I am trying to purchase 10 avast internet security licence but i am not able to make the payment successfully. The service support from avast support is basically pushing the problem around and giving canned answers. Been more than week and still I cannot make any payments successfully to buy avast internet security licence.
I am from Malaysia. I have tried different card of my friend also it also fails in payment authorization. This is sickening. I don't have a problem making online payment for other services such as airlines tickets etc. so it is a avast payment gateway issue both for Visa and MasterCard.
I also currently have three licences which are due sometime this year. If problems like this happens -Goodbye Avast.

Exactly the case
Eddy- you have not read what I wrote- I am trying to buy avast internet security for my pcs. My visa payment card is not a problem,that is i can use it to buy other online products from other companies like airlines. Avast payment gateway is the problem.- the transaction is rejected.I have tried with an alternative card same problem.
Static guy- From avast store online- to buy it only takes me to one place that I can pay. All I got is canned answers not helpful in anyway. How to switch to different payment provider-please show me how?.
my report number was (# SWG-296-13798).
I never had these problems last year when I bought avast internet security for my other pcs.

When did you submit that support ticket? If it has been longer than 2 weeks, we can report this post to the moderator and an avast team will be able to see it. I don't know how to report this post but Eddy will do that for you.

I don't know how to switch to different providers, because I only use the Free version. Eddy may know how to switch

I sure did read what you wrote, but you haven't provided certain details.
That is why I asked for them.

All I want is to purchase an Avast internet security licence for my 10 pcs. Pay for it with no problems and get on with my life.
If digital river service is a problem how to go about using a different provider. Tell me how. From the avast site how to switch to a different provider to complete my transaction.
Thank you

selva.rg,
we are waiting for response from our payment provider. So far we don;t know what is the reason behind your payment being refused by the payment provider. We asked our payment provider to reach you directly to fix the problem.
I'm sorry for all the troubles. Lets move the conversation to the ticket where we can discuss it in more details.

Lukas
Quality is also a feature.
