On Monday Jan30th of 2017, my customer came into my restaurant letting us know that our website was taken downWe then went to log into our account to see what was the issue, 1&took down our wed domain meaning that even though we had paid our service fee of $some dollarsAt this point I wanted to know what had happenedWhen I called I was able to get a very rude customer service rep who would continue to tell me that it was my fault that this happened, he told me that I still had two new balances due for my domainWhen I asked him why my domain balance was not included in my yearly fee he talked over me and proceeded to tell me that thats not how it is done and that I must pay that fee; with no proof and it was not their issue that I had to pay I'm all ready frustrated due to the fact that everything I asked I was never given an answerWhen I asked to speak to a supervisor he put he "on hold" for minutes to then tell me that his superior is on her hour lunch br

I have had domains with this company for several years now and some of my domains are on auto renewalHowever, I no longer need some of my domains and therefore I have cancelled some of themAbout moths ago, I was charged for a domain that I no longer haveI have informed them about the problem numerous times and asked for a refund but the answer is always "your refund will be issued in business days" but nothing is happeningI have tried calling and emailing but he answer is the sameI even sent them my credit card statement that shows the charge but I am always being told that the issue is being escalated to a higher level (...again nothing is happening)Today, I was on the phone for minutes with someone from their customer service and actually encouraged me to file a complaint here because there's nothing he could do as the case being escalated to a supervisor $dollars may not be a lot of money but I wanted to report this business because I don't want them to

A simple domain registration became a 'contract'Once service expired, cancellation is impossibleAfter login to the user dashboard, there is nothing but an option to update payment methodNo cancellation optionsCannot find anyone to talk to to resolve the issue, when clicked on 'contact us', I get redirected back and forth with 'help' and 'contact us' pagesPhysical letters sent to my house telling me debt collection agency is involved
I do not want to renew the contactI do not want your service anymoreI do not even care for the domain, just let it expireHow complicated is that? I was never told a domain registration became a contract
Even after I paid the 'renewal' feeI still cannot cancel the domain or contract, no such option available

Dear *** ***, (Customer ID # ***),
I sincerely apologize for any
inconvenience caused here
I have investigated this matter, and found that there
appears to have been an error in our system associated with this accountAs
you had mentioned, we did receive your payment of $ on 9/25/14, however, an
error seems to have followed after the fact that displayed a balance owed
under this account, and from there may have accidentally affected the DNS
settings for some reasonThis is very odd, as even in cases where a payment actually
declines, the system does not typically delete anything unless the balance
remains outstanding for 6-monthsDue to this, I have forward this matter to
our administrators to research the error further
At your request, we are refunding you in the amount of $
14.99, please allow 3-business days for this to be processedWe will also make
sure to drop any dispute issue that may still be ongoing at this time, once we
receive additional correspondence from your bank or financial institution
That being said, we would be more than happy to reactivate
the domain: *** free of charge, however, since it was
registered under the name of “*** ***”, it would have to be re-registered
under that same person at this timePlease email to: [email protected], if you wish to do so
Once more, we apologize for any inconvenience that has been
caused here
Thank you

I paid this company to host my webpage last yearThis year I received a bill for an excessive amount, not wanting
to do further business with them, I simply ignored the solicitationThey have since sent me nasty letters saying that I owed
them money and have been constantly calling my business phone number at work
I have recorded proof of over calls in one day( I am filing against them)
I don't owe them anything and would like them to go away and stop calling
I wish I would have never dealt with them,

I recieved a bill from & Internet a month ago and called to dispute it since I do not have an account with & The bill was for $ I have now recieved a notice from a collection agency saying that I now owe This is fraud I'm sure they think people will just pay the $to get rid of the bill The email address they claim is mine is *** This is not known to me and they continue to not resolve this issue and close this account Since it is in collections, it could go on my credit report I want them to cancel and close this account linked to my name and remove it from collections

I have been registering a single domain name with 1and1.com since January 11, I set up an auto-renewal on that date, provided my contact info, and have faithfully paid annually with the single credit card on file since that dateSEVEN YEARS LATER when my registration came up for renewal on Jan 11, 2018, apparently my credit card expiration date needed to be updated The email I used years ago to set up the credit card is no longer valid (an "undeliverable" email is returned to anyone who tries notifying them that it is not longer valid); however, both my address and phone number remain currentAccording to 1and1.com's own records, they attempted to use the (still valid) credit card on 1/13/and emailed a "payment failure notice" on 1/22/and 2/5/(to an email that bounced both times if they had noticed)On 2/19/(only business days after the original attempt to auto-renew), they sent my account to a collections agency They NEVER attempted to contact me by addre

As a domain registrar, they cannot bill for a domain that is not registered I let my domain expire in May of this year I received multiple notices that I had a delinquent balance For a service I did not renew
I called 1andon 7/19/and spoke with a rep named Jose (he was very friendly and helpful, this complaint is in NO WAY DIRECTED AT HIM)
I explained the situation, I did not renew the service, and yet I'm being told I have a delinquent bill for a service that was never rendered by this provider (I do not care to publicly list the domain in question, but it is available to register, meaning they are trying to bill me for service they DID NOT PROVIDE)
So Jose cancelled the contract that was still open, sent me a confirmation email, and then the following day I received a system generated confirmation of credit applied to the contract (zeroing the balance)
I checked the mail today, and I received another notice dated 8/3/that my invoice (same one I have conf

This company has the worst customer service I have ever encountered as a professional Entertainer I was lied to on several occasions which I have recordings of (you know for my training purposes.) I asked on several occasions to speak with a manager or supervisor only to be put on hold as if they were looking for a supervisor and then only to be giving to another customer service agent.....I guess they think we are all stupid and don't know that trick, it wasn't until one of the second customer service agents let it slip when she said she couldn't do something I was asking for because she wasn't a supervisor which then I was like oh that's strange because I ask for a supervisor was put on hold for several minutes to locate a supervisor and when you came on you claimed yourself as a supervisor yet now you basically just told me that you scam me This entire site is a scam and I will do everything in my power along with my agent, my manager and my agency's entertainment lawyer to bring fraud charges against this company as well as reporting them to the Revdex.com I will recommend anyone looking for services like they offer to look else where because they have frauds and liars who work there and real management who never gets back with their consumers/patrons to resolve issues

Nearly a year ago I first tried to cancel one of me services with 1&Internet inc and they said it could not be canceled so I began moving my accounts to another provider About months ago I called to cancel the last of my services with 1&Internet inc and the representative on the phone assured me the account would be closed and a credit would be applied to the account such that there are no future bills Every couple months since then I have received a new bill, called or emailed and once again been reassured the account would be closed with a credit applied to avoid future bills Most recently 1&Internet inc sent me a notice that they would be sending my account to collections if I did not pay within 7-business days I wrote back stating I wanted it removed as the account has been closed and their representative said it has been closed and they promptly sent me a credit to the account of $ Today I received a new bill for $- which is about what I
