Faulty Software and Scare Tactics Intrusions!

Yesterday, I renewed my subscription to McAfee for two years, and everything went fine, sign up, billing everything. Checked my setting tab and it showed 2 years! So did a complete scan and everything looked fine. But then I started getting notifications saying my computer was unprotected! So went back to my settings and everything looked good still. But I did notice that the original notification said it expired on June27, wh

User's recommendation: They use scare tactics to get you to renew! Tells you your computer is infected with a virus or trojan.

I order McAfee in 2017 for HP Computer, and I tried to cancel 2018, 2019 and now 2020. They kept turning on the renewal button.

User's recommendation: Buyers beware... I have canceled all my banking and credit card information in PayPal, it is the only way to stop them from billing me. from billing me. And that website has no close account feature... They are A SCAM......

Charged twice

Was on the phone with a representative and nothing was resolved. I am wanting to cancel the automatic renewal. I purchased a product at a cheaper price and then was charged for another product at a way higher price.

Very cross with all the tricks they pull on customers.

Many attacks on my computer that were not blocked. Decided not to auto-renew which is due in a months time. Low and behold they have charged me now without consent. We need protection against McAfee.

User's recommendation: Do not use McAfee Computer Virus Protection software.
