I was working fine when I was upgraded to 7.5.0.
I was paying USD75 for Diamond membership and I cannot use the system now. Not really sure what I am paying for then

any help appreciated
To make it sure, either get GTC credentials yourself by being part of an institution, like a university or a travel business that offers that (no regular person on earth has that access thou

or try to "steal" GTC credentials from someone else.
You won't get GTC credentials from KVS since its an 3rd party service.
But has anyone realized the "fare" tab is gone now?!?
I know it scraped the data from a .ru website, I just checked, they are still live and running, don't know why kVS is not scraping their website anymore and the fare pulling from farecompare that was introduced into 7.6 is gone already after a day or so.
So a regular user who doesn't have GTC credentials (lucky me I got some) will have no access to availability and fares anymore? Thats like one of the key features

But hey, we got the timetable feature now, still not sure what I would need that for thou
@KVS
I think you should be a bit more open in your changelogs, as you can clearly see many of your long time members are upset about the way the information we get from you.
So why not clearly say in the changelog (of course if thats the case)
"I was pulling the data for free from flightstats and they stopped releasing that data for free so I removed that feature from the KVS tool"
and
"I was using a russian OTA to get the basefares and they (asked me to) stopp(ed) using their data, so I had to remove it" instead of just removing it and not explaining why.
Its not like its a secret where the data for the kvs tool comes from, everyone can quickly find it out with 3rd party apps.
But a bit more transparency would help the cause imo
