On October 9, 2021, our customer purchased Website Security for two years via an online transaction.

RESOLUTION:
GoDaddy upheld its agreements with our customer in good faith and honored its terms of service.
While we empathize with our customer's frustration, the transactions in question are well beyond refund eligibility.? We encourage our customer to review and manage their account settings to prevent further unwanted renewals.

Initially i bought my domain for my personal website with you guys and I had my hosting with Bluehost A couple of months ago I was persuaded by ****** ******* to switch hosting from Bluehost to Godaddy with the promise of the great customer service that I know I usually get. I explained my concerns about switching my other two domains and the issues it would cause with my developers etc. (hosting, websites, wp etc) ****** assured me he will take me from beginning to end if I purchased the ** packages and he mentioned he will also waive the domain transfer fees which it was about ''$110'' he told me it was the perfect timing (around September ) too because my yearly subscription with bluehost was about to end in Oct 1st.****** assured me all the transfers were successful and that everything was set up to be now good with godaddy (my website *************** ) and I checked this around end of September. Around October, I let my ******** account not renew, thinking everything was working. The ** files were not transferred because I trusted ******. Around October 5th, a prospect told me we were not a legitimate company because our website was down. Website down? I checked, and *************** was not active. Long story short, I had to pay Bluehost again to reinstate everything because it was at the negotiation table to close a deal. ****** rarely returned an email, so I contacted the chat support, two times they told me to submit the refund request form to get an exception since I have been a customer for a while, I never got the service, never got the websites were never ONLINE. now godaddy is holding my domain HOSTAGE for 3 years.

I am filing this complaint regarding GoDaddy's failure to fulfill my request to delete my account and their lack of communication despite multiple follow-ups.On three separate occasions, I contacted GoDaddy to request that my account be deleted. During my last interaction on December 22, 2024, I was assured that my account would be deleted by the end of that day. However, as of today, my account remains active.On December 25, 2024, I emailed GoDaddy's Grievance Team to follow up on this issue, but I did not receive a response. I sent a second follow-up email several days later, again with no acknowledgment or resolution.This situation is highly frustrating and raises serious concerns about GoDaddy's customer service and compliance with my request. I have made every effort to resolve this matter directly with GoDaddy but have been met with silence, leaving me no choice but to escalate this issue.I am requesting immediate action from GoDaddy to:1. Delete my account as requested.2. Provide written confirmation that my account has been deleted.This complaint is filed in good faith with the hope that GoDaddy will resolve this matter promptly. I look forward to hearing from them soon.Thank you for your assistance in facilitating a resolution.Business Response

Upon conducting business with GoDaddy, our customer acknowledged and accepted our agreements, found at ***************************************************.
On October 12, 2023, our customer set up ********************** Payments in their account. ********************** Payments is our built-in payment gateway, which allows them to accept online and in-person payments from their customers within safe and secure transactions.
On December 14, 2024, our customer contacted our *********** via online chat for assistance with closing their GoDaddy account. Unfortunately, the GoDaddy Payments product was stuck in an active status, preventing the account from being closed. During this interaction, a case was created to have GoDaddys developers remove the product from the account on behalf of our customer.
On January 15, 2025, the ********************** Payments product was deleted from their account.
RESOLUTION:
GoDaddy upheld its agreements with our customer in good faith and honored its terms of service.
As with all service providers, GoDaddy had unexpected technical issues and worked quickly to resolve them and minimize any impact on our customer.
If they wish to close their account fully, they can review the steps in the following article: **************************************************************

Dear Jenn,
Thank you for your response. However, I am extremely disappointed with how GoDaddy has handled this matter and the omissions in your reply.
First, your response fails to acknowledge my multiple attempts to resolve this issue with GoDaddys customer service before filing a ******************** complaint. I contacted GoDaddy three times requesting account deletion, and on December 22, 2024, I was specifically assured that my account would be deleted by the end of the day. That promise was not fulfilled.
Furthermore, after my account remained active, I emailed GoDaddys Grievance Team twice (on December 25 and January 9th), yet I never received a response. Ignoring customer emails is not an acceptable practice for any reputable company.
Additionally, it is clear that GoDaddy only resolved the technical issue after I filed a BBB complaint. If I had not taken that step, my account would likely still be in limbo, with no resolution in sight. This does not reflect good customer serviceit is a failure to take responsibility and properly assist customers in a timely manner.
I hope my experience can serve as constructive feedback for improving customer support processes and ensuring better communication with customers in similar situations. Fortunately, I was finally able to close my account, or at least I received confirmation that it has been closed.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
***** ********

GoDaddy purchased a secondary company, upon which it used the information from that company to automatically sign me up for a new service I did not authorize. Upon discovery that GoDaddy had been charging me for a service I did not use, did not have access to, did not have an account associated with it, and did not have with the company that it acquired, I was refunded one month of the 12 month timeline that I was paying for this service before I could figure out what it was. I was told that the terms of service would only allow for a one month refund, however I did not sign any terms of service for that product with GoDaddy.Business Response

Upon conducting business with GoDaddy, our customer acknowledged and accepted our agreements, found at ***************************************************.
GoDaddy acquired Media Temple in 2013, but they remained a separate business and operated independently.
From June 7, 2023, to September 12, 2024, our customer was paying for an Email Bundle, which included their email services and a cPanel hosting plan at no cost.
GoDaddy sent multiple notifications to our customer, including on June 19, 2024, to inform them that their email services would be migrated from Media Temple to GoDaddy on September 26, 2024. The migration was completed on September 26, 2024. At that time, our customer would be responsible for separate email and hosting renewals, should they wish to continue utilizing the services.
On October and November 12, 2024, our customer's hosting plan was automatically renewed in accordance with their account settings. On November 12, 2024, they contacted our Care team to inquire about recent ********. During the interaction, their website hosting plan was cancelled and a refund for the most recent renewal was provided.
RESOLUTION:
GoDaddy upheld its agreements with our customer in good faith and honored its terms of service.
Our office has since contacted our customer to discuss their concerns. As they had not used the hosting plan, as a gesture of goodwill we have also refunded the October 12, 2024, renewal transaction.

