    I am rejecting this response because: it is unfair and unjust to charge me a whole year. They did not provide proper notification. They make it difficult to cancel. I canceled within the period.

    Tried to cancel my account after years of service. They had a second account that they locked you out of and you would only need to cancel. I needed hours online with support to make this account and was unable to meet a month before hand canceling because of their inability to help me.

    1/28/2025 I installed TeamViewer software onto my computer and somehow ended up registered under their trial period by way of installing the software onto my computer. I have used TeamViewer before to log into my friends computers and show them how to fix certain issues and this had never been a problem. On 2/28/2025 I received an invoice for $610 for a one year business license subscription. I immediately called and asked to cancel as I had not yet paid but was told that cannot happen over the phone so I emailed in an created a support ticket. TeamViewer says there is nothing they can do to cancel the invoice (even though I havent paid, never received a contract, didnt use the software during the trial period and havent used it at all since they have tried to bill me for a year) - I didnt even realize I had signed up for a business trial and had ZERO contact from TeamViewer between 1/28/25 and 2/28/25. I feel deceived and myself as well as many other on the internet (do a quick search) feel that TeamViewer deliberately makes this a vague process that is difficult to cancel to try and force a year subscription that cannot be cancelled. I dont want it, I wont use it, I have paid for it yet - so why would they be allowed to force this on me and threaten collections?-Tatton

    Good morning,we are Alpha Immobiliare,we made a subscription with Teamviewer from November 2023 to November 2024.We tried to cancel our subscription before november 2024 but it was more difficult to cancel as it was to make the subscription (in opposition to the "click to cancel" policy), so our colleague (which had her personal email as method to be contacted from TeamViewer and that doesn't work with us anymore) decided to sent a written letter to the Team Viewer office in order to cancel the subscription.We never received confirmation about the cancellation of the subscription, but they sent a new invoice for the new period (november 2024 - november 2025). They also claimed that they sent a written letter to us that we never received at our studio, as our local post office can confirm. Also, our credit card we used as payment method in 2023 expired and we did not expect any automatic renewal of any subscription, so we still did not pay for it on november 2024.They are now contacting us from debt collection company asking for the subscription fee, plus the debt collection company fee (after 3 months?), since, they say, we did not ask to cancel in time ( 28 days before the ending of the subscription which was november 2024), saying that they did not receive any letter and that we should have tried to cancel using their ticket system on their website, which was indeed far more difficult to manage that it was when we decided to subscribe in 2023.We looked up online and found a lot of similar cases related to their unfair 28 days in advance renewal policy and the difficulties in requesting the cancellation through their website and we are sure this is a predatory behaviour.We ask for assistance to this matter since they already appointed a debt collection company and we are not being able to explain to them that we sent the physical letter to their office. We know they have an office in ***** so we are contacting you to help with the matter.Thanks

    I am rejecting this response because: this is more a request of better clarification from you: we understand that the future renewals have been terminated by you as we already requested also by sending a written letters to your company in *** and *******. The question is, does this also apply to the renewal already being done few months ago (after we sent the request of cancellation by written letters), for which you asked the company CREDITREFORM to collect the money from us (invoice *********) including the debt collection fees, as per pdf attachment?

    2/27/2025: TeamViewer Auto Renewal Scam: Difficult cancel, & predatory renewal practices documented by many customers.I was a customer of ********************** for 6 years. Due to a business closure I needed to cancel. I was not able to login to my customer account as the billing is separate from the product portal where the product is. I spent days trying to access this other area, which required an entirely separate email and password.After finally logging in, I canceled the service weeks prior to the renewal date received email confirmation. I was then told that I was locked into a full year of service because I had not provided notice a full month before the renewal date. I contacted customer service. I do not want this product, I am not using the product, and was not aware of this requirement. What is the point of telling me the renewal date when the real cutoff is a month before it? They never sent me the real date that I would need to cancel by. They refused this request on 2/27/2025. I explained that they do not have consent to bill me for a product that will not be used. On 2/27/2025 I provided a revocation of credit card authorization notice to the same customer support email. On 2/27/2025 I spoke to ********** regarding my formal revocation of authorization notice to TeamViewer should they attempt to charge my card in 2025.Upon researching my issue, I've found hundreds of other cases complaining of this same predatory practice. I wish I had found these earlier:The Florida office ****** reviews repeat my same story ad nauseum, found here: ***************************************** SiteJabber has over 100 one-star reviews regarding the same renewal policies: hhttps://************************************************************************************************* Same renewal policy complaints at and one-star rating at **************************************************************** This policy should be revoked. For a relatively happy customer of 6 years, it has soured my experience with the company forever.

