    Submitted a ticket long before the 28 days, but the ticket disappeared... No trace of it - only the email I received at the time of making the ticket, which apparently is not proof.

    So I cancelled the credit card - and they sent me to collections.

    Very unethical business !!

    Paid the account today since it was affecting my credit.

    Have 3 tickets in now - all asking to cancel the account.

    I got a call from a representative of Teamviewer asking me about my renewal while I was overseas. I told her to call me back as I would like to reduce the number of license from my subscription. There was no callback and I got an invoice

    I submitted a ticket to ask them to allow me to reduce the number of license and I got answers from the support that this is not allowed unless we give them at least 28days before the expiry date of our current contract

    They told me they have no records of anyone calling and changing of subscription is not allowed.

    Gave me all their terms and rules

    I asked to speak to someone to explain but I only got standard answers from support.

    Has anyone faced the same issues as me?

    I have asked them to cancel the auto renewal.

  • Over the past few months, I have asked Teamviewer support on how to cancel our subscription. All I get told is that we must submit the request in writing. I consider creating a support ticket to cancel the subscription as a written notification, but nothing has happened. I have asked what email address or mailing address to send the notification to but have been told that a licensing team member will contact me, but that has not happened either.

    I am certainly sorry we got involved with Teamview and am actively recommending to my peers that they avoid their subscription service.

    I'll ask the question here. How do we cancel our subscription? Please advise.

  • I want to cancel Team viewer also. I cannot activate it I have paid for 2 years and third payment is due. I cannot get a reply and I cannot cancel because I cannot produce a ticket because I never received the activation email.

    I have emailed so many times and I have been totally ignored What can I do?

    Hi,

    I have already paid for my license but still getting payment due notices to pay for another invoice, not sure why I am being asked to pay for 2 licenses to access a single remote laptop. I have also raised a support ticket but no response so far, my ticket number is [removed per Community Guidelines]. Could you please help me to cancel my other invoice ? Thanks.

    Oh my goodness what a complete shambles. I feel like I've been robbed. I now have two subscriptions to teamviewer. I thought I have cancelled one but was too late, apparently. I then took an upgraded version. They will not refund me and have listened to what I had to say but keep referring back to their 'policy'. I really want my money back. Has anyone been successful is getting a refund? Any help appreciated.

    I no longer use the product, but today noticed a large withdrawal from my account to yourselves


    i did not know that the product auto renews, im currently two days into a year license which i havent and will not be activating.


    ive spoke directly with customer support and im being advised that i cannot cancel although im only two days into the renew of a product i dont require a license for.


    can i ask is this legit the case i cannot cancel, if so i find incredibly anti consumer of your company when the usual situations in these cases is that on a month you would 7 days on a year 28 to return a product.

    its alot of money in the current times for something im not using and my business is not trading

    Hi Ying


    I already have a ticket open but it has yet to have a response


    This is my current reply:


    Hi support


    No this has not been resolved.


    I had not authorised a further year subscription to your services. my business has currently stopped trading and is very unlikely to continue in the future.


     

    in short I have no use whatsoever for this further year subscription. and therefore would like a full refund.


    This request was first requested on the 14/09/2022 which was 2 days into the new subscription start date.


    I contacted over the phone the support team to be told that a refund of this is not possible at all.


    I find this stance very un supportive of your clients in general.


    But more so i request here again for a full refund based on the following reasons.


    I never received any communication before this was renewed, giving me no oppertunity to object


    The fact i received no communication also means i never authorised a further charge to be taken from my account.


    Even if i still had a use for the product the price increase from the previous year was not communicated and i also didnt authrosiude this higher amount to be debited from my account.


    I hardly used the last year subscription at all, as you would be able to see from your internal systems


    and as my business is not trading i have zero use for your product and would not of renewed under any circumstance


    Can you please refund this charge, i have not activated the license nor is the license fit for any purpose of my business.



    If there is any fee for administration reasons then i understand this would need to be settled.


    But could you please refund the charge based on the above, and the fact i had raised this request only 2 days into the new contract.


    Kind Regards

    For anyone else in this position, its saddening how poor that TeamViewer treat people imo



    Hello Ben, 


    Thank you for your email. 


    TeamViewer publishes the terms of the subscription within our End User License Agreement (EULA). These terms are made available to you when purchasing a subscription and you are required to accept the terms of the EULA when installing the TeamViewer software. 

    We also include key terms, regarding the subscription and termination, on each invoice that we issue.

    Finally, I can see that we sent you a renewal reminder on 16th of July, 11th and 12th of August 2022. This reminder is deliberately sent well in advance of the renewal to give you ample time to terminate the subscription if you wish. We feel that TeamViewer has done everything it can to make the terms of the subscription available. 


    I can confirm that license has been terminated for the next year and will not renew on 12th of September 2023, however the refund will not be proceeded for this year. 


