| Symantec sued over subscription charge> This happened to me a few years ago. I made the mistake of buying an online license for NIS and I got an email about autorenewal I never signed up for. And in order to turn it off you have to know your original ORDER number. So after spending a ton of time on that I get online and turn off the autorenewal per the instructions. What happened? Got charged anyway. Called to get it canceled and after a few days I got a refund. The next year...got charged again. After that I just reported the card missing and got a new one with a new number.
Symantec are skunks and they ruin every consumer product they get. They trashed everything Peter Norton and they trashed Nexland. | |

I use those throw-away credit card numbers available form Bank of America and some other banks that let you set a finite amount of money and that expire in as little as 2 months. So, when the yearly subscription comes up they have no choice but to request that I renew. They can't renew automatically. | |
