ChatGPT Plus – No “Settings” Menu After Payment? Korean Users Deserve Better

핫이슈정리왕 2025. 4. 16. 09:33

I’m a paying ChatGPT Plus user based in South Korea.
Despite subscribing to the service, the Settings menu has never been available to me — not even once.

Additionally, Voice Mode randomly activated for a brief moment and then disappeared,
and due to the lack of settings access, I had no control over this feature.

Steps I’ve taken to resolve the issue:

Reinstalling the app

Logging out/in again

Sending multiple emails (with screenshots) to support@openai.com

Analyzing Gmail bounce-back errors

Attempted support via help.openai.com,
but mobile access is extremely limited and Korean support is unavailable

It feels like I’m a paying user without any premium features.

Key concerns:

Functionality appears to vary by country/device/language

No clear explanation or roadmap for availability of features

No compensation or resolution pathway despite multiple reports

As a user, I request:

A clear explanation for missing settings

Transparent standards for which features are enabled and for whom

Equal access for Korean users who are also paying customers
