After using the Free Version for three years, today I was unable to open it. One hour with CHAT provided no help, and they informed me my account had not been used in FIVE YEARS. I would not like to repeat this, so am moving on.

I'd like to inform ANYONE reading this that last week on Black Friday I bought a new Mac laptop, to replace my older Mac laptop. I used a Time Machine to back up my work. The only thing not working was Dashlane, especially because I could not enter my account to retrieve my credit cards! Three (3) weeks before Christmas!!! "Peter" from Dashlane must have thought that I wanted a pen-pal instead of HELP!!!! Because for the past week I get a daily email from him with another "code" to be able to enter my account. NO ONE HAS CALLED ME TO OFFER ME EMERGENCY ASSISTANCE!!! After 5 years with Dashlane - where it is now not even working on my new android phone, I am READY TO QUIT THIS COMPANY WITH... Read More

Am a paid customer with Dashlane. Have used it know for about six months. Not all that impressed. Assigns a password, then locks me out. Will not sign in to the site, get oops seems like something is not right. Have checked both passwords on the site and in the Dashlane program and they are both the same. Then that means changing the password again. Should not have to be doing that. Then it does not work with all Canadian institutions. It will not allow you to log into the site from the software. I have to bring up the actual web page in order to log in. When I contacted the support at Dashlane, they said they were sorry that I was having problems. That's it, they were sorry. Really. Not...

Dashlane only has email customer support, so if you run into a problem like I did you are out of luck. I shared an account with my husband, so when he died I changed the email in the system to mine, but three years later, when I was asked for a verification code out of the blue (I knew the user name and password), it would only send the code to the now defunct email address, so I was unable to access the account. Customer service said tough luck but refused to cancel my account. Never set up automatic charges on your credit card with them and always have a backup plan.
