McAfee Arvostelua 3 157

Dreadful software. Completely cut me off from the internet so that I couldn't access databases I needed to use for my degree. I'm so behind in my work from being blocked access to my university platform to download materials! I'm furious

Useless, expencive. And comes preeinstalled with reminders for you to get premium, that is impossible to remove.
Utter sham and garbage

I'd give it a o if I could. I had it for two days and decided to cancel. Good luck with that. I'm going to write a review every week. My computer is at it's end of life as the say. I'm getting a new one on 02-13-2026. They 50 bucks but no more. I'm going to put a good word in for them at the better business B.

I bought a new D/T computer. It came with 1 mth McAfee security free. That has finished. Now McAfee bombard me with treats that my computer has 3, 4, sometimes 5 viruses. Every 30 seconds or so a window pops up WARNING, INFESTED, TAKE ACTION AAAAAAAGH. I went into settings and removed their ap. No difference Still they bombard me. I went into their website to try and unsubscribe - not possible. The only option they give me to stop this bombardment is to subscribe for a minimum of a year. I just want rid of McAfee annoying the hell out of me.

Sono stata cliente per anni, ultimamente PC lento e pop-up. Per McAfee era 'Tutto sicuro', ma Malwarebytes (gratis) ha trovato subito 9 minacce ignorate.
Rimborso negato perché l'assistenza sostiene che questi file "rallentano solo il PC senza danneggiarlo, quindi non sono virus".

Vendete un prodotto promettendo velocità e ottimizzazione, ma ammettete di ignorare deliberatamente ciò che rallenta il sistema.

Disinstallato McAfee, il PC è rinato, molto più veloce. Risparmiate i soldi e usate Windows Defender.

I cancelled my McAfee subscription, and now they are sending me all kinds of pop-ups trying to get me to buy it again. I have tried to contact them to stop all this nonsense, and they ignore me. I am going to have to turn them into the Better Business Bureau and possibly get my attorney involved. BE VERY CAREFUL IF YOU CHOOSE TO USE MCAFEE. They are not good people!

Purchased a PC with free 2 yrs of cover, The supplier currys advised the cover could be claimed by the 2 cards but McAfee only accepted one yrs' cover unable to get any response from them all automated systems.

Me han renovado un contrato que previamente había anulado. Y no solo eso me lo han hecho por 3 dispositivos cuando solo tengo 1. No hay manera de arreglarlos

Too many up sell pop up ads! They are out of control. I am looking for a new anti virus for multiple devices. I left Norton for the same annoying up sell pop up ads! It's like they think they are an airline and can charge additional for a bag / seat choice. Out of control!!!

Ze verzieken iedere dag mijn ouwe dag ze terroriseren mij met hun reclame

Worse than a virus.. It slows down my computer more than any other software, and every time I have to manually re-connect the firewall and web security, when I start my compouter.

Net als iedereen : 30 dagen van te voren wordt een abonnement al geïncasseerd tegen een belachelijk tarief . Een jaar via Ibood geprobeerd daarna incasseren die h u f .. ers ruim van te voren tegen een belachelijk tarief het volgend jaar. Site is ook waardeloos en de drempel om abonnement te cancellen is gigantisch hoog. Site niet transparant, onduidelijk hoe je van je abonnement afkomt . GA NOOIT DIT BEDRIJF IN ZEE!

Ze zouden een term moeten introduceren: de ‘mca-fee’ betalen. Je betaald eerst een laag bedrag van 30-60€,een jaar later automatisch 120.
Als je het niet doorhebt zo €600,- Zoals ik.
En zelfs als je deze belachelijke bedragen betaald heb je geen toegang tot alles: zeker 2 upgrades waar mcafee je graag aan herinnerd dat je ze nog niet hebt.
Ook wordt het online ‘scareware’ genoemd omdat het jou constant probeert te overtuigen dat je zonder mcafee al lang door de russen zou zijn gehackt, waarna de kgb en putin je persoonlijk komen omleggen.
Ik heb de mca-fee betaald, wees niet zoals ik, leer van mij.

