I agree with you and you are not uncommon. There are plenty of (now former) AP holders like you. Time will tell, and Disney can reverse/change programs at will, I am hoping they get burned by this, and offer something closer to the original...
I'm no fan of Newsom but it is ridiculous that Disney waited until we started to see the light at the end of the tunnel to decide, after we waited this whole time and decided to not cancel our passes ourselves during the last 10 months, to end the program and immediately announce something else that is more expensive with less benefits. It just feels like an insult to loyal customers who patiently waited for them to reopen. They could have made it work and gone the wdw route, and anyone not happy with the terms could have opted out.

Look on the bright side maybe you will get a 30% discount on those Disneyland Resort Legacy Passholder cupcakes and pins!!!Yea, I read that article as AP cupcakes and pins. I feel very celebrated.
This entire program was designed to screw you over, according to sources familiar with Bob Iger's thinking.
I mean the legacy program was meant to personally screw you, mickEblu, over because you didn't renew your pass.
Or.
I was making a joke...

Their refund is how they are being honored. Disney owes them nothing but their money back
