Initial Consumer Rebuttal /* (3000, 7, 2015/02/04) */
(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
They did not give an explanation in regards to the complaint. They're technician used the fraudulent techniques and caused my computer to not work properly. They're technician tried to sell me the product and when I refused, my computer was not operating properly. The technician told me he set the computer to operate improperly. They have completely ignored my complaint. I do not accept their response. If they do not sell a product, why did the tech try so hard to get me to purchase this security product.
Final Business Response /* (4000, 9, 2015/02/13) */
Hello.
The service was purchased from TechLiveConnect.com. Avangate only processes the payments from them.
The technician working on your computer is a TechLiveConnect employee, not Avangate.
You comments have already been forwarded to service provider for further review.
At Avangate, we can assist you with refunds or any payment-related inquiry.
Please tell me if there is anything else we can do for you.
Sincerely,

(The consumer indicated he/she ACCEPTED the response from the business.)
I appreciate Avangate's explanation. While it is still unclear who is ultimately responsible for the decision behind this tactic I have received a refund for the unwanted second purchase. I will not give BitDefender or Avangate an opportunity to use such a tactic on me in the future however. Once my one year subscription for the product expires I'll select a new vendor to deal with in the future.

Initial Consumer Rebuttal /* (3000, 12, 2015/06/25) */
(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
Avangate were attempting to sell me online security protection but never did it because I unplugged my computer and told them I did not want the service due to how it was presented. The supervisor stated he would refund the money but there is no bank transaction that proves that the refund was done. Even the bank tried to pursue a refund from the company but were not able to get it due to the process of how the transaction was handled. The company called me 2x trying to sell me service again recently and when I told them I did not get my refund they said they would have their supervisor call me but neither times did anyone call me. They repeatedly gave me the run around. I have still not received a genuine refund only given lip service that it would be done. They need to show proof of their refund to Revdex.com, the bank and I that it occurred.
Final Consumer Response /* (3000, 22, 2015/10/05) */
The company stated they made payment but I have never received any payment. Furthermore, the company has called me multiple times harassing and the threatening me on the phone. One technician stated he would have everyone in their own call me! I have asked them to take me off there list and put me on there do not call list as my legal right but they continue to call me.
Final Business Response /* (4000, 24, 2015/10/20) */
Hello [redacted],
I am sorry to hear that you are still contacted by this company.
I have further checked and after the payment was processed in December 2014, the vendor, Albion Global, placed a partial refund request for you, and the processed reimbursement was for 410 USD. The transaction reference was already provided to you in the previous correspondence XXXXXXXXX.
We have now processed the rest of your refund, and the amount of 189 USD will be visible into your account, within the next 2-4 business days.
We kindly recommend you to call your bank directly for more information about the two refunds processed last year and now. You can also provide them with the next authorization code for the transaction XXXXXX.

Final Consumer Response /* (2000, 26, 2015/07/17) */
I finally received my refund of $299.98.

CUSTOMER SERVICE SHOULD NOT RAISE THEIR VOICE TO CUSTOMERS, BUT THEY DID.
On Jan 23, 2015 my 92 year old father (wears hearing aids and sight is declining) received a pop-up on his computer saying it was infected. The pop-up prompted him to call the number listed to get the computer cleaned. He paid $249.98 on his card to get his computer cleaned.

On Jan 31 he called and said something was wrong with his computer. I went over the same day and noticed everything had changed. His display was different, files were missing and most disturbing to him, his email addresses were missing from outlook. He showed me the receipt for payment and I told him that if it were ME, I would call and get a refund because I THINK that what they did "fixing" the computer actually messed it up. He agreed and I told him I would call for him.

I called the so called "customer service" number. My call was promptly answered. I explained that I was calling on behalf of my father, told them what I experienced as I was sitting at his computer and said he wanted to cancel the service and get a refund. I was met with polite resistance AT FIRST. I told the CSR this was not up for discussion and that I was "giving them an opportunity to do the right thing and provide great customer service by providing a refund" as mentioned in their guarantee. The CSR transferred me to another person (everyone I spoke to had foreign accents) named Mr. [redacted]. I explained my experience again. He tried to talk me out of cancelling but eventually said a refund would be issued (full amount) in 8-10 working days. THAT IS WHEN ALL HECK BROKE LOOSE.

As I was going through a system restore on his computer, I received CALL #1 from their "customer service". It was a female who raised her voice and said they would not issue a refund and that my dad did not get a pop-up, implying he found the company's number late a night and called them unprompted. She berated me for about 3 minutes. I told her too that I was "giving them an opportunity to do the right thing and provide great customer service by providing a refund". I also said I would contact the credit card company to handle the issue if they did not agree to a refund. She continued to shriek at me so I hung up. Within a minute I got CALL #2. It was a man who started in again. I told him he had 2 minutes to explain himself. He said all I need is one and started in on me again. I broke in and told him to call my phone if he wanted to discuss the issue. I provided him my cell number and promptly hung up.

I then received another call from them which did not last long. I was done with them. For the next 10 minutes they called my number several times as well as my fathers.