Renouvellement :
Ils ont tenté de me prélever 1 mois avant la fin de mon abonnement annuel !!!

Après avoir annoncé que je ne voulais pas poursuivre mon abonnement :
Je n'arrivais plus à accéder à certains sites Internet que je fréquentais régulièrement ! Dès que j'ai désinstallé le logiciel, comme par hasard, tout s'est remis à fonctionner correctement.
De plus, j'ai constaté que certains autres réglages avaient été modifiés sans que j'en sois à l'origine.

Après ma résiliation :
Ils m'envoient des mails 3 fois par jour pour me dire de renouveler mon abonnement car "vous êtes en danger".

McAfee est à fuir !

dog shit from ass

This is how I got ensnared by McAfee. For about a year I got many phone calls from scammers who identify themselves as McAfee technicians. I did not talk to anyone until recently. They requested to access the computer remotely to check that the system works properly. They installed some software and proceeded to work on it. What they were actually doing was stealing my data and my identity. Sudden large withdrawals from
my checking accounts were transferred out. In addition they maxed out my credit cards AND opened
5 new credit cards and maxed them out. I contacted the financial institutions involved and I am still trying to recoup my funds. My credit rating went from 820 to 700

When I tried to find the phone for McAfee customer service on the home page, there was NO info that I could use, just marketing. I went to google again, I found another page that listed the phone number for McAfee, but unfortunately it was a scam. I finally called McAfee I was told that McAfee does not call customers directly. told lAlso, the Google listing takes you to a page where they promote their services. there is NO phone number or customer service info. II searched google again and I found a MvAfee customer service. I called the number but it was not McAfee, but the scammers and they got more info from me.

When I finally reached McAfee customer service, I
recited the whole incident, they listened politely but asked no questions (I had some info) but they asked no questions and offered no solutions. When I called yesterday I was told that they are working on it. DISAPPOINTING. Please take this lesson and protect yourself, trust nobody and beeify

I'm writing this review after an incredibly frustrating experience with McAfee's customer support that has left me questioning why I ever chose this company.

The Issue:
I accidentally purchased the wrong plan and contacted support the very next day to cancel and switch to the correct one. What should have been a simple fix turned into an absolute nightmare.

Outdated and Invasive Verification Process:
Despite being logged into my account, where McAfee has full access to all my information, their support team refused to help me without going through an absurdly outdated verification process. They actually asked me to provide my credit card details over the webchat ( full details number,ccv,exp date).
In 2026, this is completely unacceptable and honestly feels like a security risk.

Here's what makes this even more ridiculous: they have the ability to send verification codes via SMS or email (standard practice for every other company), but they chose not to use this simple, secure method. Instead, they insisted on practices that feel like they're straight out of the 1980s.

Zero Help When I Needed It:
All I wanted was to cancel a mistaken purchase made less than 24 hours earlier and get the right plan. The support team was unhelpful, inflexible, and seemed more interested in making the process difficult than actually assisting a paying customer.

Bottom Line:
Between the misleading information during purchase, the archaic verification requirements, and the complete lack of helpful support, I cannot recommend McAfee to anyone. There are plenty of other antivirus options out there with modern customer service practices and actual support when you need it.
Save yourself the headache and choose a company that values its customers and operates in the current century.

Te dwingend en intimiderend

They are trash, it is pay to to win equivilant of a video game. you pay 159.99 for a basic service, then when they find an issue then you need to pay another 30 to 50 bucks to remove that problem, or they find your information online and then you need to pay them to remove that. trash. why would i want a service of 159.99 that doesnt do anything about the problem, it just says I have them.

LADRI. Se qualcuno può gentilmente illuminarci su come contattare l'assistenza clienti per disattivare il loro maledetto abbonamento sarebbe fantastico!!
Nessuna possibilità di disattivare il rinnovo automatico autonomamente, nè di annullare l'abbonamento (incluso nel PC comprato), nè di contattarli. AIUTO
