Privacy suite
I've had a subscription for several years
Despite paying the annual renewal fee, it reads 'You are using a Trial Version' - '11 evaluation days left' -
Despite having my email receipt from them acknowledging payment it's been reading this from 14 days left and now down to 11.
I've emailed them repeatedly. I've posted for help and support on their website repeatedly.
At this time the website is down or otherwise unreachable.
They have made no effort whatsoever to assist or acknowledge me trying to reach them.
Claimed loss: Will lose use of the software when the 'alleged' trial version expiresand the money I paid to renew
Desired outcome: Restore full use of the software to me and - Provide genuine customer service for issues and concerns

CyberScrub
I renewed my CyberScrub subscription in April 2023. I've been a CyberScrub customer for many years. My renewal was paid through Digital River on April 12, 2023. My MyCommerce Order Number: [protected]. However, the software license has not updated and as a result program updates are not downloading. I've been trying since Sept 20 (when I discovered this problem) to get this resolved, but have had no reply from CyberScrub.
Desired outcome: If CyberScrub is out of business, I'd like to know that. Otherwise, I'd like the license updated per my April 2023 payment. If CyberScrub is not able/willing to honor my payment, then I would like a refund of $21.55.
Restoring my policy with CyberScrub
Email; [protected]@gmail.com
I have tried repeatedly to receive assistance from CyberScrub in restoring
my account with CyberScrub and its desktop logo after having a new hard drive installed on my computer and with some accounts, including CyberScrub not being reinstalled. I am a customer with CyberScrub for over 10years- tariff paid at end of january each year.
My computer skills are poor and I have failed to find technical assistance from your support page. I am, therefore, unable to use your product.
I hope you can be of assistance very soon.
Mr Joseph A McBride
Desired outcome: Speedy return of my Account

Privacy suite
My Privacy Suite subscription was automatically renewed on July 3, 2021. However, no instructions on how to update my software with the renewal was provided. Since then I have left messages on their customer support line and submitted several support tickets requesting help. It's now almost two weeks later and still no response whatsoever from Cyber Scrub. I reached out to their billing company who charged my credit card Mycommerce.com, but they just referred me back to Cyber Scrub.
In my experience and opinion, Cyber Scrub has never had adequate customer support for their products, but now it seems to be completely non-existent.
Desired outcome: I would like my PC's version of Privacy Suite to show that my subscription has been renewed rather than showing it to be expired.
no updates or customer support
For many years now there has been no customer support from Cyberscrub. Similarly no updates for existing products have been released and no completely new products have been seen.The existing "old" products continue to be sold but there is no recourse to a support system of any kind. With ever updated versions of Windows being released there are definitely functionality issues with some of the products but with no support available theses should really not be sold.
I still use their KeyChain password manager but it is now hopelessly out of date as it only supports opening URLs in Internet Explorer. What we need is statement from Cyberscrub as to what exactly is going on with these products and why is there no support whatsoever?
cyberscrub privacy suite
I purchased CyberScrub Lifetime Upgrade Insurance (LUI) with my original CyberScrub software purchase on March 14, 2004. Per the LUI agreement, I was to continue receiving all future versions of Privacy Suite (such as Privacy Suite 6.0, 7.0, etc.) at no additional charge.
I contacted CyberScrub on July 15, 2017 asking for a valid license key so I could upgrade from version 5 to version 6. In response, I received an e-mail on August 11, 2017 stating the following:
- "Your product [Lifetime Upgrade Insurance?] ... seems to be a very old version and is no longer supported." This comment made absolutely no sense since I have been using version 5 for years and simply wanted to upgrade to version 6 of the same software (Privacy Suite) per the LUI agreement.
- "Also, please note we [CyberScrub] had informed all of our LUI customers about the cancellation of the LUI policy and started yearly subscription model way back on September 8, 2008. I received no such communication. I actually received an upgrade notice shortly after this date for a version 5 upgrade.
A Knowledge Base article from November 17, 2009 (a year later than this alleged letter) stated LUI holders will get all future versions of Privacy Suite (such as Privacy Suite 6.0, 7.0, etc.) at no charge. However, LUI holders could participate in an optional Yearly Upgrade Subscription to obtain patches to clean updated third party applications.
It is entirely disillusioning that a presumably reputable company would simply unilaterally void a Lifetime Upgrade Insurance policy that CyberScrub offered and I accepted through my valid purchase. If this company can take this action, I have to believe that this company will say or do anything they want despite the execution of valid license agreements.
Privacy suite
October 2015 I order the cyberscrub privacy suite for $74.15. I installed it on my desktop and it worked fine. I then tried to install it on my laptop and I had problems with it. I contacted the company via their support link. They sent me a line to download a different version and said they would give me another key since apparently they do not let you...

Purchased their disk "Privacy Siite" which cost $59.95 and it comes with upgrades for life. Worked fine when installed, however when I wanted to install it into my new computer it won't work. I tried to contact them and everything is automated, you never get talk to a person. Left a message on the 18th of May, and today is the 21st. Needless to say another ripoff.