I work at a large airport and am well versed in customer service. If I EVER treated a single customer like they treated me I would be fired immediately, and rightfully so. Yes, I did raise my voice a bit and did get terse with them, but when someone tries to take advantage of MY father, you get what you deserve.

This computer service may work for some people, but at $249.98 I think you can do much better off the shelf and not have to berated by angry rude foreigners.

Dear [redacted],
I am sorry to hear about this unpleasant situation.
Avangate manages the eStore for Bitdefender.com, as well as for other Software and Software-as-a-Service companies, providing online payments to their shoppers. We do...

not manufacture any products.
The charge of $ 89.95 has been applied indeed as an automatic renewal of the license originally bought on XXXX-XX-XX , as the option remained enabled during the ordering process on Bitdefender.com. The automatic renewal is stated in the shopping card, right before the "Confirm Order" button, as:
"Continuous Protection provided by Bitdefender will keep your computer protected from latest viruses and Internet threats by Automatically Renewing your subscription at the then-current renewal price plus applicable tax. You will be notified by email about renewal prior to the expiration of your subscription. Without taking any actions you authorize Avangate, online vendor of Bitdefender, to automatically charge your credit card by using the contact and billing information you provided for your purchase today."
Below it, there is the option of disabling this feature, as well as the mention that it can be removed at any time by contacting the Customer Care.
Furthermore, a subscription expiration notification has been sent to [redacted]@vanalt.com by Avangate, 7 days ahead of the charge being processed, allowing you to decide whether to continue with the charge or to simply disable the auto-renewal. Unfortunately, in some cases, the notification may be received in the Bulk/Spam folder, rather than the Inbox, depending on the security levels of your e-mail address.
We would like to confirm that we have disabled the auto renewal option for you, so there will be no future charges.
In order to settle this matter we have canceled the transaction and processed a full refund ( $ 89.95) for you . The money will be returned to your account within the next couple of business days.

Dear [redacted]
As you can see, we are searching for a "Working App",
Your 10d "satisfaction" period it's about that.
Our issue it's about a non working offered software, common called "non received service"
If you offer something that don't works, then you are selling a "fraudulent product"...example a Car that don't turns on...or a phone that never was able a call because the battery it's bad.
Please understand that we tried to put this working with 2 licenses and 2 different phones, but your customer service was unable to help because the software have a bug that another company resolved in other phones we own.
We see 2 options...
1. Fix the app
2. Refund
We will be happy if you can fix it...if not, there is no options to start a complaint process with Paypal and/or our Legal Department because sell a non working software.
And FYI, if you fix it, we can buy more licenses for the company stuff.
Please, review it with good faith and let me know ASAP.
Thanks

Dear [redacted],
I am sorry to hear about this unpleasant situation.
Avangate manages the eStore for Iobit.com, as well as for other Software and Software-as-a-Service companies, providing online payments to their shoppers. We do not...

manufacture any products.
The charge of $ 24.99 has been applied indeed as an automatic renewal of the license originally bought on XXXX-XX-XX , as the option remained enabled during the ordering process on Iobit.com. The auto-renewal policy is communicated to the customer in the Software / Service Provider`s Terms and Conditions, to which you have agreed when you purchased the software/service.
Below it, there is the option of disabling this feature, as well as the mention that it can be removed at any time by contacting the Customer Care.
Furthermore, a subscription expiration notification has been sent to [redacted]@aol.com by Avangate, 7 days ahead of the charge being processed, allowing you to decide whether to continue with the charge or to simply disable the auto-renewal. Unfortunately, in some cases, the notification may be received in the Bulk/Spam folder, rather than the Inbox, depending on the security levels of your e-mail address.

In order to settle this matter we have cancelled the transaction and processed a full refund ( $ 24.99) for you .The money will be returned to your account within the next couple of business days.
Kind regards,
[redacted] R.

Thank you. A refund is all I wanted in the first place.

Initial Business Response /* (1000, 8, 2015/01/23) */
Dear [redacted],
I'm sorry to hear about your horrible experience.
Please be aware that Avangate solely manages the eStore for www.iobit.com. We do not manufacture, sell, nor offer any technical support for the products offered on...

their website.
Our system does indeed show you have placed an order for the Advanced SystemCare 8 PRO from IObit on XXXX-XX-XX. However, we do not deal with activating the product, promoting it - or any of the items sold by any of our Partners, nor troubleshoot any of the issues the software might have.
I have forwarded your case to IObit and they will further investigate this situation for you and, based on their results, they will contact you directly to offer a suitable resolution.
Best regards,
[redacted] C.

Initial Consumer Rebuttal /* (3000, 10, 2015/01/27) */
(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
I have never received the above the Avangate customer support except one email that wanted information on the telephone # and details of what happened, although it was explained to them in the email sent to them by you. The above explanation was never received by me. From what I have seen above their explanation is based on "partners" of the product which is unacceptable. the Product is AVANGATE whether it is Iobit, or their internet security product. I have checked on Google & have seen all the complaints that have been filed, seems I'm not the only one that has been scammed, but to make sure you understand I HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE ABOVE INFORMATION.

I have received an email from [redacted] from ASC support (Iobit) asking if I activated the program and I replied to her I did. There was no apology, none whatsoever for what their technician did. Would I renew with them next year ....I doubt it.
