I want my money back
« on: July 07, 2012, 11:03:18 PM »
I can't believe how I was so easily ripped off by your company,

i just upgraded from the free version of avast to internet security upgrade for £29,99, UK

the how to download instructions are the worst I've ever seen, so much so that i was unable to make any sense on how to do so, that I've given up completely, i have installed many internet security packages all had simple to follow instructions unlike "avast waste of space",

when i needed to speak with a human i got your wonderful unhelpful confusing website, with no phone no:

I will make it my mission by using social networking and other forms of media to discreet your rubbish company,

Surprise me and be helpful by making it easy to get my money back,

b,

How about this... ;)

1. Download avast! Internet Security: http://files.avast.com/iavs5x/avast_internet_security_setup.exe
2. Follow instructions: http://www.avast.com/uninstall-utility (Run this tool for all prior installed avast! versions..!!)
3. Reinstall avast! with the downloaded installer from point 1.
4. Reboot.

I would like to know what instructions exactly you mean.
It's not even necessary to reinstall the program - when the license file is inserted (e.g. by doubleclicking on it), the Free version updates itself to AIS (if there's an Internet connection, of course) - so all you have to do is doubleclick the license file, and restart the computer after the update is done (which you'll be asked for).

As for the cashback, the best thing to do would be to contact the shop where you purchased it.
Or, you can contact sales@avast.com.

That's the problem... He wasn't ripped off but allowed his emotions to rule his actions instead of asking for help.  :(
