Resolved after posting on here but took over a month. I tried to take advantage of an offer for paying early for increased protection to discover they have taken payments twice for one subscription... See more

I WANT TO COMPLIMENT ALISA TO WHOM I…

I WANT TO COMPLIMENT ALISA TO WHOM I HAVE JUST BEEN DEALING WITH. I HAD A PROBLEM WITH MY LATE HUSBAND'S ANDROID PHONE IN RELATION TO MY BULLGUARD SECURITY. ALISA HAS SPENT A VERY LONG TIME HELPING ME THIS EVENING. SHE HAS BEEN TOTALLY PROFESSIONAL, VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE, KIND, CARING AND PATIENT AND MY PROBLEM IS NOW RESOLVED. I MUST ADD THAT I AM SO IMPRESSED WITH YOUR BULLGUARD TEAM BECAUSE I HAVE HAD OCCASION TO BE ON THE CHAT A FEW TIMES RECENTLY. MY HUSBAND PASSED AWAY IN JANUARY, I AM AGED 72 AND NOT VERY TECH SAVVY, YOUR TEAM HAVE ALL BEEN AMAZING AND NEVER MADE ME FEEL STUPID AND ALL ISSUES WERE RESOLVED. THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH, STAY SAFE AND BE WELL. BEST WISHES MARILYN LOW, GLASGOW

Nope.

Bullgaurd is a good security package, but will charge you twice the price for renewing through their app as opposed to purchasing online from their official store, and they will slam the double price advert at you every time you start up your computer through their app.

this is seriously cheeky, as they will offer a 25 percent discount on that double price, so you would still spend an extra £10.00, just to renew.

not good bullgaurd - i have renewed twice before realising this...

Edit, this better deal was from your official store, not a partner, you are advertising a higher price directly to my computer in the hope I go through that and pay you more for a product that you sell cheaper, your comment on offering deals for long time users is false, you use your direct advertising to trick people into a "good deal"

Hello Jack,


At BullGuard, we sell our products directly to customers through our online shop. We also partner up with online and offline (retail) shops, who receive BullGuard products to sell on to their customers.

We have a recommended price which reflects the value of the product, and this is the price we sell it for through our web shop.

Our Marketing team has implemented a loyalty program that runs automatically, to ensure that loyal customers receive a discount for their renewal purchase. Occasionally, we also have campaigns that are designed to attract new customers which, sometimes, include better discounts (Black Friday is a good example). Our partners may also sell BullGuard with offers of their own, or in bundles with other products.

If we were to set the system to match the lowest price at any given time we would have to change the pricing continuously, probably leaving some customers feeling cheated because the price they bought at yesterday had suddenly been lowered. In addition, it would complicate matters for our partners. We would also not be able to cover our production costs and would end up going out of business.

To compensate for this tricky problem and because we do highly value our customers, we allow existent users and recommend it whenever possible, to renew their subscription using the best offer they can find, online or offline, from us or from our partners.

Best regards,

Excellent Customer Service from BullGuard

Just received an excellent support package from Larisa at BullGuard when I was experiencing a problem due to my lack of experience with modern technology.
I felt extremely happy with the level of support and the way in which Larisa "held my hand" (figuratively) throughout the whole process.
Bullguard are an excellent provider of Computer Security and Customer Service - I cannot recommend them too highly.
Thank you for everything Larisa

Uninstall to kill processes...

All the services works great, but when "it" decides to scan or "investigate", you might as well leave your laptop, as Bullgard OS service runs 5+ processes, and you can't stop or disable them when/if needed.

I needed "full power" for a while, but couldn’t abort ongoing Bullguard OS processes, and I had to uninstall the entire package just to keep using my laptop for some high-priority tasks, and I’ll have to reinstall it again when I’m done…
I purchased the full version, and have been very impressed and satisfied so far, but this is the 4th time i have to uninstall the tool just to ensure maximum performance and resources for other purposes...
It should be possible simply to disable Bullguard processes “temporarily” (scanning etc.) to focus on multimedia purposes etc, and you shouldnøt have uninstall the entire package, just to be able to disable it "for a while"...

Horrible

Horrible. Was told that their product was good so I started using them a few years ago. Just went to renew and to expand from one device to 3 and so paid for Install so I didnt have to do anything. What then followed was a condescending webchat with an "advisor" who basically blamed me for buying the install when it couldn't be used. Apparently it was all my fault and that, despite having logged in (so they knew I was a returning customer) I should have known NOT to pay for the install which wasnt required. Apparently "webpages dont do that". Anyway, Id strongly recommend you stay away from having to do anything with their "customer service" team as it was an hour of my life i will never get back.
