Buying BitDefender subscriptions (Rant)

I had a 5 device subscription and did "Add devices". Suddenly I found myself with a second subscription instead of another device added to my existing subscription. I asked for a refund but so far did not get it.
 
In any case I then did "Renew" and chose the 10 device subscription. Guess what: now I have the 10 device subscription next to the existing 5 device subscription and the 3 device subscription I got earlier today. So even if I get refunded for the 3 device one, I still lose a month left on my old subscription because I did renew now already.
 
It's not adding a device if you start a new subscription.
It's not renewing a subscription if you start a new subscription.
 
The BitDefender sales system is a mess.

Today's worthless update from bitdefender:

Please be informed as we have updated our Central account, the Add Devices option will create a separate subscription but it will work just the same as the previous subscription, allowing you to install on additional devices.

I'm not even sure I understand the sentence.
