Title: Please stop reminders
Post by: REDACTED on October 16, 2016, 09:10:22 AM

I was using Secure Line, now no longer need it, so I let it expire. Since them I have been getting up to six reminders a day, even in the middle of a movie I was watching with friends, using HDMI into my TV.

There is no way to stop it, apart from deleting Avast altogether, I can't just have this annoyance forever.

Being told for two weeks beforehand that it was expiring, getting emails saying the same, then dozens of pop-ups since, I can assure you I KNOW it has expired .... so now stop telling me, this is beyond annoying.

Cant you use the uninstall/change function to remove the feature.

Thanks Graig, it's been 24 hours now and no reminders.

PS: 7 goes at the verification before I get one I can read, is this really necessary, I'm logged in so can hardly be a robot.
