Kaspersky Renewal price difference.

My subscription for Kaspersky Internet Security Multi Device Protection is due to end next month and they are quoting me a discounted renewal price of £29.99.

However it seems that I can buy exactly the same thing from Tesco Direct for £14.

I must be missing something here, as the products seem identical. Any idea why the big price difference.

I know I should ask Kaspersky but any previous contact with them has ended up in their misunderstanding my question and giving solutions which completely confuse me and I've found the answer by googling elsewhere.

Seems crazy that Tesco can offer it cheaper but it's true. They most likely got a bulk buy discount.

Re: Kaspersky Renewal price difference.

Re: Kaspersky Renewal price difference.

Norton are the same, I try to buy a new product and simply enter the key to renew. Same function until this year when they now have a "new product" so you can renew the "old - 3 PCs" for £50 or buy the new for £29 (at time - 10 devices). Hmm! What a choice.

Just hoping they don't do the same thing next year and I can find a discounted box (card) version and enter the key.
