For the last days, I have been trying to investigate the removal of a domain from my control panel and contracts, and for the better half of which, hoping to resolve a billing matter before the WHOIS reported expiration of this domain on FEB As I understand the events leading up to this issue based on a brief explanation from their support team during the first week of February, an issue with a contract more than a year ago had, under my impression, been resolvedApparently this was not the case, and the "package" in which this domain was bundled with (which as of the 20th, has been in this package for years), was removed from my account I discovered this when attempting to take an offer from [redacted] Domains to transfer this domain in at no cost for an extended registration period, and could not find the entry in my control panel anywhere, not even the cancellations panel Today, I write this complaint as my business has effectively been shut down for the past

I made an online purchase from this company, which was a downloadable microsoft word softwarePrior to making my purchase, I ensured that I met all the requirements for the download that the company had listedAbout minutes after I made the purchase, I received a downloadable link and key code in my emailHowever, when I clicked on the link, I was taken to a screen stating that the weblink was non-existentI contacted the company to inform them of this malfunction, where they sent me another link and instructed me to re-tryI clicked on this new link, yet it was a dysfunctional link once againI contacted them again to let them know, and this time, I requested a refund for sending me a failed productHowever, instead of providing me with a refund, they attempted to send another link telling me to try againI tried once again, where it also failedI sent them another email asking for a refund due to the product not working correctlyAfter not hearing from them for hours

Dear [redacted] (Customer ID # [redacted] ), I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience that has occurred here in regard to switching packages Our records indicate that the Billing Agent you spoke with this morning, informed you of the refund in the amount of $which has already been applied and processed through our systemThis amount is the pro-rated refund issued towards the 2/27/invoice in the amount of $52.38, which was the refund referenced to you, after the first initial Hosting Package change took placeThose funds ($41.96) should have been re-applied to your credit card by your bank or financial institution at this timeThe most recent invoice under this account generated on 4/5/14, in the amount of $37.13, which was associated with the change from the Basic Package, to the Performance Package That balance was never charged, and was waived by the Cancellation Team due to you having canceled the packageHowever, within this invoice, the $ charge you received from the invoice on 3/30/14, was applied to the new overall balance as a refund, which is why the 4/5/was such a low price before it was waivedI know that the invoices and description can be confusing, I apologize, it is due to all of the changes that had occurred, and those recent charges having the refunds applied to the new charges In order to better assist you with this unfortunate situation, aside from the $refund which we have issued, I am also refunding you an additional $128.85, which is from all invoices you had been billed in x $(Invoice dates: 2/27/and 8/26/13), x $(Invoice date: 10/26/13) I hope that this helps alleviate some of the frustration that has been caused here Once more, we apologize for any inconvenience that you have experienced [redacted] Customer Care 1&Internet Inc http://www.1and1.com

I signed up for their $0.18 domain. After waiting for them to take 18 cents out of my [redacted] account, they emailed me saying they were waiting for payment. I gave them a credit card and they still couldn't get paid. Then they emailed me a bill and I told them I tried to pay them and if they can't get the money out they should just forget about it. Today I got a collections notice for $33.94. When I called [redacted] (bill collector) I got voicemail for someone who was not even in the office.

I purchased several different domains from 1 and 1 on different dates. Earlier this year when my renewals were coming up, I decided to cancel all the domains I no longer wanted. Their website is so confusing I called their CS number in May and spoke to a rep for 20 minutes. She went down the list of domains I wanted cancelled. After that I paid for 2 domains I wanted to keep and was charged $29.98 for those on 5-13. I then went online after instruction from the rep and found the way to cancel the rest I didnt want through their website. I then was charged another 14.99 renewal for the third domain I wanted to keep on 6-14. I was then charged another 14.99 on 6-30, still not sure why this is. In July , 1 and 1 then billed me for $59.96 AFTER sending me 4 emails claiming they were refunding me 4 charges of 14.99 for the domains I cancelled, those refunds which I never received anyway. Because I knew I'd cancelled all but 3 domains and they'd been paid for, I filed a dispute with my bank

1&Invoiced me for two hosting 'contracts' dating back to (It's today 3/28/2017) stating I never paid those when they were services that were cancelled and never usedThere is plenty of history on the web about 1&billing for cancelled servicedThey then locked my account holding my domain renewal hostage in exchange for payment of those year old contractsOnce the contracts were paid (They gave me no choice), they said I should be able to renew the domainThey let my domain get expired and get listed for auction on a websiteMind my frustration when a company that generates $1.4M in yearly revenues looses their domain name for a billing issue out of your control that could have been easily correctedStay far far away from this company
