud apps will be able to have access to those tools from home for free until May 31st: https://t.co/hrXvDzY91u. Hope this helps? Thanks, Adobe UK

P.s. I’m not sure how long this will work for either - they may cancel this before long (if it hasn’t already by the time you read this! - if you do try it - Let us know in the comments if it worked for you or not)
