Malwarebytes lifetime licence

Options
They had stopped offering lifetime licences a while ago, but apparently they're back again. One lifetime licence is £19.99 from the link below. Not bad (I think).

I got mine ages ago before they stopped them, but only found out they're on again last night, so picked one up for a family member.

    There are several online stores selling these licenses.

    £15.99 here - http://www.buysoftwarefast.com/products/security/malwarebytes-antimalware-pro-1pc,(GBP_en)

    I'm not 100% certain any are legit though.

    I think you might be right there, there's no lifetime licence available that I can see on the actual MB website (got mine yonks ago - glad I did!) Could be that these places selling them purchased a whole bunch of lifetime licenses before MB stopped doing them but I'd be a tad wary.

    And from the MB support pages:

    - Malwarebytes Anti-Malware PRO licenses (purchased prior to 3/24/2014) are valid for an entire lifetime and require no renewal
    - Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Premium licenses (purchased after 3/24/2014) are valid for one year after the purchase date

    With the switch to a subscription license model, Malwarebytes will not be selling any more lifetime licenses. The new subscription model allows you to protect up to three PCs with one license.
    Now free from the incompetence of vodafail
  • Just to let everybody know All lifetime licences after 3/24/2014 are fake.

    I have been had by buying lifetime license from company on Amazon.

    License works in Windows 7 but not in Windows 10 and was told by Malwarebytes support that licence is fake and that after 3/24/2014 they did not sell lifetime license.

    You're wrong. The lifetime licence I bought from DownloadCrew has been installed just fine, and on Windows 10.

    That doesn't make it legit though.
