Title: URGENT - Charged for DRi*Avast Software and Need to Cancel
Post by: REDACTED on July 08, 2018, 10:25:53 PM
I was checking my bank account today and noticed I was charged 49.99 for "Dri*Avast Software" when I never made an account with Avast in the first place, nor have I purchased premium or any of their products. How can I can cancel this when I never made an account or product number? I'm unsure of what Dri* even is. Getting help directly from support has been difficult as well as they ask for specifics.

The charge is processing as of today, July 8th.

Someone(at some point) has made a purchase of an Avast product or registered for a 'Trial version' in order for the payment details to be available. Auto Renewal is UNFORTUNATELY checked by default and needs to be unchecked or cancelled.
Possibly this information may help.

I was charged $52.74 for DRI*AVAST SOFTWA and I did not order this. I do not even know what it is. Please refund my money and do what ever you have to do to get rid of this. Thank You.

I was checking my bank account today and noticed I was charged $86.39 for "Dri*Avast Software" when I never made an account with Avast in the first place, nor have I purchased premium or any of their products. How can I can cancel this when I never made an account or product number? I'm unsure of what Dri* even is. Getting help directly from support has been difficult as well as they ask for specifics.

The charge is pending as of today, 9-3-2018.

I have also been charged £39.99 for something I didn’t apply for. Contacted them and they say I did. But hey I didn’t as I have a malware on my new iPad. So they will never admit it. So Avast keep the money and keep lying to people about it. You obviously need it more than I do..... if I wasn’t in a wheel chair I would fight on. Can’t be arsed

Follow the instructions and contact customer support. Complaining in this forum isn't going to solve your problem. Customer service will.

Hello!

I have the same issue that is mentioned in the title. Got no notification before the trial version was ended, have no e-mails with the order ID, when I log into my Avast account there are no active subscriptions, I can't manage either of them. The transactions have been initiated by the same vendor, beginning with DRI* (Digital River). I have submitted a refund form at Avast and Digital River both, I am however unsure if they are going to get back to me. I found no direct customer support thereby I must write here. Does anyone can help?

I have contacted my bank, they have informed me that the payment is on hold and they can in fact release the amounts in 8 days - if the vendor won't touch it. In case it happens otherwise, I must get back to them with a dispute claim by reporting fraudulent behaviour.

Waiting for an answer.

Regards,
Attila K.

Dear Bob!

Thanks for the answer, I was a bit lost in the forum hence I did not notice the obvious. I did as you suggested (I have not noted down my ticket number though, got neither any e-mails about the submission - is that normal?) - how long will it take now approximately until Avast's Support team will get back to me, or until I get refunded? Is there no way to solve this issue by a phone call? I can only find the premium service line only - no customer support.

Attila K.

Be patient, a refund can take up to 7 business days. Note, don't submit multiple tickets (FIFO).

Post by: Attila42 on February 10, 2020, 03:15:42 PM
Hey!

My bad, I have submitted 3 tickets (refund, unsubscribe and tech issues - regarding the same topic basically), but with different order numbers (last being all zeros). Does that ruin those seven days? Is there anything to fix it?

All in all I got no e-mail notifications after I submitted each ticket. That does not mean that they won't be able to get back to me, now does it? Since I could not retrieve and manage my subscriptions using the same e-mail address, that led to this menace in the first place (the address actually worked before - seems the problem lately is with some automatic communication modules).

Thank you for the replies :)

I guess you used the 60day trail and gave them your credit card info?

Yes. I did that before - once I declined the subscription within the given timeframe successfully, another time I continued using a product without a problem. This last encounter however is really a mess.

Hello, on March 27/20 I was charged 69,99CAD for DRI*AVAST Software. I did not order this. I went to the link https://support.avast.com/en-ww/article/24 (advised to other users reporting the similar problem) to apply for the refund. Here is my problem with  the form to complete. I have to answer the question when did I make the purchase (1. 30 days ago or less, 2. more than 30 days ago). No option "I didn't make the purchase" to check.
And then is the question "Why are you asking for the refund" with the options to choose from, but there is no option "I did not make an order". I ask for help. Thank you.

I followed the steps here. No action yet. I have never used the product because it isn't listed on my subscriptions page. I don't even know what product I have paid for. Need a refund.. I have Invoice ID and Transaction #, etc. But no Order ID, as I made no order. Any help here?

Also, I was charged today via PayPal on the amount of $89.99 by Digital River Ireland, Ltd. for DRI*AVAST Software.

The issue that my current AVAST subscription is valid until the end of Feb, so why I was charged? Also didn't receive any email from AVAST today about this Digital River charging on their behalf.

 I opened a request to AVAST about that via  this link: https://support.avast.com/en-us/contact/sales/

Sprawdzałem dzisiaj swoje konto bankowe i zauważyłem, że zostałem obciążony opłatą w wysokości 59,99 za „Dri * Avast Software”, kiedy nigdy nie założyłem konta w Avast ani nie kupiłem premium ani żadnego z ich produktów. Jak mogę to anulować, jeśli nigdy nie utworzyłem konta ani numeru produktu? Nie jestem pewien, czym w ogóle jest Dri *. Uzyskanie pomocy bezpośrednio od wsparcia było trudne, ponieważ proszą o szczegóły

Hello!

