Malwarebytes billing and contact issues

Malwarebytes billing and contact issues
Updated by user Aug 18, 2025

Nothing resolved and no contact from Malwarebytes

Original review updated Aug 18, 2025

I have found Malwarebytes very cumbersome and difficult to contact.

There is no email support address, and I am not sure that my issue is resolved.

I cancelled my account and my subscription on the Malwarebytes website on 15 May 2025, and assumed that everything was finalised.

Much to my surprise I received the notice attached below, advising me of future billing

Preferred solution: Confirmation that I will not receive further billing, and that my account has been closed

I have had no feedback from Malwarebytes, but no billing has occurred on my account.Hopefully I will have no further issues.It is unlikely that I will ever do business with that company again

No contact

I tried to log into my account. It says it will send a verification code to my email. I do not get one and I can't talk to anyone.

Cancel service

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I subscribed to malware bytes free 7 day trial. Decided to cancel before 7 day and couldn't find anywhere to do it.

Money scam. If you can't find the secret way to cancel, they got you.

I don't have enough money in the bank to cover the membership now so I guess it will be a hot check charge. I know some people are happy with it, but as for me I will never try for it again.

User's recommendation: Be very careful. No phone number to cancel. Don't be hooked on the 7 day free trial. Once you sign up for it there is no way out.ut.
