Go Daddy www.godaddy.com

Attempted to buy a pre-registered domain (i.e. already register by another owner). Although my offer was low, it reflected the value to me, I wasn't overly bothered as it would have had only a marginal effect on my business. The sales executive managed to put GoDaddy on my avoid list, seemed to take the process quite personally, something wrong at home maybe? There are plenty of other companies offering the same services without the personal reflections of sales staff on the customers business methodology, good or bad.

Please provide details about your experience

I got a domain for a business I had and closed 4 years ago in 2014 GoDaddy charged me $255 in 2016 because they said I had hit the recurring payment button and would not remove the charge at that time I cancelled the service and behold in 2018 again they charged me $255 I called again and again they didn't remove it, they wont cancel my account and since I have no access to my account because of the old password used they wont help me in getting to my account. I asked them to cancel the recurring payment and to cancel my account and they wont do it. Their treatment is down right discriminator and rude, they can care less about you once you leave and apparently they must be in trouble when they keep charging fees unnecessarily. DO NOT USED GODADDY they don't care about you when you leave them and will do what they can get those $$$$ DO NOT USE THEM especially if you're Hispanic, I was treated like a second class citizen and I was treated like dirt, this coming from people that answer phone for a living go figure.

More detailed review is better

I thought I would try Go Daddy for two years and then move on. Received a charge from Go Daddy for a renewal I didn't authorize. I called the company and its position is that renewals are automatic unless you check a box. Oh, and it would refund your charge after five days, only the credit card statement doesn't come within it's five day window!

Go Daddy talked our company into upgrading to Office 365 email. They said it would be easy and they would migrate all our emails. On migration day, they said they couldn't migrate folders with more than 25,000 emails. We had one employee with 50,000 in his inbox and 75,000 in his sent items. We had to move them 1000 at a time to other folders. Each user had to download Office Assistant and some other files. We finally got through all of this and email wouldn't work. Go Daddy said you have to us a new login which takes several steps. I accomplished this but I couldn't provide the steps to other employees because email wasn't working. I had to call and go through the steps with each employee. I have spent 2 days on this and it is only marginally working. When you call technical support you get sometimes a qualified person but many times a clueless person. I am counting the days till our contract is up.

I bought a domain with godaddy in 2015, I heard nothing more from them for two years when the trebled the price and then took the money from me without reminding me renewal was due or notifying me of the new price. I called them to refund it but they said they don't refund .co.uk domains. I asked for the address of their complaints department, and guess what, they don't have one. All you can do is moan at the helpdesk guy. Shoddy service and Dishonest business model.

Auto renewal a domain I am no longer using. Then would not allow me to cancel!

Run Away!

Any chance to charge you they will. I had multiple domains to renew, expiring over the course of 3 months. I had a bulk price renew discount offer. I got a better offer elsewhere however GoDaddy would not release the domains to the other company. They told me if I wanted to keep my domains I would have to renew through them. Since I had to keep my business domains, I was forced to pay. They said they would give me the bulk offer they made me and I paid. Then I found out they did not renew all the domains as discussed. And once again had to pay if I want to keep them. Another $75 later. It cost me more than if I had just renewed each one online separately. Do not call in. Every time I speak to someone they make it worse. I will initiate transfer of domains again.

I purchased a domain at go daddy, and was in the process to publish my site, and in that process I was given a choice of $144 to publish, and edit my site I find this ridiculous and refused to pay it, well now I cannot even publish my site, without paying this extortion!!

another charge was added to my account, because all the settings are set to auto renew, and if you dont shut them off (which they never alert you too) than you are charged, and you have to go thru the ringer to get your money back, This service (if u can call it that) is a sham, and if you dont pay attention to every little detail they will WHACK YOU with a charge.. My suggestion is to go somewhere else!!!

all they want you to do is buy more from them when you should get them with your package, not impressed
