How do I prove that I cancelled Bitdefender?
Keep central renewal status, confirmation email, subscription expiration date, verifone confirmation if used. Save copies outside the company’s app or account in case access disappears. Your proof should show the request date, effective date, affected service, and confirmation or reference number.
What should I do if Bitdefender keeps charging me?
Compare the new charge with the effective date on your confirmation. Then contact Bitdefender with a short timeline showing the request, confirmation, promised end date, and charge. Ask for a written correction and any refund due. If that goes nowhere, send the same records to your payment provider and ask how long you have to dispute the charge.
