The Online Privacy Company
reviews and complaints

I gotta say, I was pretty disappointed with The Online Privacy Company, aka abine.com. I signed up for their Delete Me service, hoping it would help me remove my personal information from the internet. But boy, was I wrong. It didn't do jack squat. I mean, I complained to them multiple times, and they always said they'd "take care" of it, but nothing ever happened. And get this - the internet even said I lived in some random city in Ohio that I've never even been to! I told them about it, but they didn't do anything to help me out. And to top it all off, I can't even log into my account anymore. What a waste of time and money. I can't believe USA Today recommended this website. I don't think I'll be taking their suggestions anymore.

So, I was using Firefox and all of a sudden, MaskMe stopped working. I was confused and didn't know what to do. But then I found out that Abine had come up with a new product called Blur, which was an upgrade to MaskMe. I was a bit hesitant at first, but decided to give it a try.

I had some trouble with my old MaskMe account, as one of the masked e-mail addresses got compromised and I started receiving a lot of spam. But I was able to contact Abine's tech support by phone and they were really helpful. They deleted my old account and helped me set up a new Blur account quickly.

And let me tell you, Blur is amazing! I'm not getting any more spam or malware, and it's really easy to use. Plus, it has a feature called Do Not Track Me, which is really helpful in keeping my online activity private.

Overall, I'm really happy with Blur by Abine. It's a great upgrade from MaskMe and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable online privacy solution.

I just signed up for DeleteMe from Abine and I gotta say, it's already making a difference. My personal deets like my address, phone number, and even my family members' info have been wiped out from a bunch of databases. It's a relief to know that my info isn't just floating around out there for anyone to grab.

I did have some questions when I was setting up my account, but the customer service at Abine was on it. They were quick to respond and super helpful. It's always a good sign when a company has good customer service, ya know?

I really think everyone should consider using DeleteMe. It's just not worth it to have all your personal info out there for data brokers to sell. That just opens you up to all sorts of bad stuff like online harassment, spam, fraud, and who knows what else. Sure, you could try to remove your info yourself, but it's a total pain in the butt and takes forever. DeleteMe is definitely worth it in my book.

This website, Abine.com, is the real deal when it comes to online privacy. I've been using their Do Not Track Me (DNTM) feature and it has blocked a whopping 75,000 trackers! That's a lot of unwanted eyes off my online activity. The best part is that it works like a charm. I also love the email and phone masking feature, it's like having a secret identity online. It's great to finally feel like my privacy is being respected.

I did have a little trouble with the credit card masking feature, but the staff at Abine were amazing. They were quick to respond and very helpful. I want to give a special shoutout to Samantha, who went above and beyond to help me solve the problem. She kept me updated every step of the way and was always polite and courteous. Thanks to her, I was able to get my child's birthday gift on time. I'm pretty sure the mistake was on my end, but Samantha never made me feel like it was my fault. That's what I call customer service!

On a side note, I'm not a big fan of Google or Google Chrome. I don't trust them when it comes to privacy, so I won't be using them again. Chrome also doesn't work very well for me. But that's okay, because Abine has everything I need to stay safe and secure online. I highly recommend this website to anyone who values their privacy.

This company, The Online Privacy Company (abine.com), is a good option if you're only looking for a password manager, phone line, email, and other similar services. However, if you're looking for a way to keep your information truly private, they're not much better than other free or less expensive options out there. It's important to remember that no one can guarantee 100% privacy, and when a company can't deliver on their promises, they quickly lose their value.

Why pay a lot of money for mediocre service? It's like owning a car that still runs, but most of the controls stop working or only work sometimes. It's just not worth it. If you're looking for a way to keep your information truly private, you might want to look elsewhere.

One thing to keep in mind is that if you try to cancel your account, be prepared to be talked down to. The customer service representatives might tell you that your reasoning is flawed and that you should reconsider your decision. This can be frustrating and make you feel like you're not being heard.

Overall, The Online Privacy Company (abine.com) is a decent option if you're only looking for basic services. However, if you're looking for a way to keep your information truly private, you might want to look elsewhere. Just be prepared for some pushback if you try to cancel your account.

