SafeCare Software Reviews 

Cancellation is a nightmare! Charge for PCTuneUp Pro is $21.97 PER MONTH. They promise .99 per month if you ask to cancel. They have numerous company names and many phone numbers. They state they can only cancel by phone request; cancellation emails were promised but not sent until three phone calls. From their email:

BUYER BEWARE............

After seeing that the driver updates from this "company" didn't work, I turned around the first day to cancel the subscription that was supposed to have been a one time charge for a year. However they sent an email informing me that a monthly charge would be coming out of my checking account within two days. I had to call my bank and cancel the debit card to prevent a charge that I never authorized or agreed to... buyer beware... THIS IS A SCAM! DON'T RESPOND TO ANY EMAILS FOR PAYMENT MANAGEMENT, CALL YOUR BANK OR STOP PAYMENT THROUGH PAY PAL!

Very very dodgy.
Twice advised them in response to their renewal reminder that I did not want to renew my PC Tune up Pro subscription and twice they confirmed that was OK.

Today I received email from Fastspring.com, headed Safecaresoftware Support stating

your payment for subscription to "PCTuneUp PRO" (£18.99) failed.
Please sign in to update your payment details and avoid subscription cancellation. Your subscription will be automatically cancelled 18/07/2022.

Fortunately I had previously closed my Paypal account to prevent these odd subscription renewals.
Until recently I had not realised these dodgy companies were able to auto renew via Paypal, without my knowledge.
Beware!!

Disguising the subscription portion of this software is despicable and shame on me for not reading the fine print, don't be fooled there are several other legit companies with good software that won't screw you.

I 'discovered' I was being billed for PC TuneUp Pro. It was suggested I purchased it via PayPal. I have never purchased ANY PC software, in my life. I only use 'Free ware'. I was immediately refunded the last £18.99 BUT NOT THE PREVIOUS! I only received this last notification from PayPal, nothing previously. I am pursuing the matter with payPal AND with FastSpring Ltd! Aged 83 BUT I do not make mistakes over purchases.

On very short acquaintance, I found SafeCare PCTuneUp PRO to be simple to install, fast in operation, comprehensive in coverage and quite user friendly, particularly with advice on removal or retention of StartUp programs. However, like Andrew (24 Mar 2021) and Richard Wilshire (10 Mar 2021), I mistakenly bought this software assuming the advertised price of $19.99 was one-time. It turned out the actual price was $31.99 AUD and, in tiny print on the payment invoice, was to be charged monthly. Silly me! However, "obscuring" the fact of monthly payment is not a good look for SafeCare Software. To their credit, SafeCare promptly cancelled my subscription and refunded the first monthly payment when I complained. So their "after the event" behaviour was quite ethical. SafeCare also offers personalised on-line support for the client PC, starting with an initial full review of operations.

I bought this software thinking it was a one-off payment and didn't realise that it was in fact a monthly payment. I am usually cautious about such things but still got caught out. The actual software does the job but not in the way I expected.

I bought PC cleaning software from this company. Price was $19.99 I presumed this was for a year - but later noticed that it was only for a month. After checking found that my credit card would be debited monthly - this wasn't made clear at time of the initial purchase.
I have been unable to contacted the vendor about cancelling the software. I can't find where to contact them about cancelling.
Buyer beware.

I contacted the vendor about cancelling the software and received an automated reply asking me would I like to keep the software for 99cents a month - of course I agreed to this, however I received no further information about the reduced price - also didn't show up in my "Account' info. I cancelled again and cancellation was accepted straight away - this I am grateful for, money was also returned without any problems.
Buyer beware.
