McAfee 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee

McAfee offers a 30-day money-back guarantee on all annual subscription purchases and auto-renewals in the UK. This means if you were charged for a renewal you didn’t want, or if you purchased McAfee and changed your mind, you can get a full refund within 30 days of the charge date.

3 Ways to Get a Refund from McAfee UK

  2. Click My Account then Order History
  3. Find the transaction you want refunded

Visit mcafee.com/support and start a live chat with a McAfee agent. Request a refund in the chat and provide your account email and order number. Live chat is usually faster than email but slower than calling.

How Long Does a McAfee Refund Take?

Once approved, McAfee refunds are credited back to your original payment method (credit or debit card) within 5–10 business days. If you paid via PayPal, the refund returns to your PayPal balance. If you have not received a refund after 10 business days, call your bank or call us at +44-800-066-8910.

McAfee Auto-Renewal Refund — What You Need to Know

McAfee enables auto-renewal by default on all UK annual subscriptions. If you were unexpectedly charged for a renewal, you have 30 days to claim a full refund. After claiming your refund:

  • Ask McAfee to turn off auto-renewal on your account to prevent future unexpected charges
  • You will still have McAfee protection until the end of the subscription period that was refunded
  • Save the refund confirmation email for your records

What If Your Refund Is Declined?

McAfee may decline a refund if: more than 30 days have passed since the charge, the subscription was purchased through a third-party retailer (use that retailer’s refund policy instead), or you have already claimed a refund for the same subscription. If you believe a refund refusal is incorrect, request to speak to a McAfee supervisor or contact your bank to dispute the charge as an unauthorised transaction.