Abine is a game-changer when it comes to internet privacy. I don't want to sound like I'm exaggerating, but it really has made a difference in the way I use the internet. I haven't had a chance to explore all of the features yet, so I can't speak on the product as a whole, but what I've seen so far is impressive. The opt-out functions and protection against tracking are more effective and easier to use than the add-ons I was using before I found Abine.

One of the features I really appreciate is the ability to see all of the accounts I've signed up for (and allowed password save permission) but forgot existed. One such site had my credit card info stored on it as well. With Abine's privacy suite, I was able to find this easily and delete the stored access info.

Another feature that I find incredibly useful is the email alias function and identity manager. It allows me to send inquiries and sign up for offers and accounts without having to worry about an onslaught of follow-ups, surveys, and spam to my main email account.

Overall, I would give Abine a 4 out of 4. It's just too cool and too easy to use. I would definitely recommend it to all of my fellow privacy-conscious web surfers out there.

I signed up for the "unlimited" service from The Online Privacy Company and was disappointed to find out that it's not really unlimited. They don't tell you this upfront, but there are limits to how many times you can use their masked card service. The idea is to protect your privacy, but Abine tracks everything you do and uses your data for their own purposes.

I discovered that I could only use the service three times a day, and I couldn't make more than three purchases with my real credit card before they started adding a $2 surcharge. If I wanted to avoid the surcharge, I had to switch to funding with my bank account. But once they had my bank account information, they could take money whenever they wanted.

I used the service three times a day for three days, and then my account was locked. I couldn't use it anymore. When I tried to contact customer service, their chat was unavailable, so I had to send an email. It took them 72 hours to respond. They said that because I was ordering from the same website, a red flag had been raised, and they needed detailed information about what I was ordering.

I was confused. Haven't they heard of online shopping? I've ordered from the same website multiple times in a day before. Why are they tracking everything I do? And why do they assume that everyone using their service is a criminal?

I explained to customer service why I was ordering from the same website (only three times a day, and I've had privacy issues with the website before), but they still refused to help me. My only option now is to cancel my subscription, get a full refund, and hope that they don't steal from my bank account.

In conclusion, I would not recommend The Online Privacy Company. Their service is limited, and they track everything you do. Their customer service is slow to respond, and they assume that everyone using their service is a criminal. Use at your own risk.

I recently started using two of Abine's free products, Do Not Track Me and MaskMe. Shortly after, I received an email from Abine asking me to take a survey to help them develop their next privacy tool. I agreed to take the survey, but was disappointed to find that the questions were not relevant to the product I was using. They asked me about my insurance coverage and whether I paid for identity theft protection, which seemed like an attempt to sell me another product rather than improve the one I was using.

I also noticed that MaskMe had recorded my login information on a couple of accounts that I had not used the service to create. I found this odd, as I had not given permission for this to happen. Despite these issues, I continued to use the products.

Overall, I think Abine's products have potential, but they need to be more transparent about their intentions and ensure that their products are functioning properly. I appreciate that they are trying to develop new privacy tools, but they need to focus on improving their existing products first.

So, I was looking for a way to keep my online activity private and avoid being tracked by ads, and I stumbled upon The Online Privacy Company (abine.com). I decided to sign up and added the ad tracker to my browser. However, while I was working online, I kept getting a pop-up from abine.com, which was really annoying. I closed it, but it kept coming back. I mean, seriously, why do I have to deal with this?

I contacted their customer service agent, Olivia, and asked her to tell the CEO not to lie to people. She responded in a rude and unprofessional manner, which really ticked me off. I used to work in sales for over five years, and I can tell when a CSR is being rude, smart, and just doesn't care about their job. I mean, I get it, low wages and everyone tells her off all day, but that's not how you make a sale or commission!

I told her not to be a "kunt" and not have an attitude, and she just ended the call. I know it's not right to use such language, but the problem with companies is that they can't be honest. If they were upfront and honest, they would achieve their dreams. Instead, they keep getting called out for their borderline illegal practices.

I demand that they stop lying to customers and fire Claudia, the HR person who hired Olivia, because she can't train a wet dog. I also want the CEO to give me his wife's personal cell number so I can see just what she calls me.

If they don't unsubscribe me, I will report them to the Kansas State Attorney General's Office. Their cold/warm email marketing is just not cutting it. Magazines did a better job!

