I have contacted GoDaddy by phone 3 times and emailed 2 times to email addresses provided by their reps regarding billing errors for my company HRW *********** email account. 2 of the calls resulted in them promising a supervisor would call me in 1 to 2 hours which did not happen. I am requesting a refund of $287.52 to our credit card on our account for the error of double charges by GoDaddy for our 4 email addresses in 2021 and 2022. When comparing the charges for the 4 email addresses in 2020 of $102.45 and 4 email addresses in 2023 for $143.76, it appears the billing department caught their errors and made sure we were charged the correct amount in 2023. It is obvious there was a problem in GoDaddy's billing department in 2021 and 2022 by looking at the attached receipts for those years. Those are the only years going back to our GoDaddy email receipts to **** which billed 2 emails on 2 separate invoices. All of our emails always renewed at the same time and were all on the same invoice and receipt. Also, the price we were charged in those years is comparable for what ********* charges for more options than just email. It is also odd that the attached receipts printed in 2021 did not even have the email addresses shown. When I look at the receipts on GoDaddy's website now, the email addresses were added after the receipts were printed in 2021. Again it appears there were problems with their billing department during those periods.In talking to their reps over the past week regarding these errors, today I was told by ******, ********* caused the billing increase for the 2 years in dispute. I get the impression is is easier to blame ********* versus taking ownership of GoDaddy's error. Earlier this week, another rep informed me because I am a long term GoDaddy customer discounted my email plan in 2023. It is odd I get a different reason depending on who answers the phone. At one point they offered to refund 50% of the amount in dispute.

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 May 27, 2020, our customer purchased four Email Essential (EE) Office 365 accounts for one year. They received promotional pricing at that time due to it being a new product purchase.
In May of 2021 and 2022, our customers email service renewed at the standard rate as the promotional pricing had expired. Standard pricing for EE plans is currently $71.88 each before tax.
On May 12, 2023, our customer manually renewed their email accounts. They were charged $143.76 which is a fifty percent discount.
RESOLUTION:
GoDaddy upheld its agreements with our customer in good faith and honored its terms of service.
We are sorry for the confusion this has caused our customer. From time to time ********************** may offer discounts on product renewals, however, this is not our standard practice. To be clear, our customer was not overcharged or double billed for the renewals of their email service in 2021 and 2022; they were billed the standard rate. That said, we want to resolve this amicably and as a one-time courtesy, we have issued a partial refund for the 2021 and ****************************************** 2023. While future renewals may be eligible for discounts, our customer should expect to be billed at the standard rate going forward. We hope this clears up any confusion our customer may have regarding email pricing.
Thank you again for the opportunity to address the concerns presented by our customer.

Thank you for your response. I appreciate GoDaddys willingness to refund some of the billing in dispute ($143.76) to the credit card we have used for many years on the account, but am also requesting they refund the other $143.76 to the same card that was used for the payments in both years versus an instore credit on our account.
****** with GoDaddy stated in the below email she could not credit the card used for the 2021 payment, so an instore credit was provided. Per the attached receipts, I highlighted to show the same card ending in #**** was used for both years. She can provide the instore credit of $143.76 to that credit card too.

I am reaching out regarding your correspondence with the BBB.
I have submitted two refunds of $143.76 each for 2021 and 2022. The refund from 2022 will be applied to the payment method that was used. The refund from 2021 had to be applied to instore credit. It will not allow me to refund back to the payment method as the original payment method has been removed from your account. You may use the *** for renewals or new purchases. Thank you.

I have a receipt stating my domain expires in August 2023. After countless hours using their chat system, the agent I reached told me the domain expired and dropped the call. I want to transfer the domain away from Godaddy, but my domain wont show up as registered on my account so I cant get the *** authorization code.

