Avast are cheaters
« on: August 22, 2014, 07:09:35 PM »
i was a avast free user. i was given a one time offer to upgrade to avast pro for just 10$(599 INR). but they charged me16$. I find this cheating. I submitted a ticket mentioning the same and there was no response from their customer service. This is very much irritating. i hate avast now. i cudnt find the option for a refund too, very clever avast. i wont buy from u guys nor do i will recommend your product

In what currency was the offer?
In USD or INR?
How and in what currency did you pay?

E.G.
If the offer was in INR and you paid in USD there can be a difference due to changing exchange rates.

You did find the option to ask for a refund, it is the ticket system.
At what date did you submitted the ticket?
Keep in mind it can take 10 business days (2 weeks).

LOL you call avast cheaters.Buddy,there are av's like quickheal and npav which market so much and provide you worst protection with absolutely double the prices.

Avast offers so much stuff with great protection capabilities all for free  ::)

i paid in INR. May be avast is better but billing more than they advertise hurts.

You should have gotten a automatic confirmation.
Did you got it?
Perhaps in your spam folder?
Check to make sure you have used the correct email and did not made a typo.

Rahul, 3 months is indeed too long.
Please mention the ticket number here as David asked.
I'm pretty sure someone from avast will take care of it a.s.a.p.

3 months is long time. When the refund process is initiated then it's mostly automated. Bank to bank communication. I'll check on our side...
Quality is also a feature.

Hi Rahul5,

Your refund was posted to your card on 3 September. Could you please check it with your bank?