In conclusion, I apologize for using foul language, but I'm just so frustrated with companies that don't care about their customers. I truly hope they take my feedback seriously and make some changes. And please, don't call me because I'll be much nicer.

Abine.com is a website that offers a useful browser add-on called Taco 3 anti-cookie for Firefox. This add-on provides a comprehensive report of what a website is doing behind the scenes as soon as you arrive. It tells you what information the site is storing about you, what tracking services it is using to follow you around, and how many cookies it has dumped on your computer. The data is presented in an unusually pretty format that catches your eye.

Sitejabber is one of the sites that Abine.com has analyzed, and it seems to be a safe place to visit, except for the fact that it uses Google Analytics. Abine.com is also testing a service called 'Delete Me,' which promises to remove details about you that you or others have unfortunately posted to various places. The most commonly requested service is the removal of a Facebook or MySpace account, but the company promises to tackle much more complicated and/or secure data for an appropriate fee.

Abine.com's services are currently in beta, which means that they should be reasonably stable for most users but may throw a bug now and again. The browser add-on seems rock solid, so there is no reason not to give it a try. It is important to be informed about what websites are doing with the data they can grab, even if you don't necessarily choose to do anything drastic with that information.

It would be neat to see Abine.com's services combined with user-created information such as that provided by the Web Of Trust service. This would provide another layer of security and encourage users to join up. Overall, Abine.com is a useful website that offers valuable services to help protect your online privacy.

I gotta say, I was pretty disappointed with The Online Privacy Company. I mean, I get it, they're supposed to be all about protecting your privacy online, but in my experience, they just didn't deliver.

First off, let's talk about the money. They charged me even when they couldn't delete my private info from the internet. And don't even get me started on their Masked Card. Sure, it's supposed to keep your credit card info safe when you're shopping online, but it doesn't work on all sites. And to top it off, when I tried to get a refund, they told me that the Masked Card is actually a prepaid card, so I was out of luck.

But the real kicker? They blamed all of these issues on "technical problems." Yeah, right. I'm not buying it. It just seems like they're trying to cover up their mistakes and take our money in the process.

Overall, I wouldn't recommend The Online Privacy Company. Save your money and find a different service that actually delivers on their promises.

So, I was told by a buddy to give The Online Privacy Company a try. I gotta say, it was pretty good at first. But then I went and updated to a newer version and things started to go south. My trusty ol' IE8 browser just wouldn't cooperate anymore. It would open up and then just shut down right away. I was pretty bummed out about it, so I decided to get rid of the program altogether. Since then, I haven't had any issues. But I'm still curious as to what caused the problem in the first place. I'd really like to give this program another shot, but I don't want to run into the same problem again.

I gotta say, I was pretty disappointed with my experience using The Online Privacy Company's mask cc service. I mean, I get that they're trying to help protect my privacy and all, but the execution just wasn't there. I tried to make a purchase using the mask cc, but for some reason it didn't work and the website kept telling me that the masking wasn't established correctly. So I tried again, and again, and again...and before I knew it, my card had been charged four times for the same purchase! What a mess.

But it gets worse. Since the mask cc wasn't working, I had to use my regular credit card to complete the purchase. And you guessed it - I was charged yet again, bringing the total up to five charges for one purchase. Ugh. Now I have to go through the hassle of filing a dispute with my credit card company, the vendor, and Abine. Not exactly what I had in mind when I signed up for this service.

Overall, I wouldn't recommend the mask cc from The Online Privacy Company. It's just not worth the headache. Maybe they'll get their act together and improve the service in the future, but for now I'll be sticking with good old-fashioned credit card purchases.

I remember trying out The Online Privacy Company (abine.com) about a year ago, and I gotta say, it wasn't the best experience. From what I can recall, it didn't work with all the web pages and browsers I was using. I ended up letting my billing information expire, but then they still charged me anyway. I tried to cancel my subscription three times, but I never got a response. It was frustrating, to say the least. I had to file a dispute with my credit card company, Discover, just to get my money back.

Overall, I wouldn't recommend this service. It seems like they have some serious issues with customer service and billing. It's a shame, because online privacy is such an important issue these days. But if you're looking for a reliable and trustworthy privacy service, I'd suggest looking elsewhere.

with my dispute, but for now, I'm not too happy with this company.