I have the same issue that is mentioned in the title. Got no notification before the trial version was ended, have no e-mails with the order ID, when I log into my Avast account there are no active subscriptions, I can't manage either of them. The transactions have been initiated by the same vendor, beginning with DRI* (Digital River). I have submitted a refund form at Avast and Digital River both, I am however unsure if they are going to get back to me. I found no direct customer support thereby I must write here. Does anyone can help?

I have contacted my bank, they have informed me that the payment is on hold and they can in fact release the amounts in 8 days - if the vendor won't touch it. In case it happens otherwise, I must get back to them with a dispute claim by reporting fraudulent behaviour.

Waiting for an answer.
Regards R Prodan

Problem as above. It charged me for a product that I didn't purchase. The option in https://support.avast.com/en-ww/article/126/#artTitle doesn't work because I don't have any subscription to cancel.
Is there any way to contact the support directly (preferably by e-mail) because otherwise I will have to close my bank account or report it as theft.

Yes you should have received an email notification, the most common cause of non-receipt is an old email address no longer used.

Hi, the amount is way too high for any of the consumer products. So, I doubt this really came from Avast.

Я проверял свой банковский счет сегодня и заметил, что с меня списали 29,99 за «Dri * Avast Software», когда я вообще не создавал аккаунт в Avast, а также не покупал премиум или какой-либо из их продуктов. Как я могу отменить это, если я никогда не создавал учетную запись или номер продукта? Я даже не знаю, что такое Dri *. Получить помощь напрямую от службы поддержки было сложно, так как они просят уточнить детали.

It seems that by upgrading premium anti virus from the free one (2 years ago) a clean up program was included that I never used by the way. Canceled the premium anti virus but did not take notice of the clean up program that has to be canceled as well, for this reaason I just got billed 59,99€ via credit card for a re newal off the clean up software that was never installed in the first place! Pay attention to this when canceling your premium avast antivirus software and look out for atached software that was probably included in the package even never installed! They will bill you and there is nothing you can do!. Be warned ...

As far as I'm aware, Avast Cleanup Premium is not part of the the Avast Premium Antivirus program, though it and Avast Free have a cleanup component included. 
But it only reports cleanup issues in the hope that you will purchase the paid Avast Cleanup Premium product.

Did you ever signup for the trial version of Avast Cleanup Premium, as that would require completing a payment mandate that would kick in at the end of the trial and upon renewal.

What does your Registration Information say you have for your installation (right click the avast tray icon - Registration Information).

There was no order and no e-mail from Avast to confirm such a deal!
I've just send them request for refund with the Order ID: #00000000.
Will see what happens.

Hi,

To clarify, we did send out notification emails. However, it seems that you sign up for the trial subscription using an invalid email address.
I have escalated your refund request, and we will get back to you via the case/ticket you created with us.

Thanks a lot, now the refund is done.
To clarify: this is highly unlikely that I put my wrong e-mail adress somewhere and somehow providing in the same time Avast with my real credit card number .
I`ve got my Avast account and am logged in my Avast Premium Security and Avast Cleanup Premium but with another card, without credit limit :)

Hi,

When signing up for a subscription one needs to manually enter details (email, credit card etc.)

If you have many questions an email address would be useful so that I could reply at my own pace. However, as this seems to be a complete mess I think it would be easier just to agree the refund and get this over with as my very limited time is precious.

When checking my PayPal account today I discovered that I have made a payment  of £78.99 GBP to Digital River Ireland Ltd (paypalcs@digitalriver.com) for DRI*AVAST Software. I have no idea what this is, I did not order it, I do not wish it and I would like an immediate refund. I have no current subscriptions with you.

I've been charged $54.45 on July 29th for something from DRI Avast when I did not order this item and do not even know what it is.  How do I get a refund.

The same thing happened to me today as I was charged 59.99 under the name DRI* avast software. I do not have an email regarding any purchases and I do not have any order number or anything related to an avast subscription. I need help please. It is really a frustrating thing!

Did you go for a 30 day trial of an Avast Program  ?
If so did you fill in your payment information  ?

If so after 30 days that payment will be processed, unless you have cancelled the trial and auto payment mandate.

Otherwise how would Avast get your details to collect the payment !

You you can use the link given by "Luukjr", Avast Team in the topic before yours.

Hi i got charged a $109 payment for a dri avast software payment that i did not purchase. All free trials have auto rewnew off or have expired. Only paid for product is $20 a year and renews on November. I gussed the dri part was short for drive. I actually uninstalled avast driver updater yesterday, and even if that was the charge, its only $25 a year.. i want my money back. Why would you guys charge this excessive fee over nothing. I did not make this purchase.

The DRI*AVAST Software is the payment handling function and not relating to your Drive.

Most likely due to an auto renewal that wasn't cancelled.

Use the link in the post above yours.

If you had a recurring renewal subscription you would have had to cancel that or it would automatically renew.

Before shooting the messenger, I don't work for Avast, but am an Avast User.

You want help, we Avast users would love to give it, but we need information to work with.

Not knowing what useless links you have tried it is hard to suggest a solution.

They notice me by email that  I renewed my Avast Driver Updater subscription but i did not ! I haven't even used AVAST for a few months . How can I solve this?

The likelihood is you had an auto renewal recurring payment mandate set up, you would have had to cancel that or payment would occur.
