  Constance Crane 🇺🇸 (@TrackingFires) reported 3 minutes ago

  My manager has spent literally hours and hours over several days struggle with GoDaddy to fix their mistake - all tech help foreign. I have listened on speaker. Most of the reps are completely ignorant even about tech. We end up in loops of referrals one level up, and they bumble requiring the same diagnostics by us … At least they admit the tech issue is there.

  @godaddy great job with customer service that brazenly lied saying that I wouldn’t be charged 75 bucks for a domain I wanted to cancel and couldn’t because of your crappy website infrastructure telling me I couldn’t cancel it at the time on two separate occasions

  You used to pay $200 a year just to put a padlock on your own website. Then Let's Encrypt happened. In the early internet, SSL certificates were controlled by a handful of corporations. Every website had to pay them every single year or visitors would see a scary security warning and leave. DigiCert → $200 a year Comodo → $150 a year GoDaddy → $70 a year They turned basic internet security into a subscription. And millions of small websites simply could not afford it. By 2014 only 30% of the web was encrypted. Not because encryption was hard. Because it had a price tag. Then, in 2015 a group of engineers launched Let's Encrypt. Free SSL certificates for every website on earth. Automated. No credit card. No annual fee. Forever. The certificate industry laughed at them. They stopped laughing fast. One million certificates in the first year. One million every single day by 2018. One billion total by 2020. Ten million every single day today. Let's Encrypt now controls 57% of the entire SSL certificate market on earth. The web went from 30% encrypted to over 80% in under ten years. DigiCert still exists. Comodo still exists. But they lost the internet to a nonprofit that decided security should never have a price tag. The SSL industry spent 20 years building a tollbooth on the web. Let's Encrypt tore it down. For free. Forever.

  Theres not many adverts that make me want to use a product less than @GoDaddy ones. Registered 10+ domains in the last week and actively avoided using them based on that ****

  @GoDaddyHelp @GoDaddy @sh0kunin My paid subscription has been broken for 3+ months, and standard support has completely failed. Sent screenshots to an agent on 21 May who promised a next-day fix, but multiple follow-ups (25 May, 26 May, 4 June) have been ignored. Please escalate.

  @GoDaddyHelp I’m canceling everything and moving to namecheap unless you solve my email problems for no extra cost. I am a 20+ year customer and you are treating me like dog ****.

  @aakseon I have a portfolio of about 200 domains all with @Dynadot. I shop with them coz they sell my domain names too. No other registrar has sold my domain name like @Dynadot did. Godaddy is the worst one followed by name-cheap.

  @wpmodder I'm tired of hearing the same false claims that GoDaddy fixed their hosting and then logging into client websites and dealing with crazy slow dashboards and the ridiculously buggy GoDaddy Pro dashboard. I worked there when they bought media temple and they told us that was going to fix their hosting. It didn't. Their hosting remained poor and remains poor to this day. I was gonna say GoDaddy is the harbor freight of web technology companies but that wouldn't be fair to harbor freight.

  @GoDaddy @GoDaddyHelp — longtime customer here with my domain & corporate email already in my account. Tried adding a Managed WordPress Deluxe subscription today, but chat support tried to finesse me with a massive $26.99/mo. Please fix this now.

  I always like to give credit where credit is due, and I was quite impressed with GoDaddy's managed WP hosting last time I tried it (and that was years ago). With that being said, my problem with GoDaddy has always been centered around the crazy high domain pricing, predatory upsells, and awful customer service. Number one example: why is GoDaddy still selling "Full Domain Protection"? Does it seriously cost GoDaddy anything to "prevent unauthorized domain actions"? GoDaddy has great branding. GoDaddy has some great team members. GoDaddy has some great products, even. But the core business principals deployed are anti-customer. I can't fault GoDaddy for doing what makes money, I get it. But I will passionately be a "NoDaddy" until the day GoDaddy gives up these practices.

  @digijunkyard Sure. No problem. Sounds like a really interesting challenge! Kinda like the one GoDaddy (with @MichaelCyger) was running.

  @GoDaddy From my favorite host to a POS in one morning's interaction, your stupid ******* Airo support chatbot freezes and has dropped me multiple times. Your stupid phone call AI assistant can't understand English. Waiting on hold for the same bot via SMS. for a regular enquiry.

  @GoDaddyHelp @GoDaddy Another day, another runaround by GoDaddy for a problem that is re-occurring with my apps. Spent 2 hours on Monday dealing with it. They literally told me to hold for "3-5 minutes" then never returned. When I asked where the person was, I received an auto-response that the issue was closed because of inactivity. Damn, wish I could just "wish" or "ignore" problems away. Great business model. I was promised, finally, that the "backend group" would resolve and it would be fixed. I was reassured that this would happen. Here's another great feature of their help. I reached out again today. They started the same "Two Hour Hell-Hole" dance with the same stupid questions. I told them to look at the notes attached to my file. Their response? "We don't keep notes of the account". So, what are my options world?

  I am the owner of Azure subscription and tenant. After moving my verified domain from GoDaddy to NameCheap, I am now completely locked out of this subscription and tenant. I cannot log in or access any resources. I no longer need this subscription or any of its resources (already replaced) . I would like to permanently cancel and delete the entire subscription (including all associated resources, databases, Key Vaults, etc.) to close this account cleanly. @AzureSupport

  @RIPattermoore @GoDaddy A few design and messaging tweaks could make it feel more like a thriller experience than a standard author website. I'm a designer and would be happy to share some ideas or even help with a redesign if you're interested. Either way, wishing you success with the series.

  @GoDaddy I've been trying to get tech support for nearly a half hour. I'm on the phone on hold. I tried the Contact Us chat thing repeatedly and it says no one is available. Texted and no answer.

  @craylor GoDaddy hosting is leaps and bounds better than it was a decade ago. The problem is, the hosting might be good, but their support is not great, DNS kind of sucks, their "delegate access" works kind off (support actually told me to just ask the client for their password), etc. I deal with GoDaddy daily and I do not enjoy it.

  @GoDaddyHelp How long does it take for the domain transfer request to expire? The current domain holder missed the emails for the request, and therefore we would like to retry from fresh. Also, it is way too difficult to get hold of support from GD

  GoDaddy positions itself as an all-in-one website-building platform for small and medium-sized businesses. Besides domains, they also sell website builders, WordPress hosting, email, SSL, WHOIS protection, and marketing tools. GoDaddy is often cheap for the first year, then the renewal price goes up. But I don’t need any of those add-on services. So this year, I finally made up my mind and transferred my domain to Cloudflare Registrar. The price was basically cut in half. Cloudflare Registrar sells domains almost at cost. The transfer process was surprisingly straightforward. I thought GoDaddy’s terrible interface would try every possible trick to stop me from transferring out. But in the end, I just filled out a form, got the authorization code, and that was it. A domain transfer usually does not require an extra transfer fee. Your website will not go offline during the transfer process, but it usually takes at least three days to complete. After the domain transfer, the new registrar will charge you for one year of renewal upfront.

  2 days and now 45 minutes talking to reseller customer support @GoDaddyHelp to transfer registrant of a domain name within a reseller account. The rep can't figure it out, it doesn't work. @sh0kunin spend literally 1/1000th of your marketing budget to fix your BROKEN products
