      I really like the Avast Antivirus, but Norton keeps trying to sell me its software because I changed to Avast. I don't NEED BOTH, do I?

      5-20-25 I had a notice for a pending charge for The Privacy Monitory Assistance Plan due on May 23, 2025 on my account page. I do not want this plan for $79.99 and a renewal rate of $109.99. I am trying to cancel this charge before they deduct this amount from my checking account. I could get no assistance in cancelling this charge. The man I talked to gave me all kind of odd replies including directing me to a different websites that had nothing to do with Norton. I got disconnected numerous times; someone gave me a jumbled phone number to call that I could not understand. One man wanted to remotely connect to my computer. I hung up on him. I tried all kind of websites and could not get connected. I finally found a website that allowed me to send an e mail to cancel this plan. It seems like this is some kind of scam trying to get money for a product I do not want.

      If I could put less than 1 star, I would. I was not able to connect to my financial institution and customer service was horrible. I would be put on hold several times, and then told my case was being elevated to level 2 and they would be calling me back. They never called, so I called back, only to be told that they would call back. This went on for several weeks. All the time, I didnt have identity protection with my financial institution. I called again yesterday, only to again be put on hold several times and nothing resolved. I told them I wanted to cancel and wanted a refund. I was told I would not be eligible for a refund, because they only give refunds up to 60 days after renewal. I would never recommend Life Lock to anyone. Their customer service is useless,

      PLEASE help us fix this company's unscrupulous activities. Customers are refused refunds, there is virtually zero customer support, and they continue to auto renew accounts while providing none of the services being paid for. Th If you are an active attorney a class action lawsuit is honestly needed to fix this companies predatory behavior. If you are a customer please file an FTC complaint with the Governement, along with a BBB complaint, and negative social media reviews everywhere ************ FROM LIFEKCOK AND NORTON.

      This is a dishonest company. I tried working with them for a month to cancel my mothers subscription and get a refund since she has been unable to use a computer for over 3 years but the subscription was on auto renew. I spoke with company representatives multiple times. Each time they said a supervisor would call. They never did. I finally posted a complaint on ********. Apparently getting their attention on a public forum is the only thing they respond to. I then talked with the "escalation team" regarding my issue. They said to attach my Power of Attorney papers to an email they would send me and return it. They sent the email. I returned it with the papers. This went on for about 6 emails and 10 returns but they said they never received any return emails from me. I finally did actually get to speak to a person. She again said she would sent me an email and I should attach the paperwork. I pointed out to her that I had received 6 emails from the company and I returned them 10 times and apparently nothing ever got received at their end (I find this rather incredulous since they are an IT company). She asked me to send it via fax however I do not have a fax machine. She than suggested I mail it. I asked her for a specific address and name who I could send it attention to. She again sent another email with this information. I copied her email which contained all of the information in the email along with the power of attorney papers and mailed it out the next day. I then received multiple emails stating that they never received the mailed letter and asking if I sent it. I didn't bother answering this because, obviously, they never receive my return emails. I find all of this questionable and believe this entire thing was a run-around to see if they could get me to stop. I did stop. Mainly because I contested the charge with my credit card company and, apparently, this company doesn't mess with them. I got my full refund through the ***********

      I had canceled one of the subscriptions on the avast subscription part of the antivirus only to still be charged ****** for it , and when I called I was on hold for almost a hour . This company should be shut down in my opinion . this is not the first time they charged my bank for something that I canceled. I will give them one star but rather not give any . I never received a email about renewing subscription and I wonder how many other people they scammed money out of for a canceled subscription . DO NOT USE AVAST .

      ***************. At one time Lifelock was worthy of the subscription. They did once contact me when an unusual credit card was opened because someone stole my SS#, address, DOB... all the vital information needed in an ID theft. They contacted me and helped me clear it, and closed down those credit ********* about 8 years later a similar thing happened. But the company was taken over by Norton.The service is now worthless. I call to get help to no avail. I got an idiot at some call center in what sounded like the ***********. I could not understand a word of what he was saying. His English was a mechanical like script. I could not verify my Identity with him because he was completely unintelligible. After I demanded to speak with a supervisor, I raised my voice because he refused until my account was validated... then he accused me of using foul language. That idiot confused an angry tone with ***** words as "foul language". Yet I did not use one word of foul language. They also blocked my phone number from calling back. These people are crooks. I figure they stole at least $800 of my subscription money over a period of 5 or 6 years since Norton took over the operation. Had I needed them, all that money I paid in the past few years went to naught. I canceled my subscription and called the creditors/banks directly and resolved the problem. All the new credit applications were closed, including a freeze with all three credit bureaus.Don't waste a Penney on this Norton Lifelock. *******. They should be shut down. It's like putting the hen house under the watch of wolves,