I am writing today in regards to a dispute a charge that was on authorized by Go Daddy of $300. Unfortunately I was recently laid off and I am currently unemployed so all of my subscriptions to everything I have let expire when it comes to GoDaddy I had no clue about an auto renewal and needing to personally cancel. I tried calling several times every time I call Im on hold were on a wait for at least an hour and then when I finally get to my turn, the call shuts off I have since used the online chat which is like text however it has been unresourceful and not helpful , I can provide proof of texts that state I am no longer going with Go Daddy due to penalty fees on top of other charges when I first publish this website a year ago it was $180 which at the time seemed reasonable for the year today my credit card was charged $299. For me this is a financial deficit. I have zero income coming in right now. I was laid off very unexpectedly and my website is for a self-employed business That Im trying to get off the ground however I cannot afford $300. My concern is is that it was so easily charged and that since yesterday today is now June 13. I have been unsuccessful, navigating their website to cancel this order and or cancel subscription. This feels very wrong as a consumer , Im not asking for an apology. Im just asking that my credit card is refunded and that I am no longer working with GoDaddy using their products.

On June 4, 2022, our customer purchased our Websites + Marketing (***) site builder for a 1 year term. *** is a proprietary, do-it-yourself, template-based product to construct a website.
On June 13, 2023, per our customers account preferences, ********************** automatically renewed the product in question in good faith to honor agreements with our customer. ********************** sent renewal notices prior to expiration, including on May 29, and June 12, 2023, informing our customer the expiring item would renew in accordance with account settings unless additional action was taken. Account management is a customers responsibility.
RESOLUTION:
GoDaddy upheld its agreements with our customer in good faith and honored its terms of service.
We empathize with our customers frustration over the pricing increase from their initial purchase. GoDaddys pricing strategy is to give customers a discount in their first year when they are likely to be just starting out in their business and may not be up and running yet. After that, we ask customers to pay the fair market value for a service that helps their business be successful.
Our offices attempts to connect with our customer to refund their unwanted renewal has not been successful. We encourage our customer to cancel the product in question with the instructions we provided them and respond to our email. Once we confirm the product has been canceled, we will issue the refund.
The renewal will remain eligible for a refund for 30 days from the renewal date which is July 13, 2023.
Thank you again for the opportunity to address the concerns presented by our customer.

Back for yet another issue with Godaddy. In trying to completely rid myself of their service, the last product I was promised a refund for was the remaining years left on a pre-payment of a 5 year privacy term.After all the previous issues, headaches and time wasted with Godaddy, it was time to pull completely away.I was promised the refund back to my credit card, as I wish to no longer be a Godaddy customer. The *** received approval from management to do so and they confirmed the last digits of my credit card on file and confirmed that I would see the refund in 5-7 business days. I immediately got an email receipt confirming the refund and as I scrolled all the way to the bottom, it says it was issued as a store credit. (please see attached .pdf of email).Since then, I have called back numerous times and have spent upwards of an hour on hold being told each time that they fixed the problem & the refund is going to be returned to my card.My account page is empty (please see the attached screenshot where there is no store credit listed or anything listed) and I have a recording of todays conversation, again, being told that the refund is being issued to my credit card.Once I hung up with todays ***, I received the exact same refund email stating it is being issued as a store credit. (please see attached pdf of this email).This last *** also sent me an email confirming our conversation (as notes were on file that the refund back to my cc was approved) that the money was to go back to my credit card (please see attached pdf of this email).Ive been chasing my tail for the past 11+ days and would appreciate your help for the promised return of my $67.76Cdn issued back to my *****

On June 12, 2023, our customer called our care team and requested a refund for the time remaining on their domain registration. As a one-time exception to our Refund Policy, they were refunded for the remaining time on their domain, which was processed as an In-Store credit (ISC).

