This is indeed very deceiving, one assumes when you buy a lifetime license for software that it is for the software not just on one PC.

I love this little program but will not be buying another license, it is bad enough that my Pc gave up the ghost without AVS adding to my financial burdens especially while not working during the corona lockdown.

I also used to recommend this to a lot of my entertainer friends a few of whom I know purchased it too, I will not be doing that anymore.

Disappointing, underhand and misleading. If you go to their checkout page you will notice that when buying an unlimited license it DOES NOT state it is tied to the machine you install it on and can not be transferred.

I will be replacing all AVS4u software with software from a more reputable company.

If you happen to read this AVS little note for you, read this thread, a lot of your customers feel cheated that is not a good way to run a business. Be more honest!

I understand the need to protect your software from piracy but ripping off your existing customers is not the way to do that, most software including photoshop and the like allow you to reset licenses you own when replacing a computer.

Can you imagine if all software companies were as draconian? Every time a computer was replaced people would be spending thousands.

VERY SILLY!


*******************************
Despite buying THREE "unlimited" licenses in the past the company id plain refusing to unlock any of them. I am a pro entertainer who lost his livelihood completely a few months ago, I have been recording new comedy songs to entertain the public even though I am not being paid to do so. Unlike these thieves I am not all about "Money"

With no income, it was bad enough that my PC died and had to be replaced now they want me to pay for lifetime software again.

I have contacted trading standards regarding their deceit and recommend the hundreds of other people that have been deceived do the same.

BE VERY CLEAR THESE ARE NOT LIFETIME LICENSES IT IS A LIE PURE AND SIMPLE!

*****************************************************
Check below for more evidence. Copied and pasted replies, don't care attitude. Yes we know now that your "Unlimited" license has a VERY severe limit in the small print of your terms and conditions. You just proved your own deceit and dishonesty.

You do NOT have my understanding! I will never understand why any company would deceive and treat paying customers in this way.

Do yourselves a favour people and do not buy from this company!