    Should you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to contact us again. 


    Best regards,


    Klaudia 


    Customer Support Specialist



    Hi Support


    Still not satisfied with this resolution


    Can you provide your complaints procedure.


    I did not receive your emails. 


    I check my email inbox daily and would of seen this.


    I did not authorise this payment and resubscription in any shape or form nor the additional cost compared to the previous yearI did not authorise this payment. 


    So i do not believe you have kept to your own terms of your EULA


    At no point have you had any communication from me regarding renewal


    You don't make it easy cancel and i believe i as consumer in the UK have a cooling off period regardless of 14 days of which i have raised this matter.


    I will be speaking to my card issuer and supplying all relevant information regarding this and will still be looking to recover funds.


    Kind Regards

    Ben

    Glad I am not alone.


    I just had a very unpleasure experience with the "Senior" Customer service representative named, Noel on cancellation of my subscription.

    First he told me that my invoice has already started today, on 09/21/22, which is incorrect.

    Secondly, he told me two reminder emails from teamviewers has been sent to me before to remind me about canceling the service before 28 days of expiration of my current invoice. I check my email inbox and spam folder. I have never received those emails.

    I shouldn't be relying on teamviewer's reminder email to cancel my service. Please beware of your renewal notice from teamviewer.

    The service I receive from teamviewer has never been pleasant. From collection service resulted from their uncorrected invoice system before and now this never received renewal notice and a terrible and unsympathetic and unprofessional customer service representative who put a nail in the coffin for my view of this company.

    I guess I will need to dispute it with my Amex credit card. It is very nice of doing business with you and thanks for the "excellent" customer service you provided.

    When I signed up with TeamViewer I didn't know anything about their predatory and unethical customer service practices. So they got me, I tried to cancel my renewal 3 days before the period end date (perfectly fine for most web services) and they basically said too bad, pay up. Pointing out the fact I clearly didn't need the service because I don't use it very often and the fact I was trying to cancel prior to the renewal date is totally irrelevant to TeamViewer because well you should have read the fine print and they have a legal right to bill whether I need the service or not. The product is adequate, but I don't want to install remote access software from a company I absolutely don't trust. Any suggestions (other than I should have read the fine print, I know, I know, the scam worked from a legal perspective)? And by the way, people that suffer through hard drive encryption scams shouldn't have opened the email, right, but that doesn't change the fact it's a scam. TeamViewer is forcing unwanted renewals because they can.

    Hi @js2376,

    We are sorry that you landed in TeamViewer Community with frustration.

    TeamViewer does require the cancellation request in written form to be submitted 28 days prior the renewal date. Shall you have more questions, we strongly advise you to contact TeamViewer Support Team for further communication.

    Thank you for your understanding!

    Of course I did that first. The frustration is that TeamViewer customer service is running a scam. They are tricking people into renewals they don't want. No similar service has a 28 day notice. This is a dirty trick to increase renewals. It's that simple.

  • TeamViewer's subscription system is beyond unethical and dabbling in illegal.

    1. They warn you one day ahead of the deadline that your subscription is going to renew. It looks like it is a month away but TeamViewer has made up this fictitious self-serving rule that has absolutely no justification that they need NOTICE to cancel. Notice it cancel a digital subscription. It's laughable.
    2. They take your credit card information and make it so that you can't delete your card to prevent them from charging your card for this unwanted subscription
    3. If you end your subscription before the renewal date, but not 27 days before, they just bump the subscription end date to the following year so that they can march on charging your credit card.

    I have never ever seen anything as unethical as what TeamViewer is doing. How they get away with it is beyond me but I am going to fight them like they have never seen before if I can't get my subscription canceled. I'm currently 2 days from renewal and on the phone with my credit card company to see if I can get them blocked.

    I canceled my subscription as required 8-9 months ago when I got back from deployment from Iraq. I haven't used it since. Now I'm being forced to pay $500 that I don't have on a product I don't use. Cancel this account. This is my notification way in advance. 

    To ensure TeamViewer doesn't **bleep** me over again with their predatory business practices I will have to (1) get my money's worth by ensuring that there are plenty of digital records of me wanting to close my account and (2) attempt to educate others on your business practices.

    Hello @shylow,

    I am sorry to hear that you had a bad experience regarding your contract termination.

    You must have received a confirmation e-mail 9 months ago when you canceled your subscription.

    You need to show this confirmation to our customer support, and they'll be able to help.

    Contact Customer Support

  • I requested a refund the day after my credit card was charged. It's been 9 days, I've called 3 times and everyone just tells me it's "processing"...whatever that is supposed to mean. I'll file a dispute with my credit card issuer if I don't have a refund or at least a solid answer by tomorrow. Don't say you have a 7-Day refund policy if you won't honor it. I understand it's frustrating to have to process so many...but don't put that claim on your website.

