On 12/15/24, I received invoice #[protected] from Norton for renewal of Anti-virus in the amount of $349.99. I did not renew and called your phone to obtain credit. Your rep, identified himself as Sam Rodgers and acknowledged charges were made to my PayPal account. He said I had to give him remote access to obtain the return form. I asked why can't the sum...

I am trying to log into my account but must have been forced into setting up 2FA a while ago. I don't have Norton saved in my google authenticator app nor do I have backup codes (I have no idea what these are), so although I have my password, I can't get into my Norton account. Apparently my account doesn't have auto-renew so it is going to expire in 10...

Norton Norton icloud backup

My package with Norton includes icloud backup however it isnt appearing on my dashboard - the contact us chat support will not allow me to type in any questions except the original issue after that it just send preset stiff from their site and no option to ask any questions. There is no email address for support and to contact by phone requires a payment for a feature that is supposed to work on my package, Having spent 2 hours trying to get it resolved I have given up and will look for an alternate provider that has an actual customer service

This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

In about May of this year (2023) I realised that I was paying for Norton needlessly as it came free with my BT internet. Being an Ancient of Days and rather concerned about losing all my Logins in Password Protector, I asked Norton for help setting it up. They sent round a so-called expert who installed the BT version of Norton on my PC. He was then asked...

Norton Norton Go

I was trying to purchase Norton 360. Norton go appeared which I did not expect as I requested 360. I thought 360 is what I had so paid for it. Then anouther product appeared making me realise my mistake. This is upselling and should not appear when a customer has selected and trying to pay for a product. On top of this I immediately canceled the product but it still appears on my Bullgaurd account with Norton 360 appearing on my Norton account. I have tried to cancel six times since but the whole thing goes round in circles. This is not the product I want

Claimed loss: The cost of Norton go on my card

Desired outcome: Give me my money back and take Norton go away

I used the Chat with Us feature to ask a very basic question which is, "we are new customers and interested in Lifelock, how many people does Lifelock cover in the household? We have 2 people." One chat with us was on 10/28/2023, operator name was Twinkle G, didn't even read what I was typing and wanted to go through the normal sales pitch before answering...

Norton Norton bombards with optional services for additional fees. Lied in the most recent.

I receive many pop-ups from Norton and the majority of them are asking me to buy an additional service not included in the plan I just purchased. The most recent one told me I had 3 outdated drivers and had a button to click on to resolve the outdated drivers. However, when I clicked on the button, it was an ad to purchase the service at an additional fee, because it's not included in my plan. That was a lie.

Clicking on the button was to sell me something, not resolve anything. The ad claims they will resolve the driver issues now and I can keep the service for 60 days for no charge. The ad then states I need to cancel by 19 Nov 2023, 30 days from now, then they will send a new billing with a reduced amount for the remainder of the service, if I want to keep it.

So, basically, if I forget to cancel it in 20 days, I'm stuck.

I'm tired of their requests for additional services that are not included in my plan.

Desired outcome: I would like to discontinue the Norton plan altogether. I know they won't refund me for the days I've used the service, and that's OK.

Norton Norton services renewed subscriptions but still got numerous demands.

I have been using Norton several features for some time. I received several notices about my renewal pending. I renewed a number of subscriptions for different products. I paid £69.97 to Paypal on the 27/09/2023, which left my bank account on the 29th. However, I still got no end of notices that my subscriptions needed renewing. In the end I got feed up so cancelled all my subscriptions, which, even before my original subscriptions were due to expire. Unfortunately, for me, I still have not received a refund. Regards

Desired outcome: I would like an apology and refund so I can, reluctantly, go to a new provider.

Norton Chat line.

I got an email with an invoice saying my account had been debited. I have not had an account with you for a number of years. Now I’ve recently lost my husband and have naturally been overwhelmed and doing a lot more work on the computer so I wondered if I had inadvertently signed up for something. I got onto the chat line on your website and explained what happened. I did say I just wanted to check that I hadn’t got an account. Pearl then said that she could put me through to an expert for $2 that is fully refundable. I thought a bit strange but ok and paid the money. All they told me to do was not open the link which I didn’t do. How surprised was I when I looked at my account and saw another $66 taken out. I then realised that I had signed up for the expert service. There was no mention of that from your operator and if I’d known wouldn’t have gone down that track! So I managed to avoid one scam only to be scammed by Norton. Pretty disgusting!

Norton Dark Web Monitoring

To whom it may concern.

We have received some emails from an address I do not recognise but claiming to be:

“Norton Support Team [protected]@legacybrand comics.com”

The last was sent 26Sep2023 @ 00:29. Advising +50 images, 4 Email Addresses (I believe we only have one) and a Bank Card.

We have endeavoured to notify Norton through “[protected]@nortonlifelock.com” and are advised that “your message did not reach some or all……..”

We apologise if we sent things to an incorrect email.

But it could have been spam.

Our current security consists of “Norton 360 Deluxe III and Norton 360 Deluxe Plus- (*For the remainder of your subscription. Then $189.99/year See subscription details below).”

We believe we have made some sort of payment that we hope will keep the slavering wolves from the door. Please advise what you expect from us next.

The order number could be #[protected] renewal date 27Jul2024.

Desired outcome: Please sort this mess out and advise.

Norton Norton Antivirus product

Dear Sir/Madam,

we bought the Norton antivirus product with one year licence last year(2022) from one of the retail shop in Sydney as we live in Australia. while we are installing the product itself asking our bank account details as a mandatory.

why would it is asking the banking details in the first place? so we entered our bank account details for installation. As it is getting close to expiry due date, with out giving warning to us they deducted the money for next year licence on 24/09/23, which was cost of $194.00(Australian dollars). this is not correct or right for us and it quite expensive too. we want to cannel the current license and refund the money please or give me a call or email me.

[protected]@yahoo.com

we want to chat with you.

looking forward to see your response.

Kind Regards,

Prabhakar.

Norton Norton password manager

I have twice contacted Nortion with a dilemma. I have been locked out of Norton Passsword Manager because I forgot my password. I have tried at least four times to reset, following the online advice. It has not worked once and there is no functioning customer support.

I am disgusted that I have wasted money on your product.

Can someone talk me through how to correct this.

I appreciate that you do not know my previous password but there should be a simple reset option within the Norton suite. If it exists it is not well signposted.

My browser is Google Chrome and, since I signed up, some online comments suggest Norton does not work with this. If that's the case why wasn't that stated at sign-up?

Norton I am a customer of Lifelock. My email is [protected]@hotmail.com and my name is Sandra Black. My cellphone is [protected]

I received three pieces of correspondence from Citibank. One was a debit card to be activated. The other was a welcome letter for opening the account and the second piece of correspondence was the bank notifying because of fraud activity on the account. Now I have had Life Lock for over a year and I was surprised that Life Lock did not pick up on this fraud. The person used a different address for the account but had my social security number and a Pennsylvania driver's license number which had the wrong number on it from the actual one. I called Citibank immediately to inform them that I had never opened this account because where I reside there are no Citibanks. They stated the account was opened on line on August 28th. I informed them to close it down immediately.

Desired outcome: Why didn't Lifelock pick up on this issue?
