      Thank you for the opportunity to address our customer's concerns.

      Upon conducting business with GoDaddy, our customer acknowledged and accepted our agreements, found at ***************************************************.

      On June 28, 2025, our customer established ********************** Payments in their account. ********************** payments is our built-in payment gateway, which allows our customers to take secure debit and credit card payments through their website or in person.

      GoDaddy takes customer security and our commitment to preventing fraud seriously. Between July 3, and July 7, 2025, our customer processed transactions through ********************** Payments, which were flagged for review by our Verification Team. As a result, their payouts were disabled until our customer provided requested documentation to verify their eligibility to utilize GoDaddy Payments.

      Our customer was unable to provide sufficient documentation and subsequently, their account was suspended. Our Verification Team provided our customer with option to either refund the transactions or place the funds in reserve for a 90-day period to mitigate potential chargeback activity. More information detailing GoDaddys review process can be found here: *************************************************************************************************************************************************

      RESOLUTION:

      GoDaddy upheld its agreements with our customer in good faith and honored its terms of service.

      While we empathize with our customers frustration, ********************** has a responsibility to ensure the safety and security of both merchants and customers using our platforms. This is especially true when GoDaddy Payments is utilized.

      Our customer has chosen to refund the transactions back to their customers original payment methods. We ask that they allow 3-5 days for the financial institutions to process this transaction.

      Thank you again for the opportunity to address the concerns presented by our customer.

      Last year I had the same issue.

      Thank you for the opportunity to address our customer's concerns.

      Upon conducting business with GoDaddy, our customer acknowledged and accepted our agreements, which can be found at ***************************************************.

      On December 13, 2022, our customer purchased a Websites + Marketing Basic (W+M) plan for a one-year term via the GoDaddy website. W+M is GoDaddy's proprietary, do-it-yourself, template-based platform that enables customers to build and manage their websites. This plan has been renewed annually per their account preferences, most recently on December 8, 2024. 

      RESOLUTION:
      GoDaddy upheld its agreements with our customer in good faith and honored its terms of service.

      While we appreciate our customer's feedback regarding our service levels, the website associated with their W+M plan is not currently available. This is a direct result of the Nameservers associated with it being set incorrectly. Additionally, since their domain is not registered with GoDaddy, it is their responsibility to update the Nameservers. If they have any questions regarding this, they can contact GoDaddy's ************* Team. Details can be found at this link: **************************************************

      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and after 2 days finally engaged a godaddy.com tech (***) representative who was able to assist me in the unblocking of my website and therefore consider this complaint resolved for now until the expired contract in December 2025 until which which time I will research and explore an alternative host that does not require over 48 hours to resolve technical difficulties.

      My domain with GoDaddy was set to auto-renew, but the payment failed due to a declined charge from my bank. The following day, I immediately contacted GoDaddy support and paid the reinstatement fee. I was told everything was in order.On July 1st at 8:26 PM, I followed up and was told the domain would be restored within 2448 hours. I followed up again on July 2nd and was told it was now a high priority. On July 3rd, I was told the issue would absolutely be resolved by Monday, July 7th, now citing a 34 business day ************ is Monday at 4:00 PM, and the issue is still unresolved. I have contacted GoDaddy five times about this. Each time, I am told the same generic responsethat the issue is being worked onwith no real progress or ownership. My domain is tied to my email server, and I have been without email access since June 29th, causing major disruption to my personal and professional communications, including client interactions and time-sensitive logins.Despite multiple reassurances and escalations, no proactive communication or resolution has occurred. I have transcripts and receipts that confirm my payment and efforts to resolve this issue on my end. GoDaddy has failed to uphold their responsibility and continues to offer only empty promises. I am now requesting:- Immediate reinstatement of the domain - A refund of the reinstatement fee - A formal apology for the ongoing disruption - Assurance of corrective action to prevent this from happening to others This experience has been unacceptable, and I am filing this complaint to seek accountability and resolution.

      Thank you for the opportunity to address our customer's concerns.

      Upon conducting business with GoDaddy, our customer acknowledged and accepted our agreements, which can be found at ***************************************************.

