Nihaal Rajput (@urstrulynihaal) reportedHey @GoDaddy, @GoDaddyHelp Iβm migrating my WordPress site to VPS but forgot to take a backup. Your support says I must renew hosting just to access my own data. I only need a backup because it'll deleted tomorrow. Can you please help with temporary access or recovery? π

A. Johnson (@sequinsandsales) reportedSomeone stole my website, is using all of the content EYE created over 8 years, using images I PAID photographers to take and/or made myself, and neither @Cloudflare or @GoDaddy will help. Iβve filed multiple copyright claims with both companies. THEY DONT CARE.

TJ | Aftermath Z: Red Pine Lake ππ§ββοΈ (@AftermathZGame) reported@HornyCollective @GoDaddy @GoDaddyHelp No idea, all night I spoke to their team for them to end it with, we are going in circles goodbye. Apparently because their staff answered my question with a yes but said they were answering for something I didn't ask, that seems to count. I asked if I kept what I had built already, and they said yes and that I keep the domain, they treat that as fine, despite me asking specifically about what I had built, which is not a term you use for owning a domain but for building a website. I think they nuked it before I had even had clarity and then want to charge me a restoration fee + 1 full year upfront for what I just cancelled. On top of that I have to wait a week for the refund which is money they should never have taken.

Jacob (@JZivanDesign) reported@joshdholtz @RevenueCat @cursor_ai I need your talk for emotional support ant to justify the recurring charges for empty sites that have been supporting GoDaddy and Cloudflare for many years.

Rodolfo Gonzalez (@rudy4world) reported@GoDaddy Three days trying to assign one Microsoft 365 seat. GoDaddy deleted the account, recreated it with a typo, put the wrong license on the wrong domain. A 10-minute job wasted three full days. You sell SERVICE, not a product β

Rissa (@clazzell) reported@GoDaddy #Airo is a scam. Credits run out before the site can be properly designed with active links. Customer service is awful this year too! Get it together!

Felix Guo (@felix_guo_daxia) reported@itsaaroshi Fr, straight honest answer: Cloudflare for DNS, management, and zero sketchy upsells.Porkbun & Cloudflare all the way.Porkbun for cheap, clean domain pricing + free privacy. Namecheap mid, Dynadot solid but UI clunky.Never touch GoDaddy (scammy upsells, overpriced). No cringe hidden fees, no forced add-ons, just simple domains.

TJ | Aftermath Z: Red Pine Lake ππ§ββοΈ (@AftermathZGame) reported@OutoftheboxP @GoDaddy @GoDaddyHelp Basically I got the website looking as I wanted and turned off auto renew for just the marketing package. The package fees were very high and after being overcharged previously I wanted a break. they charged me anyway so I raised a complaint as I turned off renewal. I asked them before the refund went through if I would still have what I had already build and they said yes and that I still owned the domain. I check my site a few minutes later and it was gone, everything. I got in touch with support again and they checked after I explained what happened, and said they would return it and it would take 90 minutes. I checked back an hour later, same chat open. Yet the agent was someone new and they had no idea what was going on. They then checked the wrong thing and said I would need to pay for a year upfront to get it back up and they would design it... a site I made they would now design having never seen it. So after that 180 and me showing them where I was told I would keep it and that it would be restored they lowered the amount by about 5 dollars and sent parts of the transcript to help their argument whilst leaving out the important parts. They acknowledge I was told the wrong info but that's it, they don't want to make it right. I accept I could have asked for more clearer info but I was already flustered at now waiting a week for a refund and it being evening.

Blue (@Blued133) reported@GoDaddyHelp I spent 1 hour yesterday chatting with one of your employee to help me find fix the MANY glitches that I am facing when writing a blog on your website. Someone was supposed to reach out - it's been now 24 hours and nothing has been done
-
Artem Russakovskii (@ArtemR) reported@austinginder @DotWeekly Mistakes happen. But the processes they put in place and the lack of ownership of the issue despite the critical status is unforgivable, @GoDaddy. It's the nightmare of being an insignificant grain of sand in a giant company and the feeling of powerlessness. I feel like that about Google sometimes too.

Brady Nord (@bradynord) reportedLife is wild. I was just reflecting about how 2 years ago I was managing millions of websites at @GoDaddy. Being consumed everyday with customer support, PHP and WordPress versions, security, etc. Now I spend all day at @weavdotcom thinking even more about customer support, AI agents and RAG systems.

John Nigroα΅α΅ (@jn) reported from New Braunfels, Texas@Darcymason Ill add.. not an open source CMS or static html, or similar, NOT YOUR CONTENT. Dont RENT your own content from piece of **** wix, godaddy, shopify, showit, etc. It is a pain in the *** to get it off their walled gardens

Willem DaFlow (@lovethisplan) reportedIf you told me that @godaddy customer service was an AI bot designed to get me to off myself in frustration, I'd believe you completely.

DotComs.co (@MetaverseWorld) reportedWhy would anyone use @GoDaddy anymore??? $23.19 .com renewals!? Or $240/year for the discount domain club? HIGHWAY ROBBERY! I called to cancel yesterday, and my long time (15+ years personal account manager, Theresa, who never even knows who I am) tells me the same thing everytime..."I haven't spoken to you in ages." Yes that's the problem Theresa, what the hell have I been paying for for 15 years? You've made me zero sales. Every other registry has $10 renewals and yours are $23 for zero benefit. GOODBYE GODADDY! If it wasn't for your marketing, you'd be out of business!

Ravindra (@ravindra5k) reportedI worked at GoDaddy for 8 years, and I was always proud of the level of customer support we provided as a team. Today, I contacted BigRock support to request a refund for my clientβs Virtual Private Server, which was purchased for 36 months and is still within the 30-day refund window. When I first reached out, the support team did not initiate the refund on chat. Instead, they said a ticket had been raised and that the backend team would process the refund. The next day, when I followed up, I was told it was no longer eligible under the refund policy. This has been a very disappointing support experience. What concerns me even more is the lack of a proper escalation path through chat support. Customers should have access to clear escalation channels when facing billing or refund issues. I strongly hope BigRock improves its customer support process. @BigRock #bigrock #Godaddy #webdev
