    Microsoft Assure:


    I subscribe to Microsoft Assure and have done so for quite sometime. Until recently, I could contact the Microsoft "Contact Us" site and be able to chat with a Microsoft Technician who frequently remoted in to my computer and fixed the problem. Then sever months ago, when I went to the "Contact Us" site, the option, the option to 'Chat" was no longer there and I had the options to play message tag with an advisor (who cannot remote into my computer) or to ask the Microsoft "Community" or schedule a phone call-back (I live outside of the US and there is a time issue.) (I have often wondered why I want to ask my questions regarding my Window's operation with neophytes like myself who give their guesses as to what is wrong and what I should do!) Anyway, what are the benefits of Assure if I can't chat with a certified, Microsoft technician?

    :)

    I checked what I think ia my Microsoft account page and nothing there about Microsoft Assure. Does your account list contact details for someone in Australia. If so I would appreciate details.

  3. MICROSOFT ASSURE PLAN - a SCAM???

    Nobody knows the truth. I look at my account online it calls the plan Assure 149 paid one year. under that my office subscription monthly so I assume I am looking at a legitimate billing history from Microsoft I sighed in with my online account to check
    my subscription one site said I didn't have a subscription. I closed it and did the above but which was real and which was a scam. Last month, I called 800 642-7676 I get the Microsoft automated system or so I think; because, it sounds like the Microsoft
    greeting and automated answering branch of choices to get to the proper department. And on my bank statement it lists the phone number saying it is from Washington (abbreviated in small letters "Debit Purchase- Visa Microsoft *ans800-642-7676wa" So everything
    seems to be ok until today when I went online to get remote help to clean my computer and look at the firewall settings and I can't get support because it is not during business hours. That is the first time I have encountered that and writing this reply
    is like shitting a brick the field is not instantaneously responsive and everything is marked as an error which began about half way through typing this comment in. And so am I even on the community site or is this yet another information gathering scam site
    set up by the pirates.

    AND SO IS THE PLAN CALLED AZURE OR ASSURE WHICH ONE IS THE REAL NAME OR ARE THEY TWO MICROSOFT PRODUCTS BECAUSE THE YEAR BEFORE LAST YEAR THE SAME PLAN THAT COST THE SAME AMOUNT WAS CALLED AZURE AND APPEARED ON MY BILLING SUMMARY AS AZURE NOW IT IS ASSURE
    WHAT KIND OF **** IS GOING ON? WHY DO THEY EVEN NEED A CATCH NAME LIKE ASSURE OR AZURE WHY NOT JUST MICROSOFT SOFTWARE PROTECTION PLAN.

    LAST MONTH WHEN I GOT THE ASSURE AZURE WHATEVER PLAN FROM WHOEVER THE TECH CLEANING MY MACHINE TELLS ME THAT THEY ARE GETTING IN USING THIS AKAMAI PROGRAM AND REMOVES IT SAYING THEY USE MY MACHINE AND NAME TO COMIT CRIMES. AND SO NOW I SEE THAT SAME NAME
    AS A FIREWALL EXCEPTION WHEN I WENT IN TO CHECK MY SECURITY SYSTEM. SO I LOOK UP AKAMAI AND FIND THIS:

    Akamai - Content Delivery Network (CDN) & Cloud Computing ...

    https://www.akamai.com
    Akamai is the leading content delivery network (CDN) services provider for media and software delivery, and cloud security solutions

    AND THIS:

    Akamai Technologies -
    Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akamai_Technologies
    Akamai Technologies, Inc. is a content delivery network (CDN) and cloud services provider headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts, in the United States.

    SO DID I BUY A SCAM ASSURE PRODUCT AND DID THE SCAMMERS SET UP A FAKE SITE TO MANAGE MY ASSURE ACCOUNT WITH A FAKE CONTROL PANEL THAT IS DESIGNED LIKE MICROSOFT INSTALLATION INTRODUCTION INSTRUCTIONS WHEN YOU INSTALL A MICROSOFT PRODUCT LIKE OFFICE OR WINDOWS
    10 AND THE BILLING PAGE LOOKS KOSHER TOO BUT IS IT ALL AN ELABORATE SCAM TO COLLECT A MILLION PAYMENTS OF 149 FROM UNSUSPECTING VICTIMS OF CYBER **** ON THEIR COMPUTERS? AND AM I GOING TO BE BANNED FROM THIS FAKE COMMUNITY SUPPORT SITE FOR WRITING THE WORK
    **** NOW THREE OR FOUR TIMES? WELL I GUESS I WILL SEE!

    DID THE TECH FROM ASSURE OR AZURE OR WHATEVER REMOVE IT AS A WAY TO LOWER MY DEFENSES OR WAS HE GIVING ME REAL TRUE ADVICE AND THE PIRATES ARE REALLY USING AKAMAI TO GET IN? WHO KNOWS OUT THERE? WHY DID I HAVE TO REMOVE AKAMAI AND WHO WAS MY TECH A PIRATE
    ACTING UNDER ASSURE INTERCEPTING MY CALL TO MICROSOFT? HOW CAN ANYONE KNOW THE TRUTH? I BINGED AND GOOGLED ASSURE AND AZURE AND DID NOT GET WHAT I EXPECTED I GET AZURE AS CLOUD SECURITY AND ASSURE AS A TOPIC OF SCAM CONVERSATIONS! SO WAS I SCAMMED OR DO
    I ACTUALLY HAVE A SOFTWARE SECURITY PROGRAM THAT I CAN NOT USE NOW AFTER THE FIRST CALL AND PAYMENT!

    THE LINK ON GOOGLE IN JAVA SCRIPT INSPECTION LOOKS LIKE THIS:

    <div class="crl" data-ved="0ahUKEwj9_9Cu9ZzNAhUEzmMKHcSiBrkQ5CsIJDAA" jsaction="crd.tglpop" data-async-context="res:0;ri:;site:microsoftstore.com" data-async-trigger="cra-0-filled">Microsoft Store<span class="_Bs"></span></div>

    THE ADD LOOKS LIKE THIS:

    Buy
    Assure Software Support Plan - Microsoft Store


    www.microsoftstore.com/.../Assure-Software...Plan/productID.287685...

    THEN LOOK UP MICROSOFT ASSURE NUMBER AND GET ALL THIS AND GOOGLE CORRECTING ME BY ASKING IF IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN, see the correction included with all the AZURE WHICH IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN AND JUST LIKE I STARTED NOBODY KNOWS ANYTHING FOR SURE. OR IS
    SOMEONE JUST MISSPELLING AZURE EVEN ON THE THE MICROSOFT BILLING SUMMARY:

    MICROSOFT ASSURE PLAN - a SCAM???

    MICROSOFT 1-800-936-5700

    Now hangs up on you, suggesting you pay for answers for your support.

    The 'support' they are recommending is MICROSOFT ASSURE PLAN?

    So why is this not an OPTION, customers could verbally prompt request "help with Microsoft Assure Plan" in order to reach a technical support technician?

    CAN ANYONE CONFIRM THIS IS THE REAL TELEPHONE NUMBER TO MICROSOFT (U.S)??

    *I have Windows 7 computer, upgraded online per assistant with 'Microsoft Assure Plan', upgraded to Windows 10. I am trying to run scans online.

    PLEASE, WHICH VERSION DO I HAVE?? MY COMPUTER IS USING WINDOWS 10, BUT IS STILL FOR THE MOST PART WINDOWS 7 VERSION. I NEED TO CHOOSE CORRECT VERSION TO SCAN MY COMPUTER FOR VIRUS AND MALWARE UPDATES AND SCANS.
