Customer ReviewsforMcAfee, LLC

I tried to cancel my auto renewal and they refused. They said my subscription would auto renew every year unless I upgraded to a more expensive subscription. They absolutely refused to cancel my subscription. I had to call my credit card company and have them block any further charges from McAfee. They are going to dispute the current charges. I have to give a rating, I would like to give it 0 but I can't.

This company has tried to scam me out of $131.03 for the past few months. Don't trust them!!!!!! When I call them they say they have reimbursed my account. They lie every time.

On June 19, 2024, I contacted McAfee because they were getting ready to automatically withdraw money from my account on five devices when I only had coverage for one device. The representative said she would reimburse me the withdrawal. I have been calling ever since then inquiring about my refund. About five or six representatives told me the money was refunded to my account either on June 20th or June 22nd. I told them while I was talking to them and looking at my account, I did not see a refund. One representative told me I should have received an email confirmation about the refund. I told him I didn't receive an email confirmation. They kept telling me to call my bank and find out about the refund. I called my bank and spoke to a representative in the ************************* and he could not find a deposit into my account from **********************. He researched the whole month of June and still could not find a deposit. On June 28th I called back and asked to speak to a supervisor. He told me he would research the transaction and forward the information to another department for a review. He said I would receive an email on Monday, July 1st but as of today, July 3rd, I have not received an email or my refund. I called today July 3rd, and the representative told me it was still being reviewed and I should receive a call. Also, I canceled my auto renewal and since I canceled my auto renewal, I was not fully protected from viruses or threats which I think is outrageous. After being frustrated and going back and forth with McAfee I called on today, July 3rd, to cancel my subscription. I told the representative I was going back to ****** because I never had this problem with them. He kept telling me I had just renewed my subscription and I told him I did not care because I was tired of dealing with them. I thought McAfee was a good company because it came on my new computer, but I was wrong.

This company engages its customers in purposely difficult practices in order to be able to cancel a renewing subscription to its popular antivirus protection package. When I attempted to use my online account to cancel my subscription, I found that I was unable to do so via the online account, despite the company's indications that that is the preferred channel. I then called the customer service line. The representative understood my request to cancel my subscription, and then engaged me in purposely obtuse questioning that was clearly intended to debar me from the purpose of my call. In my view, this is a deceptive business practice. I would further note that when a customer attempts to purchase a subscription to any McAfee service, it is easy to do on the website, and, likewise, phone calls to customer service do not require an extended line of purposely obtuse questioning. In addition, over my years of being a customer I have called the technical support team for various issues, and have always been helped assiduously and effectively, with no line of purposely obtuse questioning.

I called McAfee to cancel. The agent misunderunderstood and focused more on my refund than cancelling my subscription. They took control of my computer remotely with out my permission. They got access to my bank account and were asking my security question. After 50 minutes I ended the call. It was the most invasive cancellation ever. On top of that, it took at least 30 minutes for me to get control back of my computer. I would never recommend any of their products!

I had been a customer of **********************. When they renewed my subscription I no longer had the credit card I used in the past. I was told it would be $49.99. Within a few minutes my credit was charged $149.99. I immediately called back and told the man to CANCEL this transaction. It was advertised you could cancel within 30 days. When I called back the agent was rude and told I could not do that. I made several calls and sent replies to correspondence saying I did not any this service and to cancel. I got an email from my credit card and they have refused. I have sent several emails and calls with no results.

I HATE that they are skirting the federal laws around forcing us to accept auto-renew at a 200% increased cost!

I am getting the runaround for a partial refund. Didnt have any problem selling me a new subscription - getting reimbursed on the old subscription is a different story.
