~Sue Em's review of Microsoft - Tech Support customer service

GetHuman: So how would you sum up your experience for GetHuman's Microsoft - Tech Support 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.
~Sue Em: After removing mcafee I could no longer go on the internet. Called mircosoft and they told me to call mcafee. They gave me a number. Those techs worked on my computer THREE hours and when they supposedly found the problem they said they could only install it if I bought their anti-virus protection. I declined. Turns out they had connected me with IYOGI instead of mcafee. What a scam - you ask for tech support and end up listening to a sales pitch for malware programs. Afterwards I fixed the problem myself (which wasn't that hard)
