So I originally never heard of this company until I was checking my credit card statements back in December and found a charge from this companyNow, I had not used this card for over half a year so I was suspicious of the charge and tried contacting them to figure out what I was being billed for After several unsuccessful attempts at trying to contact them and being put on hold for an hour each time, I was finally able to talk to one of their representatives over the phoneWhen I asked to find out what it was that I supposedly purchased I was told that it was a website domain nameI have never tried to make a website before, so I figured that somebody might of stolen my credit card information and purchased the domain name using my informationWhen I asked for what the website name was (so I could go to the website and get more information on who possibly stole my credit card information), the representative sounded kind of panicky and ended up hanging up on me I called a

To whom it may concern: I am managing the website for a Torrington city wide event sponsored by The city of Torrington and Local Lions International Club. On 02/29/2016 I purchased a one year term domain with basic email services from 1&1 (Customer ID [redacted] ). The domain is torringtontagsale.com. On 5/5/2016, I noticed at least two dozen emails in my inbox (1&1 mail server for [redacted] ). However, after viewing the first email and returning to the inbox -- there where no emails to be found including the one I had just been viewing. I look in all the folders and still none were to be found. I called 1&1 on 5/7/2016 -- they confirmed the emails where on their server -- but, that I had to pay a fee to restore them. I disagreed explaining I don't believe it is right for them to charge me for their error. He said he could do nothing unless I paid the fee. I then explained that even if I agreed -- additions funds would take a month to be a

Got hit with the $PHP scam these guys are doing Asked for a refund, and was given a runaround for over a year They will say [redacted] will not accept their payment, then when I send a request for payment form [redacted] , they say they cannot use [redacted] and need a credit card I said I wasn’t going to give them my creditcard number because all they will do is take more money out of my account and asked them to send a check Which they replied they cannot do This a scam There’s a lot of other complaining of the same scam [redacted]

After I stopped using their service and removed my card, I expected their service would stop However, they billed me for an automatic renewal and sent me to collectionsI had no idea that there was an automatic renewal set up, and this practice seems deceptive So I paid that charge and told them I wanted everything cancelledA month later I got another collections bill for even more! So I called them and found that there were other renewals that had been done previous to my earlier experience After discussing the situation they agreed to cancel all charges, so I do appreciate their working with me on that

I purchased domains from this business in In I was sent invoices notifying me the domains would renew for the next annual period (2015-2016) and that I would be automatically charged for these domainsMy bank was charged the following business day and payment was made in full on both invoicesI have come to find out that this company never actually renewed those domains that I paid for - one was released and the other was released and purchased by another companyI have contacted the company multiple times now by phone and email in an attempt to resolve the problem and identify what happenedTo date: they billed and took payment for services they never performed and they have not attempted to resolve my issue

I purchased a domain from & on the 13th of April, I immediately marked it against auto-renewal to prevent auto-renewalA year later, an e-mail from them arises - coming with an attached invoice for $They auto-renewed my contract, even though I received e-mails from them warning of the expiration of my domainThese e-mails asked me to renew my contract - proof that I asked not to have it auto-renewed

Dear [redacted] (Customer ID # [redacted] ), I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience associated with the domain renewal and cancellation of your account For the security of our customers, we do not cancel accounts/domains via emailI apologize if this caused any inconvenience or miscommunication between our agents and yourself That being said, in order to assist you with this, at your request the account in question has been canceledThe balance of $has been waivedMoving forward, you will no longer be billed or invoiced for this service, since the account is no longer active We apologize for any inconvenience that has been caused here Thank you David M [redacted] Customer Care 1&Internet Inc http://www.1and1.com

Dear [redacted] (Customer ID # [redacted] ), I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience associated with your account. In regard to this matter, this account was set up with 3 different Basic Hosting packages on April 28th, and 29th of 2014. Each one of those packages was paid for a year in advance, and included a free annual domain name registration. The domain names included were: [redacted] .com, [redacted] .com, and [redacted] .com. At the inception of this account, it was also agreed to that unless first canceled, all services would renew for another year at a time on the date that they were originally purchased. Later in the year on 11/24/14, the domain name: [redacted] .net was also purchased and placed under one of the referenced packages as a separate charge for annual registration as well. That being said, your hosting packages renewed for another year of service and 3 new invoices were generated on April 30th, and May 1st 2015. The April 30th invoice was processed from your PayPal account on 5/2/15, the same day that you then emailed in telling us not to bill you. We had replied informing you to cancel online, or to contact our Cancellation Team so that we could assist you with any unwanted services, as for the security of our customers, we do not process account changes via email. Afterwards, the 2 invoices from 5/1/15 declined payment, and you disputed the payment of $71.88 for the 4/30/15 invoice. Our Cancellation Team also attempted to call you due to the emails that were received, but the phone number on file does not work. Due to declined payments outstanding within our system for 30+ days, and the Chargeback that was issued, all services under the account were locked. In order to assist you with this unfortunate situation, we are clearing all open balances, and will drop the Chargeback in order for you to have complete access to your domain names. At this time, if you wish to transfer any domains that you still own to another provider, this is an action that you as the domain owner would have to initiate from the domain registrar of your choice, while they are still registered under your name. Once the transfers have been completed, if you do not wish to call our Cancellation Team (###-###-####), please send an email to: [email protected], and we will honor your request to cancel the hosting packages so that you are not invoiced again in 2016. Once more, we apologize for any inconvenience that has been caused here. Thank you. David M [redacted] Customer Care 1&1 Internet Inc. http://www.1and1.com