So, I decided to try out The Online Privacy Company (abine.com) and I have to say, the free stuff they offer is pretty decent. However, I must warn you all about using your credit cards on this site. I recently had a bogus charge and when I tried to call their phone line (***987), I was put on hold for about a minute. Then, a recording came on saying that no one was available to take my call and promptly hung up on me. I mean, come on, that's just not cool.

I'm currently in the process of trying to recover my money, but I'm not too happy with this company at the moment. I'll definitely keep you all posted on what happens with my dispute. But for now, just be careful when using your credit cards on this site.

with the issue.

So, I recently tried out The Online Privacy Company (abine.com) and I gotta say, I was pretty disappointed. They didn't seem to do the job they promised and it felt like they were just assuming they could take my bank account information and do whatever they wanted with it.

I heard about them from my daughter, who's a college student, and she was having trouble with them. Even though she asked to be taken off their service, they kept charging her $129 every year. That's a lot of money for a college student, and it's not fair that they just kept taking it without doing anything to help her.

Honestly, I don't know why anyone would hire them. They don't seem to do the job in the first place, and then they just keep charging until they've taken enough money. That's not professional at all, and when I tried to confront them about it over the phone, they were really rude.

Overall, I wouldn't recommend The Online Privacy Company (abine.com) to anyone. They don't seem to care about their customers or their privacy, and they're definitely not worth the money.

Abine is a company that offers a tool called "Do Not Track Me". I decided to give it a try and installed it on my computer. So far, it seems to be working fine. However, I have some concerns about the company's tracking practices. They claim to be blocking trackers, but they also use their own tracker to show how many trackers have been stopped. This seems a bit contradictory to me.

Abine assures us that the data they collect is safe, but I'm not entirely convinced. After all, many companies make similar claims, but we've seen time and time again that data breaches can happen to anyone. What happens if Abine gets acquired by a bigger company? Will our data be sold to them without our knowledge or consent?

It's ironic that a tool called "Do Not Track Me" is itself tracking me. I'm not sure if this is intentional or not, but it's certainly something to think about. Overall, I think Abine's tool is useful, but I would feel more comfortable if they were more transparent about their tracking practices and data security measures.

Abine is a pretty cool website that I stumbled upon. It's got all the info you need about tracking, optout, and cookies right there on the bottom right of your browser. It's super convenient and easy to use. However, I gotta say, it does slow down my browsing experience quite a bit. I've tried a few things to fix it, but nothing seems to work. Even my Fast Dial page on Firefox is affected. It's a bummer, but I'm hoping they can figure out a way to make it faster. In the meantime, I can't really recommend it. Maybe they can take some tips from Ad Block and NoScript! Those add-ons for Firefox are pretty sweet.

I've been using the Online Privacy Company's (abine.com) masked email service for about a year now and I gotta say, it's been pretty good. So good, in fact, that I decided to upgrade to the premium version and try out the masked cards. But boy, did I run into some issues.

First off, I signed up for a 1 year subscription but got charged for 3. That's a pretty big mistake if you ask me. And then, when I tried to use the masked email I set up for my masked card purchase (my first time using the premium set up), it didn't work at all. But guess what did work? The credit card charge. So now I'm out $132 and feeling pretty frustrated.

I'm hoping this can all get resolved soon, but until then, I'm seriously considering cancelling my premium account. It's a shame because I really liked the masked email service, but these issues have definitely put a damper on things.

I gotta say, I'm not too impressed with The Online Privacy Company (abine.com). They say they can protect your privacy online, but I'm not so sure. For one thing, they automatically renew your subscription every year without even asking you first. That's not cool, man. And if you try to leave, forget about it - there's no one to talk to. It's like they don't even care about their customers.

But it gets worse. If you do decide to leave, they'll start sharing all your private info with anyone who will listen. And if that's not enough, they'll even add you to spam lists just to mess with you. It's like they're trying to get revenge or something. And if you try to complain about it, they'll just delete your comments like it's no big deal.

Honestly, I wouldn't recommend this service to anyone. It's just not worth the hassle. If you want to protect your privacy online, there are better options out there. Don't waste your time or money on these guys.
