Avanquest - Unauthorized payment

On February 21, Avanquest took $49.21 from my debit card. I have no idea who Avanquest is and don't want to know who they are.

I want my money returned to my debit card ending in 6381 ASAP, or I will have my lawyer file a lawsuit ASAP. I don't know who sold you my information, but they too will be sued if my money isn't returned to my account ASAP.

I purchased your

678**** Canada Inc software for updating my drivers. There were so many pop ups, and redirects when I opened the software.

I tried using it but to no avail. It just doesn't work with my os. I'd like a complete refund of my $55.98 please. I don't want to have to go outside.

I'd rather deal directyl with you. But if I have to I will.

Please send me an email to *** confirming that my money has been refunded. I purchased through paypal.

Transaction number ***.Visa debit card ending in VISA Debit Card x-5578. Let's just take care of this and prevent me from going to the fraud department of my bank

User's recommendation: be carefull with this company. I plays like a scam, constant popups asking you to upgrade etc. I would look somewhere else

Never received paid for software disk

  • - Paid for print artist gold software; only download arrived.

Avanquest - Never received paid for software disk

Paid for print artist gold software on 7 December 2024 and received only download part. I paid for the download plus a copy on an actual disk but have never received the disk.

I realize it had to come from *** to *** but I think 3 months is just a ridiculous wait and I still haven't received it. I have tried contacting them 4 times now - one only reply telling me to contact another department which I did, but have not had one reply from them. I would not recommend buying directly from this company to my worst enemy.

Online buyers beware! Do Not buy directly from this company

User's recommendation: Do not buy directly from this company

Software question

I was charged two times for two different amounts from this company, and I do not know why because I did not order anything from them. All of their phone lines go immediately to a busy signal, so I cannot get in touch with them. I need answers!

Original review Apr 19, 2026

I wanted to buy Acrobat reader. Consultant was very pushy to access my computer.

When he finished I got a bill for $174, for a full suite of software I did not want.

When I rang, the operator had very poor English. I explained that I wanted a part refund, difference between Acrobat reader and the other stuff.

This morning I got a bright and breezy email about how wonderful the software is.

I have requested a refund via Paypal butDon't touch them so far no action. Don't go near these turkeys and DON"T let them log into your computer.
