Administrators Marcos 5,461 Posted May 14, 2020 Administrators Posted May 14, 2020 What did your local ESET support tell when you called them? I was unable to find any license registered with your forum registration email address. Please provide your public license ID.

Administrators Marcos 5,461 Posted May 15, 2020 Administrators Posted May 15, 2020 The license you provided was canceled. It was issued to a person from Afghanistan and had been used for activation on thousands of machines before it was canceled. If you have paid for it, unfortunately you have fallen a victim of fraud. To prevent this, we strongly recommend purchasing a license from an authorized seller.

Yep been confirmed by eBay account was hacked and taken over have my refund, do you have a list of authorized seller’s or would it be cheaper to upgrade my licence to 3 machines? All1
Administrators Marcos 5,461 Posted May 15, 2020 Administrators Posted May 15, 2020 You should be able to find authorized partners at https://www.eset.com/uk/partner/finder/ If you have a valid license, you can contact the seller from whom you purchase it and extend it to 3 devices. It should be cheaper than purchasing separate licenses for each device.
Most Valued Members Nightowl 206 Posted May 15, 2020 Most Valued Members Posted May 15, 2020 (edited) I believe the license you are trying to use was sold through ebay or some other cd-keys website , usually these cd-keys are bought by people and then stolen from people and then sold again to people which is called Grey Market sometimes. And in some cases these cd-keys are bought using stolen credit cards , or bought from a country that will use a cheap price and then sold to a country with an expensive prices priced normally or cheap. So you buy one and after few months you will have a trouble with it , as it's just a matter of time before ESET detects and disables that license. You better buy from Official ESET Partners or where ESET website directs you when you click "Buy Now". Edited May 15, 2020 by Nightowl

RichardR 2 Posted May 19, 2020 Posted May 19, 2020 Hello, I have the same problem. The email I used to originally buy Eset was hacked a year ago. I am trying to reinstall Internet Security, but it will not let me activate the program with my license. I have not heard back from Eset support. For now, I am using the trial license. Any suggestions on how to retrieve my account? I have been an Eset fan for years. I would appreciate any help that you can give me. Thank you

If so, you should have received a confirmation email with a ticket ID, please provide it. I was able to find only one trial license for ESET Internet Security registered with your forum email address that is due to expire on June 16, 2020.

I assume this is the license key you are trying to use to activate Eset with. Post the public License ID for that license. Refer to the below screen shot on how to do this:
RichardR 2 Posted May 19, 2020 Posted May 19, 2020 Thank you for all your help. I was still having problems with the license key, so I went ahead and purchased a two year subscription for two computers. Can I have the days on the old subscription added to my new subscription?
Administrators Marcos 5,461 Posted May 20, 2020 Administrators Posted May 20, 2020 According to colleagues from ESET LLC, you should receive a response within today. I assume it should be possible to merge the two license so that you have just one license key that will be valid for the existing period extended by the remaining period of the other license.
RichardR 2 Posted May 21, 2020 Posted May 21, 2020 Marcos, Thank you for your help. I was told that it was not possible to merge the two licenses.
