I recently called Tag to have them lift off the filter for me to to do my own research. They lifted it off, but told me I'm still being charged. Now I want to ask them to either put that same filter back on, or change filters. But I'm uncomfortable asking them bec that'll cause them to bring up my account. I did delete the history search, but 1- does deleting mean that they actually don't have access to my research history? (Sometimes u gotta look up some sensitive stuff), and 2) does the fact that I deleted history raise eyebrows?

Please advise because I really want to take care of this asap.

Thank you in advance

Why can't you install the filter without going through TAG?

Go to gentech or techloq or whatever site and install it yourself. New account. unsubscribe from the one TAG controls.

You mean just block and unblock yourself as you wish without involving Tag?

Your info is there regardless if someone wants to pull it up or not. I don't see what you gain from not requesting to either put it back or switching.

You can take your device to a tech guy to remove it and put on a new one but they'll see that you've stopped connecting so, again, no gain.

Why not? I have never figured out why so many people think that only TAG can install filters

Contrary to popular belief on imamother, TAG technicians (at least the ones in the Lakewood office) are very busy. They generally try to complete whatever you ask them to do as quickly as possible. They are not going to go through your search history unless there is a specific reason you need them to do so. They can probably re-activate your account virtually without you even bringing in your device. Call them and you may be surprised.

If you want a recommendation for a different filter then you need to post what computer you have, and if you have mobile devices or a laptop that needs filtering then post the details for that as well. I doubt the tag dude is going to go fishing in your history if that’s your concern. But yes, he could do it if he wanted to.

Also make sure they will cancel your subscription and check whether you need to go into the tag office to get it cancelled. I had a huge hassle getting my gentech subscription cancelled. It was extremely unpleasant which is one reason why I don’t use tag filters anymore.

Yes, I was told to go into the office to Uninstall my account- I appreciate the reassurances! Ty.

It's android samsung a10e (for now) phone
And any advice on how to block all inappropriate would be appreciated

Lol this. They couldn’t care less about your search history and they just try to make you comfortable in my experience. They don’t look and don’t judge.

Oh please.
You have no idea exactly who works there, and you have no idea exactly what goes through their heads
