      I was contacted on Jan 19, 26, and 31, 2023 by MainStreet Host soliciting business to improve my website. On Jan 31, 2023 I agreed. I messed up and waited until after I agreed to check on the business. I found numerous complaints about never getting what you pay for and not being able to get money back. I had paid $1299.99 down and they were going to take 3 more payments every 90 days until the balance of $4000.00 was paid. On February 1, 2023, I sent the "account manager", Cheryl M*******, an email advising that I wanted a full refund and did not wish to have their services. She immediately called me, and agreed to refund my full payment. I sent an email after that phone call, but never received a response. I have attempted to call, but do not get a return call and cannot get anyone to admit that I paid.
      I have filed a dispute with my credit card company and provided them with the emails and phone call log. Everyone should be ware of this company! Read the reviews and pay attention to them!!

      canceled the client’s account on February 1 and confirmed that he would get a
      full refund during our phone call.   The client’s credit
      card was refunded on February 9, 2023. We apologize that we didn’t clearly
      communicate that it can take up to 10 business days to reimburse the account
      when the client canceled.  We consider
      this issue resolved.

      Better Business Bureau: 

      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me. I did receive a refund.
