Free premium articles

When reading a premium article with one of my 3 free reads each month I no longer see the comment thread. Have the access rules changed?

    <p>Same for me. I just downgraded from premium though so didn't even know that it was there before?</p>

    <p>It's not supposed to work like that. Tim is investigating, sorry about that.</p>

    <p>As of today, Dec 1st, 2017 you still can't read the comment thread on a Premium story if you don't have a Premium account. It's totally up to the site to set policy, but it would be nice to know where we stand. I can't speak for anyone else, by I don't find the ability to read 3 Premium article's a month very useful if I can't comment or even read the comments of others. </p>