    Complaint: 22998949

    I am rejecting this response because in the previous message you said all future renewals have been canceled. Are you now saying that future renewal does not include the specific 2025 renewal that started this complaint? That is the only renewal I am contesting.

    Id like to reiterate the deceptive practice of providing me a renewal date in all your correspondence when that date is actually far past the date I need to decide by.

    There was never any correspondence that said please decide by February 6th, only the renewal date of March 6th. If you are really committed to transparency and making it clear to your clients the terms of the agreement, youd actually send us the real date that we need to decide by. 

    Given the many hundreds of complaints about this specific practice Ive found, you must realize by now this is a common problem that is repeatedly hurting your brands reputation.

    Please do the right thing and honor our 6 years of business by not forcing me to pay for a product I do not need or want. I am under the burden of closing my business in difficult economic times, and this process is exhausting.

    I removed TeamViewer from my computer, canceled our online account, and removed by billing information on or around March 23, 2024 after having office computers hacked. The computer security technician that worked on our computers indicated that TeamViewer was a possible route that was used by the hackers, and that is why we removed TeamViewer immediately.We received notice in May 2024 that our account was suspended due to non-payment, which we did not find an issue with since we believed that we closed our account and were no longer using it. Months later I found an assortment of emails in my Spam folder of collection notices from "ABC Collections Team" telling me that I owe $298.80 for a year of service from April 2024 to April 2025, which I did not use and which TeamViewer said was suspended service. How can you charge someone for suspended service? If there's no service, there should be no charge.I would like this issue resolved by removing this charge from my account and stopping the bill collection for service that was suspended. The document indicating suspended service is attached for your records.

    I am writing to formally dispute the charge of US$2,253.60 on invoice #********* which was automatically renewed on Jan ******* without my authorization. I am requesting a cancellation of this invoice due to the following reasons:1. Lack of ***************************************** failed to provide clear and conspicuous disclosure of the auto-renewal terms before I agreed to the subscription. The auto-renewal policy was not clearly presented during the checkout process or within the TeamViewer dashboard. Instead, the only mention of auto-renewal was buried in the invoice and the ****, which violates Californias Automatic Renewal Law ***** Bus. & Prof. **** *****, et seq.).2. Failure to Send Proper Renewal Notice Under California law, businesses must send a renewal reminder at least 30 days before an annual subscription renews. I did not receive any such notice. If I had, I would have taken immediate action to cancel.3. No Option to Cancel Easily The **** Negative Option Rule requires companies to provide a simple and accessible cancellation method. However, TeamViewer does not allow users to manage auto-renewal directly from their account dashboard. Instead, it requires customers to open a support ticket, creating an unnecessary barrier to cancellation.We contacted TeamViewer via phone call and e-mail but they refused to void/cancel the invoice. We are not using the service and do not wish to continue with it.

    I had signed up for a free 30 trial to TeamViewer in January 15th, 2025. I read that I could cancel my trial subscription 1 day before the period ends which would have been February 14. However, when I went to their site, to cancel, it does not allow you to. It wants you to confirm payment. I did not want to and it charged my bank account anyway. I did not want the subscription. The fact that they did not make it obvious or even easy to cancel or even provide a 2 day warning about the trial period ending seems a little bit like running a scam or fraud. I want my money back that they took from my account without my willing consent since they did not allow an appropriate way to cancel what I did not want. TeamViewer should by now after all the complaints filed against them change their practices and be more transparent and honest with their customer dealings and not try to play games with the trial period and cancelation. Telling a customer they are charging the account moments before they charge seems to be an underhanded move. They don't even make it easy to get support to solve these kinds of issues.

    There is no attempt to come to a resolution.  It is an all or nothing.  The product is not what I need but forced to pay for a full year anyway.  The on reminder went in my trash box and never saw it.  I will get resolution by another way and will not recommend TeamViewer to anyone in my network.

    Rather than trying to solve the dissatisfaction they prefer to alienate and make a customer angry.

