I had to call multiple times to get a very basic email issue resolved. Your support kept sending me to other vendors when all you needed to do was check a box. Either poor training, poor management, or both.

Terrible hosting services
March 18, 2024

Terrible hosting services. My website has been unsecured since I had it open. Email doesn't load in time so I've missed many opportunities. Worst hosting platform. None of the techs can map me through to identify the issue.

I've had a number of issues that prevented me from being able to access/use my website that have taken days or weeks to resolve. I'm currently dealing with another that is now into day 3.

I'm at the point of renewing and I'm really quite irritated about the lack of transparency about what it will cost (it doesn't say in the dashboard and I've not had an email recently about it (or since I asked for my plan to be changed). I also don't understand why there's such a lack of control (e.g. To change plans etc.) I have through my online portal. It's disgraceful that an online service gives so little control and transparency over these things in 2024.

You charged my over $500 for a inexpensive website. I cant fathom how my costs have gone up from $60 to 500. Absurd. Im going to be switching to another provider.

Logging in has become a real pain
March 18, 2024

Logging in has become a real pain. You keep changing things! Now have to use a user id,,,used too be able to login with email. A little while back your password field keys wanting to set a new password rather than use for logging in. All very odd.

Also, is really annoying having the popup trying to sell me some upgrade I don't want - keep having to click 'continue to account manager'

All the extra steps to log in to the platform and skipping all the buying options is getting very annoying.
