    It looks like I paid Total Adblock $19 back in December 2022. I had no idea how bad TOTAL adblock was. It must've expire; however, there's not reason to spam endlessly. I'm sick of it, having click on the x to get rid of it. What a horrible company. It looks like it's headquartered in ****** and a division here in Venice, **. I so sorry I did business with such a horrible company. I'm also going to file complaints online so that prospective customers don't fall for such a scam! If TOTAL adblock keeps pestering me, I'll file a lawsuit complaint. Please let them know that I want them to stop pestering me. Spamming at every website I visit IT'S ILLEGAL. Thank you, but no thank you.

    My complaint is this is the second time they have taken $10.25 out of my bank account. It says ********************** DENMEAD GBR for the transaction. I went into my apps and it was in my apps and I deleted it. I told them I didn&#**;t sign up for this. When I Googled the name it gave me a website, when I got on it, I recognized the name ****** and they asked for my email address. I know that once you give your email address they ask for your credit card information. I want them to STOP charging my account for this.

    I signed up for a trial with them. I cancelled before the time was up. I was charged for a new month. I talked to them and asked them to cancel. It was a fight to get them to do it. I am still being charged. I want a refund on all my money

    I had been investigating ad blockers several months ago and had opted not to choose Total Ad Block, finding a suitable one at no price. Since then, however, Total Ad Block has used pop-**** total page ads, and ads that appear on *** that make it impossible to use the page as there is no way to close those ads.I think this is a very frustrating situation - it's like I'm being harrassed by the company to purchase Total Ad Block simply to get rid of their own ads! Isn't there something that can be done about it? I've looked for some way to contact the company to complain about this, too, but haven't found anything.

    Same complaint as others - it's a total scam. I paid $1.99 for 1 year, but product NEVER worked and now they're charging $9.99 every month. They have no email nor phone number - rather a chat that leaves you waiting for another **** endlessly that never comes. Demanding cancellation but having to close my bank account to stop them. STOP FALSELY CHARGING ME - I DO NOT WANT TOTAL. ADBLOCK. STOP BILLING.

    I wanted to get the ads off of my phone. When we received the amount it would be $107, I canceled it. We were looking at our credit card statement and found three charges totaling $107. My husband called and two times we were disconnected. The third time we got thru but the guy only wanted to sell something to us. I just got an email from them saying they would return $9.95 That does not ad up tot the amount.