You will no longer be billed or invoiced for this service in the future. Once more, we apologize for any inconvenience that has been caused here. Thank you.

I would disagree with the description that 1and1.com has achieved growth through their "customer service"I rarely write reviews; but I am so dissatisfied, and I felt it is necessary to let people know about my experienceI've used godaddy and google domains previously, and decided to try 1andrecentlyI had to wait days to have access to the domains while they "created the contract"After my domains were established an accessible, I began to receive about 5-phone calls a day for marketing (even an overseas call from India)I would ask them to remove me from the calling lists, until one individual shared a tip with meHe said to call 1andand request my domain to be privateI used 1andbecause I thought they offered free private registrationsTheir prices are good, but it was pretty shocking to see the volume of marketing phone calls I began to receive after utilizing their servicesIt is disappointingJust stick to G [redacted] .com or even G [redacted] https://goo.gl/YBgaxo

I had called and cancelled 3 domains (Customer ID: [redacted] , Ticket No. [redacted] )and they confirmed will issue refund to the account which is charged. But they never issued a refund and when I called them they told its used for other domain renewals in my account which they never mentioned anywhere. I clearly told them I don't want to do any renewals and I need a refund. I had called again them on Friday and the support guy confirmed the money will be refunded to the [redacted] account and nothing happened yet. I had send emails and they never responded properly to it and they need to call their billing every time, which took almost 30 mins for a call and now I had spend $30-35 to call them to get a refund of <50. Can you help to resolve this as it seems they don't want to payback any money. I'm having all the email correspondences and the refund receipt saying it will be credited back to the account used to pay. The emails from them is below; A credit of $-29.98 ha

We used 1&for over two years as a dedicated server platformLike all good companies in the beginning everything was greatAbout months ago the support started to slide downhill and the cost was no longer worth the benefits we were NOt getting out of the companyWhen we were close to deciding to separate from the company the server we were using was hit with the wannacry virus, essentially leveling our companies business overnightWe struggled hard for a few days to get our data under control and that is when we were cutoff from our server, the company is still as of this review holding domains hostage and refuses to answer our emailsWe are not likely to pay them for the server costs for the last month as we were dealing with an infected server (That they had said was secure)We changed no programs in the server before it became infected and did our best to move away from this companyWe are currently in discussions with an attorney as they now have our data (albeit infected) and our domains held hostageIf you go with this company you MUST be willing to risk the fact that one day their support may no longer please you, and worse that they may let their systems fail to protect your data (the very thing you may be paying for)The scary part is even if you want to leave they make it hard to do soTheir "autorenew" on their products mysteriously gets turned back on after you disable it, resulting in unpleasant chargesOverall they are a strong company but they concentrate on high numbers, and the customer and the performance suffers for itAs of this review we are still waiting for them to get back to us to allow us to get our data off their server and move all of our domains out of their companyBe warned that this "good deal" may be the worst IT decision you may ever make!

Very bad experience with 1and1.com 1, second year charge was very high, cannot even compensate the first year discount 2, the worst is they charge your credit card without your authorization for services you cancelled or you don't wantI had been charged a few times without my authorization after I specifically indicated that I do not authorize any continuous/automatic renew and I want authorize each individual serviceHowever, they just charge your card and collect your moneyVery bad business practice

Hello, 1and1.com charged me without my authorization for the domains I had auto-renewal turned off. All of my domain names have auto-renewal turned off, so I can decide which one to renew and which one not to at the end of the contract. But instead 1and1.com charged me for $44.97 without my authorization and permission. I had to contact my bank and they thought my card might have been compromised and blocked it right away. I contacted 1and1.com to cancel my contracts and refund the amount that was charged without authorization and permission. They canceled the 3 initial domains that were charged and instead of refunding the money back to my card, they charged it back for the other contracts in my account, again without my permission or authorization and without prior intimation. They also falsely informed me that the refund was made to my credit card but instead they refunded it back like store credits and charged it back again. Please help me get back the amount that was charged fr