      On May 26, 2025, per our customer's account preferences, ********************** automatically renewed two domain names. Before this renewal, GoDaddy sent multiple email notices informing them that the expiring domains would renew based on their account settings unless they took action. Account management is a customer's responsibility.  

      On June 30, 2025, our customer's financial institution initiated a chargeback for the renewal, reversing the payment made to GoDaddy, and we repossessed the domain names.

      On July 1, 2025, our customer contacted **********************'s ************* team and paid the cost of renewing one of the previously canceled domains, along with a processing fee, to offset the fees associated with the chargeback.

      RESOLUTION:
      GoDaddy upheld its agreements with our customer in good faith and honored its terms of service.

      We thank our customer for their candid feedback and are happy to advise them that the domain name they paid to recover has been restored to their account.

      We also respectfully decline their request to have the processing fee associated with their chargeback recovery refunded. 

      Thank you again for the opportunity to address the concerns presented by our customer.

      My credit card reader that I received from GoDaddy malfunctioned and charged my customer three times. I refunded two of the transactions but am still being charged the transaction fees for the two other transactions. I spoke with a representative and they refused to assist me and refused to send me to a supervisor when I asked multiple times.

      Thank you for the opportunity to address our customer's concerns. 

      Upon conducting business with GoDaddy, our customer acknowledged and accepted our agreements, found at *********************************************************;

      We understand our customer experienced an issue with their ********************** Payments card reader that resulted in a customer of theirs being charged three times for a single transaction. While our customer was able to refund the duplicate charges to their customer, they were seeking reimbursement of the transaction fees associated with those refunded transactions. 

      Initially, our customer was informed that transaction fees are non-refundable once transactions are settled, which is our standard policy.  

      RESOLUTION:  

      GoDaddy upheld its agreements with our customer in good faith and honored its terms of service. 

      Upon further review of this situation and the technical issue with the card reader, a member of our GoDaddy Payments team attempted to contact our customer on July 11, 2025, and has submitted a request to credit the transaction fees in question.  We have also recommended that our customer update their app to the latest version to help prevent similar issues in the future. 

      We regret that our customer's request to speak with a supervisor was not properly handled and have taken steps to address this experience internally.   

      Thank you again for the opportunity to address the concerns presented by our customer. ********************** strives to offer the best service levels in the industry.

      I am a longtime GoDaddy customer whose hosting account expired while I was hospitalized with a chronic illness. Due to my medical condition, I was unable to access my email or account during that time to address the expiration. When I recovered and tried to restore service, I was told I had to pay $149.99 to regain access.I explained my medical hardship and that I am on a limited income, but was told the fee was mandatory. This policy feels unfair and unreasonable given my years of timely payments and the extraordinary circumstances.I am requesting a refund or credit of the $149.99 because:As a loyal customer, I believe flexibility should have been extended in light of my documented medical emergency.I was not given sufficient notice or a fair opportunity to prevent the termination of service.The sudden and steep restoration fee appears arbitrary and punitive rather than a reasonable cost.Under UCC *****, unconscionable contract terms, including excessive fees, may be unenforceable.The FTC Act (15 U.S.C. 45) prohibits unfair or deceptive practices, and hidden or disproportionate fees imposed without clear notice may violate these principles.State consumer protection laws also discourage excessive or unfair pricing, especially during emergencies.I have been a faithful customer despite my limited income and was dealing with serious medical issues beyond my control. The $149.99 fee has caused financial hardship. I respectfully request that GoDaddy issue a refund or account credit for the restoration fee and consider adopting more compassionate policies for customers facing documented emergencies.Thank you for your understanding and prompt resolution of this matter.

      Upon conducting business with GoDaddy, our customer acknowledged and accepted our agreements, found at ***************************************************.
      On May 18, 2025, our customer contacted our Care Support team and paid to reinstate their hosting plan and website.
      GoDaddy takes weekly full backups and nightly incremental backups of our server environments. To restore our customers individual website, a ********************** server administrator would need to provision a new and different server, restore the weekly full backup, and then the nightly backups incrementally to the time of requested restoration. Once the server has been restored to the correct point in time, our server administrator would then access the server and make copies of our customers website files. They would then upload these copies to our customers current hosting account. This process is costly in both time and manual effort. To cover these costs, GoDaddy charges a nominal fee of $150.
      RESOLUTION:
      GoDaddy upheld its agreements with our customer in good faith and honored its terms of service.
      We empathize with our customers situation and have provided a one-time courtesy refund of the hosting restore fee.

