A McAfee customer review by GetHuman user ~Ruby from November 3rd, 2017

Background on ~Ruby's case

GetHuman: ~Ruby - can you tell our other McAfee customers when your case took place?
~Ruby: Yes I can. It was morning, on October 27th.
GetHuman: Did you reach out to McAfee, and if so, how?
~Ruby: I used the 866-622-3911 number I found for on the GetHuman McAfee customer phone number page I was on: McAfee Customer Service Phone Number
GetHuman: And which of these common McAfee customer issues best describes the reason you wanted to talk to them?

~Ruby's review of McAfee customer service

GetHuman: So how would you sum up your experience for GetHuman's McAfee customer community? We'll censor any IDs, numbers, or codes and any inappropriate words here out of respect to the millions of other customers using this resource.
~Ruby: McAfee anti virus protection does not work and you are throwing away your money for this product. My computer had a virus and Mcafee never detected it. When I called I was told I had to purchase an addition package for $**.** to get rid of the virus. What is the point of having McAfee protection when it doesn't work and then they charge extra to fix what they were being paid to protect and didn't. Do not use McAfee if you want to have peace of mind and avoid a virus and extra charge.
GetHuman: Let's quantify your experience contacting McAfee. On a scale of 1 to 5, how easy is it go get help on a McAfee problem?
~Ruby: I'd give them a three out of five for ease of finding your way to help.
GetHuman: What about quality of communication. How would you rate that on a 1 to 5 scale?
~Ruby: I'd give them a five out of five on communication.
GetHuman: And what about McAfee's ability to quickly and effectively address your problem?
~Ruby: For that I would say five out of five.
GetHuman: And finally- any advice for other McAfee customers?
~Ruby: Call them early in the day or late. Don't forget any personal or account information you might need for McAfee to know who you are.
GetHuman: Well there you have it. Some useful feedback and words from ~Ruby taken from his McAfee customer service problem that occurred on October 27th, 2017.
