McAfee

Yesterday, 3/21/2024, I got an offer from McAfee for a service. I signed up for it and provided my credit card number. I didn't hear anymore about it. Nothing has been charged to my credit card. I called customer service and spoke to the computer. Even though I followed the directions, the computer ended the call.

I tried to call customer service this morning. I communicated with chat. After 23 minutes I got a phone number I could read. Then I called that number saying that I wanted to cancel my subscription. I was told that it was too late to get even a partial subscription. I tried to cancel my subscription today, March 22, 2024. I would like to cancel my subscription, and get a partial refund.

The number associated with this incident is 1-[protected]

My TD VIsa ending 5190 was charge on Jan 18, 2024 for $100.79 Cad for the MCAfee +Advanced - Individuaal I year subscription that I never bought and authorize.
Order confirmation on my email is 40D4621BD49D000 Jan 18, 2024. I am working this day and don't do any shopping online.
Please reverse the charge on my credit card. I never buy McAfee and not interested of your product. I never buy it.
Please get in touch with me on my email below if you have question on this issue.
Thank you very much,

I was browsing the web as usual, and the Mcaffe app is already installed on my computer, as it came with it pre-installed. suddenly, I get a bunch of pop-up notifications through google chrome that malware was ditected and that I should run a scan on google chrome, and I did because I didn't want to be hacked. it said it found 5 malware viruses (4 very high threat and one a moderate threat). having this pre-installed on my computer I thought that the free-trail I still had would transfer over, but it said that it expired. so I purchased the advanced single pack option thing on your website for 59.99$ CAD and it didn't do anything. I checked the app in my computer, and it said I had no viruses, however the free trail was still applicatble for 8 days! so it didn't expire. I tried calling the number, but it said my account was expired and to try again. I am a teenager with a minimum wage job, that money took me a while to get and I just want it back, because I was saving for a trip.

I bought 2 desk top computers November 2022 online from Best Buy. I picked them up and my daughter set up the computers for me. I NEVER wanted McAfee and I NEVER authorized any auto pay for a program that I never wanted. I receive several invoices each year VIA PAYPAL where McAfee is trying to charge me anywhere between $119.99 to $1,499.99 for so call AUTO RENEWAL. I always report these unauthorized transactions to PAYPAL phishing department. I have tried to resolve this VIA PAYPAL, McAfee claims that these are authorized transactions and VIA my credit card company and McAfee claims these were authorized transactions. They are not!

When I bought my laptop from Curry's I was encouraged to take out McAfee Virus protection - they did a deal at the time that made it worthwhile to buy 2 x 1 year protection cards. He said at the end of the first year - you just need to activate the 2nd card and that will cover me for a 2nd year.

McAfee have auto-renewed my cover - charging me £129. 99 for one year cover - when I already have the activation card.

Trying to get hold of a human being on McAfee is impossible - and when I try to raise a refund it tells me I'm not entitled !

This is a disgraceful way to treat your customers - you need to do the right thing and refund me the money - so I can activate the 1 year card of yours that I bought when I purchased the laptop.

This money was taken today 23/11/2023

Mc Afee did not respect their own policies and abusivelly took the money for a subscription that I DO NOT WANT IT.

McAfee SYSTEM DID NOT ALLOW TO CANCEL THE SUBSCRIPTION, YOUR SYSTEM IS A SCAM

I WILL MAKE PUBLIC THIS NON RESPECT OF THE LAW AND ABUSEIVE OPERATION.

Truekey works very poorly. It will show the passwords as stored correctly but it doesn't auto fill all of the time. After having to create new passwords quite a few times it no longer seems that I should have to pay for something that works this poorly. Customer service would not give me any kind of refund. I only wanted my money back for the extra storage space that I had paid added money for when using the true key function, not McAfee itself. They wouldn't do that. There is no place for me to place a complaint. No complaint department.

On 11/16/22 purchased Mcafee protection from this company and was told it was for 3 years and charged my credit card $249.99 also tried to sell me 5 years for more money. Now when you call the number [protected] out of service. Tech drive support 155 Willowbrook Blvd STE 110, Wayne NJ 0770. Invoice order # TDS003105.

My new computer tower an HP window 11 upgrade that had McAfee installed with a temporary license agreement that I never used . I

I installed Bitdefender instead.

This morning I have been bombarded with false claims that a virus had been detected and that I needed to pay McAfee to fix the issue. I removed them and still the problem persists.

They have forced me to continually refuse their service, interrupted my morning schedule and in general just plain pissed me off .

MacAfee, has no business deciding what anti- malware software I use and to flat out lie about potential threats , false claims after I ran a full Bitdefender scan amounts to outright fraud.

I purchased mcafee livesafe for a year with unlimited devices. now at once my mcafee account is inaccessible. I am not getting any code on my mobile to log in. onetime pass code function is also not working. I complained many times even i am sharing latest service request 1-[protected], 1-[protected] but no response. I cannot download software on other device because it needs to login mcafee account which is not accessible now.

I have tried and tried to cancel my subscription way before my renewal took effect. You charged me $149.99 when I already have another provider at $49.99

For the same service. I gave you a chance to match it, you ignored me. I tried to contact you at least 5 times. You can't be bothered or at least make an effort to direct me to the right department. I am beyond upset.

I want a full refund. I can't believe you treat your customers with little respect.

But I want to show some respect to the person reading this. Of course this is not your fault. You have nothing to do with this, but help me out. I can't afford to have 2 companies doing the same thing. I am a senior on a fixed income.

So I would so appreciate it, and resolve this issue.

Thank you,

Peter Schardt

I had various problems with my UK software which resulted in McAfee taking control of my computer, then on the renewal of my software I phoned Customer Service, they sold me the USA version when I live in the UK. Now when I try to set up my personal information. I am expected to put in an American address it will not except my UK address where I am based.

I have been on the chatline with a promise of an expert to call me back within 15 to 30 minutes three days later I gave up and went onto the chat line. The person who I spoke to promised to get the appropriate person to phone me.

Basically, I was on the telephone answering questions explaining the situation being passed round to various department and people. 4 different people I spoke to none could help. After 35 minutes on the phone I was told only an engineer could help me and they would organise them to call me, well still waiting.

What a SCAM. In 2022, I paid 49.99 for a 1year subscription which expired Aug 5, 2023. I stupidly thought electing auto renew would re-up me for 49.99 the next year. WHAT A MISTAKE.

Today, I happened to be scrolling through charges on my credit card and noticed a charge for 160.49 on my account from McAfee. I immediately called and spoke to a rep in the Philippines and she her supervisor explained that I had 60 days, (until Oct 4 and today is October 9) to call and cancel and that McAfee would not refund or even re-apply my payment to another plan.

While on hold I googled "Mcfee Complaints" and see this over-charging scenario is not uncommon! To add insult to injury, their website today is offering 2 YEARS of LiveSave coverage for 99.00. I just paid 3 TIMES that as a RENEWING customer.

Hard lesson to learn. NEVER agree to auto-renew!

Between 21-22 Sept 2023. your "Sub expired please renew" etc msg appeared so I paid online. then I got another "Sub expired please renew". thinking I used card about to expire, used a new card & paid it. Then a again (3rd time) your msg received so I paid it. after checking my bank a/c low & behold, you banked my money 3 times. Looking for 2 refunds. What the heck is going on? Please help with a refund of 2 payments.

Your sincerely

Jack Lloyd
