I have a late 2013 13" Macbook Pro with the same problem. It's only Safari, not Chrome. I just updated to Mojave. I did try Bing, making it my default for a little while, but didn't like it. I must have 'tried' something malicious.
I've tried:
- Removing add ons from all browsers.
- Deleted firefox.
- Had a look at recent applications and deleted anything not crucial.
- Reviewed old applications and cleaned house.
- Changed within Safari back to Google - not working.
Nothing works and not seeing a lot of solutions other than to buy macbook cleaner and I'm not really sure that would work so waiting on some solid advice.
Thank you! I downloaded the malwarebytes scan for mac - and finally! Bing is gone!
