GoDaddy

Absolutely terrible experience trying to purchase a domain from GoDaddy.

Recently, I found a domain that I liked that was only available on GoDaddy. I promptly added it to my cart and continued searching for other top-level domain alternatives. A few days later, the domain was no longer available, removed from my cart, and put behind a $180 brokerage fee pay wall. After looking up the domain registrant on WHOIS, I found that the domain was being held by Mesh Digital Limited (a subsidiary company of GoDaddy). It became apparent that GoDaddy mo...

If you enjoy the frustration of trying to explain your concerns with a Philipino. Go for it.. They also blatantly lied about having free access to Microsoft office, whilst hosting a domain name and providing a professional email

Total scam artists. I haven't had a domain or any other subscription/product with GoDaddy since January 2018 but I am still being charged annually. No email, no receipt, nothing in my account order history. Just a mysterious charge on my credit card statement around the same time each year. I have to go through the same crap with GoDaddy support every time who are completely unhelpful (bordering on rude) and will only repeatedly state that no further charges have been made - even though I have the CC statement right in front of me with the tran...

Stay away from GoDaddy. Have had nothing but headaches and problems. They shut my website down without notifications. Closed my email down and debited $570 AUS for something I’ve never used. I had to go to consumer affairs in order to get my money back. They wouldn’t help through covid and kept charging maximum price, when the business was not operational during lockdowns. Never ever go with this company. Worst experience.

I have been wanting to migrate my website for 2 months now, and they dont have any customer centre for Australia. I would not recommend it for anyone in Aus.

Call centres will pick up the phone quick, but put you back on hold for hours.

Godaddy views your search history and takes the domain you have recently searched for, making it unavailable. They then ask you for over $160 to get the domain for you when in actual fact they own the domain themselves. Disgusting company, don’t know how they haven’t gotten caught yet

Rang initially phone call answered in about 3 minutes but the person just hung up on me then i called back promptly was on hold for over an hour. we were trying to point our new domain to our server but they wouldn't allow new records to be changed. My Web guy finally figured it all out without their assistance

You know what I love? Coming back after a long weekend away camping (In no phone reception) to find that one of my domains had been parked. If your payment fails, you have a mere couple of days to rectify it otherwise your domain will be parked, you had better hope that you're not running a production critical SaaS or online sales page on your domain because all your customers will no longer be able to access your services.

The payment method configured had been cancelled (credit card details were brute forced by someone a few months ago) and ...

Worst staff, bullied me when I was in reason, dont buy anything from this company, now I need to find another hosting sites, they didnt send me chat conversation, why ? Because they knew I will take it further. Go somewhere else youve been ---w a r n e d---

I use Godaddy for my domain and purchased email hosting through office 365 with them for my business. I’ve used their website creator for a basic business website in the past and it did the job but was very basic and better suited to a beginner on a tight budget. I’m very happy with Godaddy. It’s easy to use and good value.

Wherever possible I pay with PayPal and have done so with my Godaddy purchases. I see a lot of reviewers feel they have unauthorised charges from Godaddy and PayPal offers peace of mind.

Save yourself a headache and take your money somewhere else, doesn’t matter what product and what service, I’ve tried it all and regret every single dollar that was spent there.

Cheap website fees that are set to autorenew at extortionate rates in the fine print. Even if you don’t select auto renew, they set it up so it auto renews any way and it’s in the fine print of the terms and conditions. If you don’t cancel within 24 hours, you have paid it and they won’t refund. DISGUSTING

I received a sales call from Go Daddy to purchase a product I’d cancelled years ago. When I told the sales rep I wasn’t interested he became rude, critical and manipulative. There was also no way to lodge a complaint. One reason I changed web providers was the lack of customer service and long wait on the phone to get technical support

I tried to cance auto renewal a number of times and finally succeeded - only to find that minutes later they charged me for something that was not in our agreement. Now I will have to follow up with them to refund the money. Don't give them your credit card details!

I recommend them to my mate to arrange and build a website
He has had support issues since it's been up.
1/ They are not based in Australia, so good luck getting support
2/ When you try and get support, they don't fix what you have requested the issue was
3/ They try and blame everyone else, in consideration, They built the site.
I would be very careful in using or recommending them !!!!!!!!!!
The person i recommended is now dumping them and moving his site away from them
