GeekBuddy

I think i $#*! my pants on what these people are doing. Not really though. These people love to lie to you. Scams are gay anyways. Don't trust these people. This is just a reminder review.

I was downloading a game onto my computer and it came up with "do you want this app to do changes to your computer?" after i said yes random apps started downloading i deleted them all then GeekBuddy popped up saying things like my computer is not protected against malware and other $#*! like that, when i played a game or something on full screen it'll crash then say like Steam has crashed.
I knew it was a scam because i try to uninstall it but it kept popping up with scareware. Earlier this year i downloaded an uninstaller to remove geekbuddy thanks to their software they got rid of it, I've not gotten any scareware pop-ups from geekbuddy COMODO anymore. This is coming from a high school student (17)

I was happy with Comodo, everything seemed really good. I wasn't sure about the GeekBuddy support but at the same time figured that support is handy if that's what it is. I had a problem with my browser the first 'tech' vanished after I explained my problem, the second Geekbuddy guy also rapidly exited the coversation the third Geek spent roughly 20 mins AAAh remotely addressing my issue he then mumbled that I need Tech support and vanished leaving me with a dead computer as in nothing and I mean nothing worked. My desk top is now smashed up and awaiting recycling. So yet again sorry to be boring why is an apparently reputable company such as Comodo merging itself with these Geek ****holes?. All over the net people seem to asking should I keep GeekBuddy? Or should I disinstall it?. Don't worry they'll decide for you.

They all have canned responses. To be honest, if you say "What's 1+1?" the GeekBuddy support agent will reply with "In order to answer that I need you to give me access to your computer." I never said yes but this most recent time right after I clicked No my PC honestly got a blue screen and the caps lock light started flashing (it wouldn't let me turn on my laptop). I had to watch a video on my tablet to get my PC working again, but my PC would just freeze up each time and I had to keep repeating the process of removing my battery, unplugging charger, holding Power, etc. The only way I could fix my PC was to do a System Restore from Safe Mode. I can honestly say GeekBuddy is a scam, at least the Comodo version. I'm amazed they can somehow illegally do this to you without being sued.

Do not use this company. I was coerced into buying a 3 year plan instead of the one year. Low and behold, I was charged for both. After they "worked" on my computer, it ran the same as before. I have tried to cancel as I was told I had 30 days to cancel. They keep putting up obstacles to giving me the refund. I just received my SECOND email telling they want feedback as to why I am canceling before they will give me a refund. I already answered the first one. Oh, also I just found out that someone tried to use one of my online accounts to buy something. Really strange that this happened after I allowed remote access to my computer. Yes, I am really stupid and naïve. Please don't get suckered in like I did. I should have looked at the complaints before I did this.

This is the worst example of customer "lack of" support I have ever come across. Their so called gurus are iinept to say the least. Completely incapable of solving problems once their "cheat Sheets" run out of ideas. I have wasted many hours talking to countless support agents who know next to nothing. I cannot completely uninstall it from my computer either other thanm doing a clean install from the boot disk to remove it. Nothing short of being malware from an Internet Security company. Oh dear.

Was having the Geek Buddy pop up on my computer, never bought it or installed it. Called to have it removed as it didn't show in uninstall programs. First tech Hannah, told me it came with Adobe, ok I usually watch for add ons but might have missed it. Asked how to remove it, hang up. Called back got someone who I could hardly understand, lots of noise in the background, like the call center is a can. He hung up. Called again got Randy, had me restart the computer, remoted in, saw what I was talking about and hung up. Called back got Justin, he told me to reinstall the trial and then it should show up to delete, he then hung up.

I did not install GeekBuddy on my computer but it just one day popped up and I have been trying to uninstall it for months. All it does is give you popups on the side of your screen with "critical issues" that are completely inexistent and annoying. Once i went to my programs to uninstall it removed the file from my computer but the program was still running. While writing this review, GeekBuddy popped up four times. I am warning you STAY AWAY!

They asked if I needed help, I was honest upfront to safe them time that I am on disability and can not afford to purchase but if they are offering free one time fix fine. 1st guy said no problem let me have you talk to 2nd guy. So this guy asked when computer started to have issues and I said today when Firefox booted up and then there site and I would like to have it taken off. He said do you mind approving me linking in to your computer. I was concerned so I did see on line company was real but I should have read reviews first. So he comes back said yes you have problems and for $$$$ we can help. I was like hello I told you guys I don't have $$. So here I let him look into my computer and he wasted his time and mine. Now making my faith in people less than before. So please be wear. I think they might be in with fire fox. I am just very disappointed, oh yeah told him I was going to do this review so he went in to my computer once more and did some crazy stuff, so I am spending hours trying to clean up.

RIP-OFF JUST LIE AFTER LIE.RIP-OFF JUST LIE AFTER LIE.RIP-OFF JUST LIE AFTER LIE.RIP-OFF JUST LIE AFTER LIE. NOT IN THIS COUNTRY NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT.