GoDaddy recently purchased MediaTemple. I was NOT able to login and cancel my account and ********************** never responded to my inquiries for help in doing so. When they transferred to GoDaddy, I had no idea until I checked my banking account and saw unauthorized charges. I only recently was able to get into the GoDaddy attempt to contact the customer service. ********************** charged me $251.97 for services that I DID NOT AUTHORIZE! I never even signed up for an account. This is theft. When I brought this to their attention, they refused to close my account and give me a refund for the products/services that I DID NOT AUTHORIZE. They're refusing to give me my money back when I never agreed to pay for these products in the first place. I left GoDaddy years ago because they have a history of stealing from and s******* over their customers. Now, against my will, they have done it again.All I want is my money back and for my account to be closed. That's it. But, they keep refusing to do so. Attached is a screenshot of the unauthorized charges and a PDF of the discussion between me and a GoDaddy rep, who refused to help me.This is theft. It should be treated as such. Again, I never authorized the creation of any account with ********************** and I certainly never authorized the products/services NOR the charges they stole from my bank account. I'll be contacting my bank in addition to this to block all attempts to steal from my again by GoDaddy.Order numbers (which I did not order) were:********** - $99.99 ********** - $75.99 ********** - $75.99 They refunded order ********** for $99.99 but currently REFUSE to refund the other $151.98, which, again, was never authorized in the first place. It's also important to note that their rates are HIGHER than Media Temple as well, which was also not agreed to. I'm contacting my bank for a refund, though this may not happen.

On May 2, 2023, our customer's domain name and server-hosted content were migrated from Media Temple account to a ********************** account. This move was made because Media Temple (a GoDaddy Company) was being shut down.
Subsequently, on May 8 and June 8, 2023, the GoDaddy server hosting our customer's content was renewed using their previous Media Temple account settings. After each renewal, an email notification was sent to our customer.
On June 11, 2023, our customer contacted **********************'s ************* team and requested a refund for both server renewals. At that time, they were correctly advised regarding GoDaddy's Refund Policy.
RESOLUTION:

On June 14, 2023, this office connected with our customer and advised them that we had been notified that the customer had processed chargebacks against their server renewal transactions. As these chargebacks withdrew payments to GoDaddy, we suspended their server.
As GoDaddy will not contest these chargebacks, their server has been canceled, and the associated funds have been returned to their financial institution. Funds returned after a chargeback may take up to ninety-five days to reflect with their financial institution.

My business web site is being built by Godaddy, and I have a serious complaint about the department that handles doing updates in that, even with the smallest request for updates, they seem to have great difficulty understanding what needs to be done! On this most recent update I submitted that simply involves updating 2 pages on the site, although I gave them a word document to explain the changes, along with 2 slides that show what the pages look like after the updates, they sent email asking for clarification on what needs to be done. I am attaching complaint letter I intended to send to Godaddy Corporate, and to Godaddy *************** to let them know they have inept employees that need to be replaced, however, my web search did not find email addresses for those offices. A found a help link that connected me to a Godaddy rep where they only do things via text, and they sent me a text to ask what needed. However, rather than simply providing the email addresses, they wanted to know why I wanted the addresses. After I explained I simply needed to report and issue I am having with the ************************** that does update, and that I wanted to present the issue to Godaddy otherwise I would forward this issue to BBB. At some point he gave me his email address ********************************** so I could forward the complaint to him which I did. I told him he could simply reply to my email since he now understands details of the issue but he replied saying they don't do anything via email, just went round and round! I came to realize here is another useless member of that team! I am attaching the complaint write-up I wanted to present to Godaddy so they know they need to make some changes so people good qualified technicians to do web page updates, which includes details I presented they simply could not understand, and there was no way to make it any simpler!

GoDaddy Payments is processing payments on accounts not approved and our e-commerce store lost sales and customers because of GoDaddy. And in addition, GoDaddy is charging processing fees. GoDaddy offers a payment service for WooCommerce, and we liked the option so we signed in, however then we received an email stating the account wasn't approved.

Why choose a BBB Accredited Business?BBB Business Profiles may not be reproduced for sales or promotional purposes.
BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.
When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.
BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.
As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