    I received an auto-renewal email with an attached invoice on 1/30/25 for the subscription billing period of 1/31/25 - 1/30/26 for the total of $1,221.76. There was no reminder that the account was set to renew.Prior to paying the invoice, I contacted TeamViewer support on 2/1/25 to learn about the license downgrade options due to its under utilization in my **************** Business for FY 2024; I anticipated a larger client base than I unfortunately got. TeamViewer did not respond until 2/4/25; I learned that the request was sent to a Licensing Specialist and that I would hear back within 3-5 days. I never heard back. On 2/5/25, I received an email that the card they tried to process for my invoice was expired; I did not want to pay the invoice until I heard back about downgrade options from the Licensing Specialist.I reached out again on 2/10/25 to learn that my ticket was closed after I had received NO contact from the Specialist. I submitted another ticket on 2/13/25 to explain how I submitted a ticket and never heard back. Today, on 2/14/25, I was contacted by ******* *., a Customer Support Specialist, NOT License Specialist, that my account was automatically renewed and that TeamViewer's policy is one that I had to notify them of downgrading or canceling 28 days prior to renewal. I expressed my desire to cancel and for the representative to explain the refund process (even though I am not "out" any money because the credit card on file was not charged due to its expiration). ******* mentioned additional fees or collection process if I did not pay the invoice. I requested that the account be canceled. I will pay a portion of the $1,221.76 for the few weeks of its licensed time in 2025, but refuse to pay the full invoice without planning or wanting to use it for the remainder of the year. I am a small business owner struggling to stay afloat. Big tech companies should be helping the little guys, not hurting them.

    I am rejecting this response because:

    I did not receive any email(s) from the business of the costs before renewal time. The only notice I received was on 11/26/24 that my payment of $0.00 was received (attached). I was not informed of the costs at renewal, January 31, 2025. Further, the business did not acknowledge their support agents' lack of response to submitted inquiries which could have lead to a faster resolution. I was assured that a licensing specialist would contact with me within 3-5 days and I never heard from anyone until I had to reach back out again. Support agent claims that "Reminders for renewal were dispatched on the following dates: 12/4/2024 and 12/29/2024" The messages sent on these days were blank, so can the business explain how these are meaningful and transparent messages? The two emails are attached. No subject. No content.

    As I mentioned, I am willing to pay for the partial usage, but refuse to pay the full year. This is a money grab and easily cancelable by the business. I do not want access to the platform for the remainder of the year because I want nothing to do with a company that operates this way: that ***** on customers who they even deem "loyal". The account can be disabled and my access therefore denied. There is no need to keep this account active. This is a reasonable request. If I had tangible goods that were difficult to process returns for, I would understand. This is easily cancelable. The company has offered a 20% discount. If they can offer a discount for "loyalty" they should be able to honor the cancelation.

    Sincerely,

    ***** *********

We are continuing to improve our process to make it more transparent. We also hope that our customers can educate themselves on our terms and read our invoices that we provide.
    All your future renewals have indeed been terminated by TeamViewer.

    They have a scam where they let people use anyone's name or information. I contacted them saying I was not sure how I would log on their account for canceling their free trial. I send them multiple emails and messages on their site and even tried calling them. They would not answer the phone or email. I was not able to cancel a free trial. Then when they reply they say it was already after the free trial. I told them I never gave them money and I did not use their service so I did not want their service. I am not using this service. I have tried requesting they remove my email and my information. This is not a valid purchase. I did not sign any contract with them. They have some hidden terms of agreement on their site that says people who do free trials must cancel 28 days before they get billed yet during the 7 day free trial they do not reply and there is not self service of canceling so you must contact then and they take over 7 days to reply and then when you do not pay they put their collections creditreform on for harassing you. I do not have their program on my computer and I am not interested in using this service. I told them cease and desist your collection efforts this is not my debt and not my purchase. They keep harassing me. The problem is with Teamviewer and they are using Creditreform with their scam. I tried filing a compliant with the ************************************. If a card is closed that was used on a free trial it is because the person does not want the product. Free trials that can not get properly canceled and then automatically convert on collections with a foreign company seems like a desperate scam. Please have them refund this issue. They are not being ethical and refuse replying with my emails now.

    I am rejecting this response because:

    It is deceptive and I did message them right away and they did not respond. 

    So they get you on a free trial yet lock you out your account and I did message them telling them cancel yet they say they could not find my account.

    Free trials that later charge you money are not free so that is false advertising. 

    There was never money that transferred with them so the contract never started cuz I was not aware of that contract they hid.

    You can not trick someone in a contract. 

    Many people complain about these deceptive business practices they have done. 

    I was not using their product and could not log on to cancel and messaged them cancel.

    Sincerely,
