Ratings and Reviews
Settings Don't Persist!
I keep turning on the global settings only to see them turned off when I go back to settings, what gives? Why don't they stay on?
Support is non existent! Website says click on AI chatbot, but nothing happens. No other way to contact. I expect better from MWB. I've was a lifetime Windows subscriber a now migrated to MAC. I hopt I don't regret it.
Malwarebytes can act like ransomware.
I have been a subscriber of their premium products which includes Scanning, Privacy and a VPN. I received an email providing a glimpse of my data. It contained the WRONG NAME and WRONG birthdate. I never provided either. I asked that this be corrected and here is their latest reply:
The digital footprint report provides a glimpse into what information is associated with the information you provide. To see where that information is and how to correct it, you must subscribe to our Identity Theft Protection program. You can see more about it here.