I have had a website with GoDaddy for nearly fifteen years. When searched in my area, my website was the first to appear in the search engine. This past year my business has dropped off significantly and I couldn't figure out why. When I pulled up my website a month ago, I couldn't find it. I reached out to GoDaddy and was told five different reasons that my website had been dropped . I was told I never had a website with them.. I was told I didn't pay.. I was told they didn't know because they could see the payment was automatically withdrawn every year.. I was told the money was for email enhancement (I've never ordered that or changed anything on my account). I was told they couldn't help me any further because their records don't go back that far.I have attached copies of my auto payments made since 2018. I can get more if needed. This has significantly affected my business. Also, it took years for me to become number one on the search engine.Business Response

Upon conducting business with GoDaddy, our customer acknowledged and accepted our agreements, which can be found at: ***************************************************.
On August 29, 2012, our customer purchased a Personal website Builder via the GoDaddy website. That plan was renewed annually, most recently on August 29, 2023. Their plan was also converted to GoDaddy's Website and ***************** (W+M) during this time.
On August 30, 2024, per their account preferences, ********************** attempted to automatically renew the W+M plan in good faith to honor agreements with our customer, but their financial institution declined payment. In addition, GoDaddy proactively sent multiple notices pre- and post-expiration to our customer, informing them that their website was at risk of cancellation unless additional action was taken.
On January 6, 2025, our customer contacted **********************'s ************* team to inquire about their W+M plan; they were correctly advised regarding its cancellation and that the content was no longer recoverable.
RESOLUTION:
GoDaddy upheld its agreements with our customer in good faith and honored its terms of service.
While GoDaddy cannot recover the content associated with our customer's website due to the time that has elapsed since its cancelation. We value them, and as a one-time token of appreciation, we have provided them with one year of W+M, at no cost, though they will be responsible for future renewals.

GoDaddys continued response that my financial institution refused payment makes no sense at all.

Thank you for the opportunity to address our customers additional concerns.
We stand by our previous response. Our customers Website and ***************** (W+M) was canceled for non-payment on August 30. 2024. Before its cancellation, multiple pre- and post-expiration notifications were sent to them, advising them that their website was at risk of cancellation unless additional action was taken.
We cannot recover the content associated with their website because of the time elapsed since its cancelation until they contacted our Care Team.

It is not one year of FREE website. As I have stated previously and provided proof of, payment has been automatically withdrawn from my account every year. I have no idea why my site was cancelled but it was obviously an error on the part of GoDaddy.
I want my website back up immediately and to be escalated back to the number one position that I was previously in on the search engine.
In addition, I want two years before payment is expected again, since I've made two years of payments during the time my site has obviously been down.

During a recent interaction with GoDaddy customer service representative, *** ******, I experienced profoundly unprofessional conduct. Ms. ****** initiated the call with a demonstrably patronizing and condescending tone, engaging in abhorrently argumentative behavior and employing deceptive "bait-and-switch" tactics to obstruct my escalation to a managerial representative. This interaction is emblematic of a larger, systemic issue with GoDaddy's billing practices, which consistently involve charges for products lacking itemized cost breakdowns. This pattern of behavior suggests a problematic organizational culture within GoDaddy, where such conduct is either tolerated or actively encouraged.Business Response

On November 7th I purchased a new website from go daddy. This site was to be built for me by go daddy for my business. The primary function I needed was the ability for people to pay me from my website when signing up for my live streaming classes. The website went live just before the new year. From the start credit card payments were not being accepted. I spent two weeks contacting customer support / website design / payments / WordPress / Inbound sales support, etc. no one could fix the problem. I ended up on an endless loop of phone calls, being on hold, transferred, being told they would get back to me in 1 -2 days and even 72 hours, but no one has. I have to keep calling and getting on the same treadmill of different departments thinking the other one can fix it. I just want my full refund and go back to my basic website. Please no more excuses. Thank you I just spoke with a gentleman who said he could republish my old website, but could not issue a refund, for that he would have to transfer me again to website design Over two hours on the phone! They are now telling me that a refund can't be issued because 30 days had passed since I purchased the website. The website did not go live until late December, and there was no way to know the website did not work until it went live! A refund request was issued and someone should contact me in 5 days! This seems pretty unacceptable,Business Response

Thank you for the opportunity to address our customers additional concerns.
We stand by our previous response and are declining our customers request for Out-of-Policy refunds, as account preferences, including renewal settings, are a customers responsibility. Furthermore, all future refunds will be processed in accordance with GoDaddys Refund Policy.
Thank you again for the opportunity to address the additional concerns presented by our customer.