    I have been a loyal Team Viewer Customer for almost 3 years now. I own a small CPA firm. Just 6 people. Now fighting their AR and Private collectors threatening me personally, to ding my credit, and my small business corporate credit.

    Signed up with a Team Viewer Corporate License in 2020. Paid [removed per Community Guidelines] per year for 2 years of the license. The Corporates license runs out in March 2022. Loving Teamvwier's products, but not needed 3 users for a Corporate license, I click the purchase license button in the same user I have used all 3 years, buy the Business license to step down, or what I thought was stepping down, paying [removed per Community Guidelines] in April 2022.

    Then a month ago, one of Team Viewers Private collectors starts calling me and my company. They want their [removed per Community Guidelines] for the FY March 2023 Corporate license. I tell them I stepped down. Submitted Ticket to support. Also called.

    All i get is nothing i can do, i need to pay. That does not matter if i clicked their license button for a Business license, purchased, i still owe for Corporate on top even though i have not used. My user being tied to the Business License since April 2022.

    They terminating the Corporate license, not sure when, but at least have a screen shot of at least October of 2022, with the period not being up, and they still want their [removed per Community Guidelines]...

    TeamViewer has such great technology, but their AR and Collection department are insane. They are screwing their users.

    Have a disconnect from reality and fair business practices.

    I filed complaints with BBB and Department of Consumer Affairs', not having much hope that anything will be done, but to start the documentation process, when they ding my personal credit, or business credit, going to file fair credit reporting act.

    Seems to be the only thing that will get their attention.

    Long story short, not posting this to complain, maybe a little, but warn users, watch out, call them if you want to cancel, or step down, else they will screw you. Logic does not matter to their AR or collectors, only that nothing they can do, pay up, else we will destroy your credit.

    Its wrong, and as much as i like their product, will never do business with them again.

  • Been a month of doing the support tickets and private collection agencies threatening credit reporting against me/company. Calls with your AR department. there are other posts like mine, just searching this forum. The auto renew, 28 day is preditory, IMO against the law in the US/California, some other posts citing case law. For one month, have just been told no, even though i clicked the button purchase license, have a valid Business license, that started when the March 2022 Corporate license ended, but you AR and collections department does not recognize that. I was told I had to have called. Looking at your forum others have said you have to write in. This is my experience, filed my BBB and Department of Consumer Affairs complaints, just trying to document, when the credit ding comes on personal or Corprate credit, to file a fair credit reporting act claim. Your license agreement stating something, burried on page 1000 whatever, no one will ever get to read. It does not make it legal based on federal or California. Also, its is just bad business practice, for a company that has such great software, its AR department is insane.

    I've been forced to pay for a service/product I won't be using for the next year because of this company's predatory policy.

    I had thought I canceled this service after I returned from Iraq. I know I had put in the ticket. Fast forward 8-9 months and out of the blue I start getting payment notices - pay up or else. I'm told that there was an email reminder (a single reminder) sent the 24 hours prior to the "28 day" requirement, but I didn't see it. Probably went to spam which Google Gmail will be nice and delete after 30 days.

    Of course the company insisted I pay - or else.

    So - The only way for me to get my money's worth is to ensure that no one else falls into this trap as well. Very few businesses will force you to pay for a service you don't want or can't use. This is because people like me will basically warn other people off their company for these underhanded practices. Additionally, I'm employed in a mid-to-high position in our military. Anyone comes asking me (and they do) about this company's solutions or products or service, I'm naturally going to tell them about this bad experience. I figure that if my experience can steer a customer or two away from this company, then I will have done the public a service. Which is why these policies are stupid - in the end this policy will cost more business than it will get in money from **bleep** customer. I certainly won't be a repeat customer.

    Make sure your account is canceled. Make sure you retain proof. Not just a ticket submitted email - but something that declares your account canceled. Do not trust this company.

    I am stunned at how many people have had issues with cancellation of subscriptions.

    I had the same issue with receiving bills, Ended up with Debt Collection chasing me. The staff member I spoke to a few days ago admitted their automated system often is blocked by bigpond if you have a bigpond address. I agree their cancellation process is a joke and almost a scam in a way it gets another year out of you. I have now finally cancelled my subscription therefore will not receive another subscription for the following year, however I paid the debt collection which cost me an extra on top of original bill.

    I never received the bill, I tried to cancel it the previous year and had nothing but issues.

    I have seen a note somewhere in the community with the ACCC ruling. Give them a call before paying anything, I will never use or recommend Teamviewer to anyone. There are other ones out there. Do your research.

    I have tried to repeatedly cancel my subscription but it sends me around in circles. I even get to a tab that says send support ticket, I click that, it loads a page where I can but then instantly directs me to the forum!! Very annoying and it seems multiple people have had the same issue.

    I want to cancel mu subscription within the 7 days.

    Please can someone help.
