I was an existing McAfee user, they sent me an e-mail offering the new Total Protection suit for $59.99, when I actually logged into my account to buy it the price, as I was about to pay showed $79.99. $20 discount via postal voucher, so I bought it.
Today I began to follow the process to redeem the voucher only to find that you need to live in the US or Canada before you can get this.
WHAT A CON - they knew where I lived before they offered to sell me this, they are a software company for god sakes, how hard can it be to target your customer honestly, not send false information to sell in this duplicious manner?
They are happy to TAKE your money and deliver to you wherever you live, they just can't see there way to pay out the promised discount - sure it's in the small print - who reads that when installing software - particularly from a company you are already a customer of?
Has anyone else been ripped of by McAfee because you live off the East Coast of America?
