We contacted customer with a request for proof of charge to investigate this case with our distributor.

As you can see from their initial contact some of the things they stated in their response to you are in error. !. I did respond 2. no request for proof was made. and 3. I did tell them that I would send proof. Please forward my already sent response a copy of my proof.

Auto-Renewal Plan Terms
By completing your purchase, you have authorized Digital River to automatically renew your purchased license for successive renewal terms equal in length to your initial license term but no longer than 1 year, at the then-current renewal license price (plus applicable taxes) using your payment information provided for your initial purchase, until you cancel.
At least one email will be sent to you to remind you of each upcoming renewal. The Digital River Terms of Sale and Privacy Policy will apply to each renewal transaction. You also agree that Digital River may, upon notice to you, transfer your responsibility for the processing of renewals of your purchased license under the Auto-Renewal Plan to Avast Software a.s. ("Avast"), in which case Digital River will transfer your billing information to Avast or their payment processor, and Avast's terms of sale and privacy policy provided to you in Avast's reminder email will apply to each renewal transaction.
You may cancel your auto-renewal plan at any time by logging into the My Subscriptions portal (access information are included in this email or on the Customer Service Help page), selecting your product, and selecting the option to disable automatic renewal.

(The consumer indicated he/she ACCEPTED the response from the business.)
I would like to thank the Revdex.com for its assistant in obtaining the result provided by AVAST. Though not perfect it is much better than I would have received on my own.

Initial Business Response /* (1000, 5, 2015/12/21) */

Initial Business Response /* (1000, 5, 2014/04/16) */
Hello [redacted],
The 2/21/2014 purchase was already refunded however the October 2013 purchase will not be as it's already been 6 months after purchase.
Initial Consumer Rebuttal /* (3000, 7, 2014/04/17) */
(The consumer...

indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
The October 2013 purchase never solved my computer problems, and I kept informing Avast of this fact, and in January 2014 informed Avast to cancel my subscription. They have since refused to refund this subscription which was $39.98. I have received the X-XX-XXXX refund but had to go through my bank to get the refund credit. I want the amount I paid on October 2013 refunded to me.
Final Business Response /* (4000, 21, 2015/02/10) */
Customer was refunded for the only valid subscription which he had with us - order placed on Feb/2014.
He has no other subscription with us.
Final Consumer Response /* (4200, 23, 2015/02/12) */
(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
Avast is just skirting the issue. I am fed up with their excuses. They know they charged me twice for subscriptions.

My daughter's computer is completely shot. Avast somehow had to have put on the GrimeFighter Program, because my daughter did not have this on her computer. She woke up this morning 9/20/2016 and she started her computer and this GrimeFighter started loading down it came from Avast, and after it loaded all that was on my daughter's computer was a blue screen. She cannot use her computer. And she is disabled and was using her computer for school. Now she is in the middle of classes and cannot take her classes. We are both disabled, we draw a disability check, They wanted to charge us for something they did, anywhere from 119.99 -179.99 They also took money out of my checking account 2-3x a month for stuff I didn't even order. I have never had the money returned $100.00. And I am sure I never will. They are poor business people. The only thing they care about is more money!
