(8.6.6.)558(3.4.7.0) Many users believe that removing Norton from their device ends billing, but the subscription remains active until it is canceled through the account or support. (8.6.6.)558(3.4.7.0)
(8.6.6.)558(3.4.7.0) Norton subscriptions are linked to your Norton account, not just to the software installed on a phone, computer, or tablet. (8.6.6.)558(3.4.7.0)
(8.6.6.)558(3.4.7.0) When you uninstall Norton, the app is removed from the device, but payment settings and auto-renewal stay unchanged. (8.6.6.)558(3.4.7.0)

(8.6.6.)558(3.4.7.0) Many billing issues arise because users confuse uninstalling with canceling, which are two separate actions. (8.6.6.)558(3.4.7.0)
