New AVG upgrade made things worse

I had the free AVG and after running a scan, the option for upgrades with better protection came up.  I finally decided to go for it, and paid for an upgrade.  Now, one day in, I already have no protection at all while also in Passive Mode.  It was a total waste of money and now it seems my computer is more at risk which seems to be the exact opposite of what the service is that I paid for.  Total bummer.  I should never have given you guys my money.  How do I resolve this immediately?

Hello Steve,
Let me explain this for you. Your concern here is related to AVG Internet Security but the product you have purchased is AVG Tuneup Unlimited. Both are different products with different features.
Passive mode on Antivirus will get turned on if there is other security products installed on your device. You can turn off this mode in your Antivirus settings. Would you like to purchase AVG Internet Security to have complete protection?
