    I have been a customer of ********************** for ** years; however, due to the way I am using the service, I have been on the Free plan because it best meets my needs. As of the last week, I have been logged out of my account and completely unable to log back in. I know my Password, but I receive an error saying my password is incorrect. I've even checked my password hint and can see that I am using the correct password. When I ask for a verification email, nothing is sent to my email address, but I am getting other LastPass emails so I know they have it.Additionally, when I try to access LastPass support, the chatbot gives me articles that have not been helpful. When I ask to speak with an agent, the chatbot tells me that only paying customers can speak with an agent and that I need to login, so that it can see that I am on a plan. Even if I was a paying customer, this process is so incredibly flawed because I can't login either way. What's more, this is feeling like a scam to force people to pay to access their own account and ***********************, knowing that people are desperate to access their information. I have used this company for 10 years with hundreds of passwords on their service, so it feels like I am being targeted because they know I need to use them to access these passwords. This is very frustrating an poor business practice for a password vault. I sincerely just want to access my account, so I can now download my passwords and never use LastPass again -- My concern with just moving on without ever accessing the account is that I don't want to leave all of my passwords on their service, I want my account fully deleted for security purposes. If you can please help, I am at a loss of what to do now.

    I have been unable to log into last pass via Firefox. A login screen appears, but does not allow me to enter my information and then the screen times out and goes blank. To be completely clear, I am a cloud engineer, so my browser, computer and firewall are always up to date. When I tried to reach out to Last Pass, they only appear to provide support for paid subscribers. Are they really telling me they only ensure the stability of their product for pay? When I signed up more than a decade ago, all services were free. Either way, my information is now being held hostage as I can access it. If this isn't extortion, they need to provide technical support, because their product does not appear to be playing well with Firefox.

    This is a most frustrating and vexing situation. I have been a user of ********************** for several years and I can no longer log into LastPass, though I have tried every one of the supposed fixes contained within the support pages. I CANNOT LOG IN because it directs me to check an email address that I know longer have access to, and it has been defunct for many years. I have tried to work through all of the supposed fixes LastPass has sent me, but since I cannot log in, none of them work. I began wanting to fix this so I could again use Lastpass, but now I intend to cancel my Lastpass account, but I am unable to cancel it without being able to log in. It is an infinite loop that goes nowhere. I DO NOT WANT TO BE CHARGED AGAIN FOR A PRODUCT I CANNOT ACCESS. I want someone to call me or respond to my many emails with a sensible correction to this mess your software has created for me. Dr ******* *****

Please add your rejection comments below; if you do not provide any details, your complaint will be closed as Answered. 

    I have to point out, that Lastpass told me via email they were going to call me, and then sent me a message that they had tried to call me 3 times without me picking up. And, I never got a phone call, no one left any vm messages, and because it was to my cell phone, I did not have any record of missed calls. I do not believe LastPass ever attempted to call me at all, and any email I sent to them telling them I was available with my phone ready to take incoming calls (calls not blocked from unknown numbers), was met with no response. LastPass also never acknowledged my emails and wrote me emails "answering" but without addressing my issues. My goal with LastPass all along was to be able to log on once more to my account with over *************************** to ensure I could wipe my account, and delete it so I would know the data would not leak, and so I would not be charged again. LastPass's final email was dated January 14th and i reproduce it below completely:  

    "dr dr(sic) ******* *****, Your plan has been successfully cancel (sic) now so no unwanted charges will be performed in the future. Your plan will remain active until Feb 26, 2025. Please in the case you would like to get more assistance to be able to get back into your account, feel free to reach us back and refer to the case#: ******** or reply to this email.
    Hoping this information is helpful for you. 
    This case will now be closed.
    Please let us know if you need further assistance. 
    ***, The LastPass Support Team

    I responded to that email immediately with no further response. It seems to me their support system is set up to appear as if they are going to be helpful, but they merely want to close the case without concern for my needs as a consumer. I am still at a loss to know whether my account has been expunged or not. I still do not know if I can trust that my data is safe or was safely expunged. And of course, my main concern about logging on again was never addressed. Again this whole situation has been the worst "support" I have ever experienced. I do appreciate that the BBB's portal allowed me to complain to someone, though LastPass did seem to sidestep the actual complaint itself.

