LastPass Reviews

I got the password manager because I read a review that said it was good for Macs. That was not my experience. There were several different ways to access it... through the website, through an icon on my computer, through a browser extension... All had slightly different options. When I contacted support they were condescending and implied I didn't know what I was doing. I stopped using it in less than 3 months even though I'd paid for the premium membership.

I've been using LastPass for years, first the free version, then the paid version. I have been very satisfied with the service - that's why I decided to pay for it. I was surprised to see the number of negative reviews here. Most of the issues seem to be with customer support, which I have never needed to use. I've used LastPass on PCs, phones, Chromebooks and iPad. It lets me use complex and unique passwords without effort. It consistently gets high marks from professionals (PCMag, etc.). I can't speak to the support issue, but the product has been just fine for me.

I submitted their requested information in order to obtain their service. I had read a decent review of what they offered. I was in the process of completing what was requested but my request wasn't processing for some unknown reason. I quit the application so no filled application was submitted to them. I thought that I should try later once again.

This worked for quite a while but went bad about 2 months ago (from the time of this writing). When a password is created or when any entry is changed, LastPass fails to save the change. I'm given a response that the server timed out. This happens regardless of platform or location. I had the problem for months before I finally decided that LastPass wasn't going to detect and fix the problem. I reported it over a week ago and although they've told me they've duplicated the problem, it's still not fixed. Worse, I can't talk to anyone because they only have email as a method to communicate. Imagine that, in today's Chat world, they're stuck using email. I highly recommend that one NOT choose LastPass.

Their support is terrible. Even as a "premium user". No phone number, days and weeks between responses that don't even seem to be relevant to my current problem. Too reliant on "export, uninstall, reinstall, reimport" as their like only solution to problems. I can't even log into the help center on my paid, premium account because their web programmers shove the login back to the "my sites" landing page. ** LastPass.

I have had a premium account for about 5 years. This week, shortly after LastPass took money for a renewed subscription, they informed me they were ditching XMarks. This shows appalling contempt for their customers. In disgust, I have unsubscribed. My new sub with Dashlane, which is marvellous, has highlighted that LastPass is actually not all that good either.

I have been a LastPass user for almost 5 years - first as free version and then as premium. Rates were reasonable. This year they have DOUBLED the rates for premium user, without any communication or explanation for the action. I understand that prices go up but do it fairly, transparently and communicate with your clients. Now trying to talk with customer service to get explanation. I am being put into silly loop of responses that do not address my concern.and are basically aimed at making me so frustrated that I give up. They have me by the throat now as of course I all my password in there. It's a good product but it's too bad that company doesn't care about their clients enough to be honest with the price changes.

I've used LastPass subscription version for about 3 years. Prior to upgrading, I use the free version for about a year. The interface is easy for me to use because I've used it so long it has become familiar to me. I always have a feeling that there MUST be a better, more simple one to use "out there", but I've tried several other similar programs, and this one seems to works well enough for me so far, even though I DO have several annoying problems with it from time to time. For example, on random occasions, the program doesn't load on startup even though I've set it to do so. Thus, when I attempt to login to sites, the autologin feature doesn't work, and the only indicator of the status is the icon is dark. That indicator is difficult to spot until I try to open passworded sites and see that the autologin feature isn't working as it should. To utilize it, I have to launch the program manually.

I was locked out again within the last four months. Account recovery does not work. They say create new account, so I try using my email address, which results in LP saying that email account already exists and therefore I cannot do that. The password hint box sent to email is blank. I have received several emails from LP which haven't helped me one bit. I have no idea how to get around this ridiculous runaround. There is no way to actually get real help. I forgot my master password which is my fault, I will take responsibility for my own mistake, but LP will not do anything but give the same pat advice over and over. I do not have the receipt as I only use the free version, and I am glad I do because if I was paying for this lousy help I would really be sick.

I signed up for a Premium Family account at a cost of $48 annually. I was supposed to be able to add up to 5 family members. However, the family member I added was never able to establish a password, and the technical support I requested was unhelpful. We were directed to delete her account then create a new one. However, we could not create a new account since her email remained in the system. The support team didn't get the problem despite multiple explanations, and the ultimate recommendation ended up with my account reverting to the one person, free account. My issue is not with how LastPass is effective, but the difficulty in obtaining technical support that can actually understand the problem and the impossibility of actually talking to a person.

LastPass does a good job of saving passwords and keeping them in a secure "vault." It's nice to remember only one password. It also generates complex passwords which is helpful. There is an option for multifactor authentication which is a good idea. I chose Yubikey and purchased two of their keys on Amazon for $80.00. LastPass prompts for the Yubikey but if I don't provide it it will open the vault containing all my passwords anyway. So even though I enabled Yubikey multifactor authentication in my settings I don't get it. Naturally, they want everyone to upgrade to the $12 version of LastPass but it makes no sense to start paying for something that doesn't work.

Not a Premium account. While I do not keep bank account and other important passwords online I find LastPass keeps library, educational and other passwords accessible. I've used LastPass for years. Never had an issue. Plus, when I can't be creative enough to make my own password I love that LastPass can generate one for me. And with just one password to remember I can log on from any of my devices. :-) Even when away from home.

I've paid a for a 1 year LastPass Premium Subscription on April 7, 2016. On May 9, 2016 I was billed for another 1 year subscription! Again. They say I over billed myself?! Customer Service said 'sorry' No Refund. After showing screen shots to prove they made the extra bill. NO REFUND 'sorry'. I made sure auto renewal was unchecked. Today, Auto Renewal checked ON again! Not by me. So disappointed. They've changed since being bought out by LogMeIn. Your payments go to Marvasol Inc DBA LastPass. Forget being heard after they have your money- whether their fault or not. Stay with free account or better yet, use another password manager.

I am a long time Premium user and I JUST renewed about a month ago and have more than 11 months left and asked for a full refund as I will not use it any longer due to all the exploits and security issues. I was told no it was too long ago (Ummm it just renewed 3/9/17) and to transfer it to someone else. I do not want to transfer it nor should I have to especially with all the security risks of late. I was denied my refund and forced to lost money while my husband who also renewed received his back.

Here you go! LastPass has been fairly straightforward and I have been using the service for about 3 years. Out of that time I have loss my passwords on two different occasions. The first time support after a week was able to retrieve my passwords and I was able to continue without any further disruptions. Recently, LP has lost my passwords again. This time and it's been over three weeks support hasn't been able to retrieve them. I will post every couple of days to let you know when I finally regain my passwords.
