AVG Internet Security Update Renewal

I have subscriptions  for AVG Cleaner, and AVG Anti-Virus and Cleaner.

Are these redundant?

A subscription for AVG Tune Up is also active.

The AVG Internet Security is just expiring and price has almost doubled from $29.99 to 49.99, extremely pricey for me.

I also have something on my desktop called TOTAL AVG, and every now and then it pops up, have no idea what it is, or what it does.

Is there redundancy in any of these subscriptions? 

I cannot reach anyone at AVG to find out and discuss, , a disappointing change from the past.

I am thinking, that I might be better off to begin a migration to anothert company, thoughts?

It sounds like you're dealing with a lot of overlap in your AVG subscriptions, which can be confusing and potentially unnecessary. Evaluating the features of each service can help determine if they are redundant. For instance, AVG Cleaner and AVG Tune-Up have similar optimization features, while AVG Anti-Virus and Internet Security both provide protection. Consolidating or switching to a simpler plan might save costs.
If you're unsure about next steps, check out options online or contact customer support again—sometimes reaching out via social media channels gets a faster response. On a similar note, managing something like an NBI clearance application (https://nbi-clearance-online.ph/how-to-save-your-nbi-clearance/) has become much easier with streamlined online processes, eliminating unnecessary steps and frustration. Maybe explore similar streamlining options for your subscriptions.
