Nag To Activate ... 7 Days After Activation

I am trying to stop Bitdefender nag emails.


I renewed my subscription on 29-April-2014 ... and activated all PCs before the end of April.


Today I received the third email to renew my subscription ... 10 days later!


-----


On 29-April-2014 I renewed my subscription with our local agent "BDAustraila.com"


On the same day I received an email with my activation code for 3 PCs.


I have entered the activation code on two PCs (without rejection), before the end of April.


Today the BIS-2013 window shows 366 days remaining.


Today I received an email threatening me with "FINAL NOTICE" if I don't renew my subscription.


I phoned BDAustralia and they told me to send an email to "customerservice@bitdefnder.com".


So I Forwarded the FINAL NOTICE email to "customerservice@bitdefnder.com" with a covering note


I have already renewed my subscription with bdaustralia.com about a week


ago.


I have also activated all active PCs (only 2 of 3 PCs are active)


That email was returned to me as spam, telling to go to web support ... FAQs > did I find an answer > No > FAQs ... again


When I log onto Bitdefender > My account ... 365 days remaining on my subscription ???


I cannot find an email address for Bitdefender.


FAQs > did I find an answer > click > FAQs AGAIN.


Very frustrating.


Thank you

This message was assembled over two days while I attempted to find ...


1. a BD email address that works


2. a sub-forum that looks like it is active, responses are woefully slow.

  • Hi AdrianHa :)


    Chat support looks hopeful.


    For now I have chosen to ignore BD nag mails, they are costing me serious money ... my time!


    I am down-under (Australia) quite often we are out of sync (for opening hours with USA or Europe)


    http://www.bitdefender.com/support/consumer.html


    ... is a circular (go no where link)


    Firstly a "Select product (+ 2 other criteria)" window pops up


    - select all relative options


    - offerings are all irrelevant


    - scroll to bottom of page

    Cant find a solution for your problem?


    "Open an email ticket " link


    -----


    ... and I am back to http://www.bitdefender.com/support/consumer.html ... AGAIN


    Select email (link) at top of page


    select product (+ 2 other criteria) window ... I already have about 3 times so far


    - complete the select product details


    ... and I am taken to http://www.bitdefender.com/support/interne...activation.html


    None of the offerings fit my problem.


    I have nothing to fix. Bitdefender have to correct their customer data base (and I cannot do that)

    AGAIN !


    Checking my bookmarks I went through all this nonsense last year with Bitdefender.


    I am trying to run a busy consulting business , I don't have time to chase up incompetence.


    All BD sub-forums I have looked at are extremely quiet, with several threads completely ignored for weeks on end.


    I have decided to ignore Bitdefender nag-mails, if it back fires I will be asking for a refund (as I am entitled under our federal consumer laws)


    When BD get their act together the program works well and has for the past 15 months.


    I was given a three month bonus when an update wiped out my Win-7 settings.


    The program works well ... but BDs admin is very poor. Especially when I have to jump through endless hoops, and get nowhere.

  • Hi,


    The second link I gave you is >> http://www.bitdefender.com/support/contact-us.html <<


    Note the difference, it is CONTACT US.html not CONSUMER.


    That second link asks for details,email, license etc. and puts you in contact with support.


    (From here it defaults to http://www.bitdefender.co.uk/support/contact-us.html )

    Thank you AdrianHa for good details :)


    This forum is not very "intuitive" ... to mis-use the word in its true meaning.


    The latest "irritation" is I am receiving an email for EVERY new thread, including the avalanche of troll threads. They appear on this forum in blocks of about 6 or 8. Not a good look for an AV organisation.


    The only "subscription" settings I can find is "Subscribe to a forum"


    A new thread


    I only want to subscribe individual threads of my choosing.


    Bitdefender Forum > Your control panel ... does not have a listing for emails/subscriptions.


    Thank you to all the user/members who have assisted :)
