Twelve Days, and no Refund.
« on: May 03, 2017, 12:08:44 AM »
I requested a refund for Internet Security as it was charged to my account after deactivating auto-renewal, but have yet to hear back from the company. This was twelve days ago, and I'm starting to wonder what's going on with it.
My order number is 38904634600.
My ticket number is 788898.

Can anyone help me here?

Greetings, all.
I appreciate all the support I've received from the community so far.
It's been another two days, and still nothing, sadly.

Sorry to hear that, but all we can do is trying to get avast pay attention to your ticket/request.

About two years ago handling tickets was really horrible.
14 days or more or no response at all.
Moroni took over things and things really improved a lot.
Almost all tickets where handled in 1-3 business days.
Sure, with the major blooper avast made with the way they introduced the SafeZone browser to the users of the free version, I can imagine the stack of tickets grew a lot in a very short time.
But soon the handling was back to within a normal/acceptable time.

Since +/- 3 months the waiting time increased a lot and I really mean a lot !
All that avast is saying is "due to the increase of tickets it will take us longer to handle them" without mentioning a estimated time or telling what has caused the increase of tickets.

It would not surprise me at all if it has to do with the "screw-ups" in the latest versions/(micro) fixes.

It is already not possible anymore for users of the free product to create a ticket.
Really sad to see basically doesn't give any support anymore to them and it is especially sad that avast never told they would stop giving support through the ticket system. >:(