      Dear GoDaddy Support,I am writing to formally express my concern and request immediate clarification regarding a domain I previously registered through GoDaddy. The domain in question is:nwmodelmgmt I had understood that I had secured the rights to this domain and was not notified of any expiration, failed renewal, or transfer. To my knowledge, I did not approve any change of ownership or relinquish control of the domain. I recently discovered that the domain has apparently been sold or transferred to another party.Please provide:1. A detailed account of the domain's renewal and expiration history.2. Any notices sent regarding its expiration or transfer.3. The current registrar and registrant on file.4. Whether there is still any option for redemption or reinstatement.If this was due to an internal error or system failure, I respectfully request that the domain be restored to me immediately. If the domain was transferred or sold without proper process or authorization, I expect a full investigation and support in recovering my domain.I am prepared to escalate this issue to ***** if necessary, but I hope it can be resolved directly and promptly through your team.Thank you in advance for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your response within the next 48 hours.Sincerely, **

      On June 26, 2023, our customer purchased the domain name in question via GoDaddy's Expired Domain and Auction. 

      On May 27, 2024, the domain name expired in our customer's account. According to their account preferences, ********************** attempted to automatically renew the domain name in good faith to honor the agreements with them. However, their financial institution declined the payments. Multiple email notifications were sent to them before and after the domain's expiration to inform them that action was required, as account management is a customer's responsibility. 

      On August 1, 2024, the domain was canceled from our customer's account due to non-payment. Our records indicate they have had no contact with our Care Staff after the removal of the domain in question.

      On July 4, 2025, our customer contacted **********************'s ************* Team regarding the status of this domain. At that time, they were properly advised that the domain was not recoverable and registered through another Registrar. 

      RESOLUTION:
      GoDaddy upheld its agreements with our customer in good faith and honored its terms of service.

      We appreciate our customer's candid feedback, and while we empathize with them, the domain followed the normal expiration life cycle, as described in the GoDaddy Help article which can be found at this link: *******************************************************************************.

      Thank you again for the opportunity to address the concerns presented by our customer.

      Kindest regards,

      Purchased hosting renewal from GoDaddy. They offered, and I accepted, a different new plan. From that day forward, my website was under continual malware attacks and offline more than it was on. After months of failed repair attempts, it became apparent GoDaddy was unable to properly host my website. I lost customers, revenue, and irreplaceable contacts and moved my site to WordPress Hosting, and it has been working properly for weeks now.

      Business Response

      Date: 07/07/2025

      Upon conducting business with GoDaddy, our customer acknowledged and accepted our agreements, which can be found at ***************************************************.

      On March 11, 2025, our customer contacted *********************** ************* Team via online chat to discuss purchasing a new Basic Managed WordPress plan to replace their existing plan. During this interaction, they purchased a new *** plan for a five-year term.

      On March 26, 2025, they contacted our Care Team by phone and were provided with a five-year renewal of their original *** plan. The cost of the *** plan they purchased on March 11, 2025, had fifty-eight months removed and was refunded as an in-store credit; that plan remains active. Later that day, another GoDaddy Care representative used this in-store credit to renew their original *** plan for an additional five years.

      On June 26, 2025, our customer requested to be refunded for the cost of their five-year renewal, and this request was declined per GoDaddys Refund Policy, which can be found at this link: ***************************************************/refund-policy 

      RESOLUTION:
      GoDaddy upheld its agreements with our customer in good faith and honored its terms of service.

      We appreciate their feedback regarding our service levels.

      Furthermore, as a one-time exception to GoDaddys Refund Policy, we are prepared to provide our customer with a prorated refund for the time remaining on the five-year renewal of their *** plan. If our customer wishes to accept this offer, they must cancel the *** and notify this office by emailing us at *********************************************************************** before July 31, 2025. Instructions on deleting products in their GoDaddy account can be found at this link: ******************************************************************************************************;

      Thank you again for the opportunity to address the concerns presented by our customer.