    I used their free Last Pass, password saver program. All was well and then it would NOT actually give me an open screens. It gives a blank screen with their name only. I cant use that at all. But it will open all my secret passwords and put them in the screens where I do not want them opened. In essence, I am NOT ALLOWED to close this ************ populates passwords when I do not want them. I tried to reboot and it will not close. Support has not contacted me. I am worried that my passwords may be exposed and I cant control this software. I need someone at Last Pass to fix this matter asap.

    On 11/23/24 I discovered my LastPass had been compromised. Someone had added a FICO2 key to my account and given themselves offline access. Even with changing my masterpassword and settings this person still had access. I filed for a phone call to try and fix the issue. No one called me. I had to delete my account and all my information and am now having to change all my passwords on pertinent accounts. I received an email finally after hours (I asked for a phone call).

    I am paying Lastpass to store all my passwords. Recently I changed phone #'s and more recently I changed my cell phone. But my email with Lastpass has never changed. Which is ************************** I cannot get into Lastpass. I tried reaching out to support but they seem to think I need a password reset. I do not. I know my password. It's the multi-authentication that's causing me trouble. That is tied to my old phone # ************. I no longer have that phone # anymore. Just my new phone # ************. I am a paying premium customer and getting no real help. I need my access. I've asked them to call me but seems doubtful. Maybe you can help me resolve this issue. Thank you

    I have lost my password to this account and need to speak to someone about canceling my service subscription that renews in November. I went to their website and they have no way to contact them except for the app for which I have forgotten the password. I attempted to contact them through a corporate sales account number that I found through an internet search but they were unable to help. All Iwant to do at this point is to cancel my subscription that I have been unable to use because of a forgotten password. Their lack of customer support for those that are locked out of the app for whatever reason is the absolute worst I have experienced. It is a total scam to make it this difficult to access customer support so people are forced to remain customers because they cant access customer support to cancel service. Please help by providing a phone number to this terrible excuse of a company. Thanks in advance, ***** ******

    I signed up for the LastPass service (digital password manager) a few years ago. I found it complicated to use, and so abandoned it. However, I did not cancel my annual subscription at the time (~$50). Subsequently I have been automatically charged the annual subscription fee in 2022 and 2023, as I can see from my credit card records. The auto renewal of this subscription will happen again on Nov. 7, 2024. I want to cancel the subscription prior to that ********* order to cancel, one has to log in, but I am unable to do that. Logging in requires an email and password. Neither of my current 2 email accounts was used to create the LastPass credentials (the website tells me that it does not recognize either of my email accounts). The computer I used at the time had a browser extension installed on it, but that computer has been wiped and surplussed since that time. Without the email address used, the website cannot validate who I am. There is not a phone number to call to speak with a person. The chat assistant on the website is virtual, and can only direct me to log in, which is circular and brings me back to the problem that I cannot log in. Same for the **** about logging in. I have searched the internet, separate from the ************************** website, for a solution. Ultimately, the only way to cancel the subscription is to log in, and the only way to log in is to use the email address used at the time of creating my account. There is not a human that I can speak to in order to validate my account another way.Are you able to help me find a human at Last Pass so that I can cancel my subscription before the auto renewal happens on Nov. 7, 2024?Thanks very much,***** ******* *******, ** ***************************************

    I was a LastPass subscriber; however, I decided I didnt want to continue with subscription that was up fo renewal this year and took steps to export my passwords and then delete the account on *********. On 24Sep2024, I was charged the renewal fee anyway. I attempted to contact company through their website and the information provided was that I would need to create an account again to receive customer service/support. I dont agree that I should be required to create an account again to request a refund. The company offers no phone number for billing issues. I tried calling ************ which directs that all billing matters must use their website (which requires account creation).
