I transferred my domain name and email to web.com in October 2023. I built a website using their templates. Paid them to transfer my domain name over to them to get a website up and running. After 4 or days, we were finally able to get it running.Periodically since then I have had people tell me that they were not able to access my website. But only certain people. I called web.com on Tuesday of last week. He's told me that my website wasn't able to be seen from safari web browser.. And that they needed to update DNS records in order for people on safari to be able to see. The next day I was contacted by another Customer of mine who wasn't able to see my website. I asked her what wet browser she was using she was using chrome. I called web.com again.The person I spoke to on the phone told me that. Even though they see an issue on their end, they are never going to tell us. Or remedy at a we figure out that there is an issue in contact them. So it was something that day already knew about but since I didn't. They didn't do anything to take care of it. My email has also been often on not working for a while. I was not able to send to any ****** gmail users. I don't know if that has been fixed or not. I have contacted web dot com seven times in the last six days, three times for today.. As of right now my email is completely down and unusable. I do not have an e t a of when I will be able to use my email that I pay for at this time. Since October. I have been on the phone with them or on their web chat thirty plus times. I am frustrated and embarrassed because every time I send a customer to my website there is an issue. I am paying them for something that I am not receiving. And I realize I am only a 1 person business and I am not a big corporation but I am still paying them money every month for something that they are not providing me. I have asked them for some kind of resolution. And for my website in my email to just workInitial Complaint

I had a web hosting package with A Small Orange that was set to renew on 1/20/2024; however, i cancelled this package on 1/5/2014, well in advance of it being renewed, yet I was charged for the full amount, $170.30. It think it is fair for me to get my money back since the service was cancelled well in advance of it's starting date, completely unused. I reached out to their escalation team, but they say they cannot give my money back.Initial Complaint

I have been trying to contact someone at NAMESECURE.com to resolve my email issues that have been down for over 5 days. They have been impossible to get ahold of, and you must open multiple chats with no resolution which is impossible to get anything done. We have been paying for hosting our webmail and website there for years. Suddenly whne trying to change providers, they are unable to help me and have neglected to give me a reason as to why my business email is not working. They have been telling me that I need to wait on their backend support, who only makes matters worse. They will input the wrong code and my email will crash. When I reach back out they tell me I need to wait 1-2 days before escalation. This has created a significant impact on my business due to their lack of management of their hosting sites, and is costing me in a huge amount of time and money, not to mention penalties from missing payments.Initial Complaint

My domain is not up for renewal and my contact information is up to date. You may not take any action against my account. Please unlock my account so I may edit my website. Causing a loss to my business. Due to red service posture and abuse of functions I will need my domain unlocked for transfer to another server. I may not be renewing when my account is up for renewal. Any additional treats of action or tort will not encourage me to renew in 2024. someone requested my information without my consent and keeps trying to reset my passcode. God have mercy on you.Initial Complaint

After paying ******* to host my website I started to get charges from web.com. thinking that it was the yearly subscription from wix being broken down into segments I let it go then I saw the charge for a yearly wix account as a whole and realized I was being charged for something I didn't subscribe to. I reached out to web.com they tried to get information out of me when I found out I was paying for the domain of some scam website called twohounds.com. they would not issue a refund nore supend the charges.Initial Complaint

I registered domain names on register.com 2 years later, I noticed a bill kick in where they subscribed me to hosting services for these domain names. This is on auto renew at $15 per month each, which adds up to a lot of money for the domain names! I did not ask for this nor do I need it. I just wanted to register the domain name.More importantly, they provide no means of cancellation. I opened a chat request to close the hosting accounts. Once it was determined that was the reason for my inquity, the chat was closed and cancelled by them. There is no means to cancel on the web page. When I go to adjust my auto-renew settings, it says there is no auto renew in place. But on the same screen, it shows the service is going to auto renew again in one month. At best, this is very shady business. At worst this is fraudulent and extortionary behavior.Initial Complaint

I moved two domains over to web.com. I then decided to upgrade one with WordPress. I purchased the WordPress add-on through web.com. I received no support. I had to call almost 10 times a day to get answers. Now I can't even log into the domain. I want my domain (*****************) removed and I want to authcode. You call there and no one knows anything. You get 10 different answers and are told that they'll notify support. The response I received from support was worth two cents. They also had the nerve to close out the help ticket without getting any feedback from me. They repeated the exact same thing the reps did. I REALLY want a refund. Because they shouldn't be in business. The issue stems from web.com failing to provide the HTTP security for my site. I had to call on my own because reached out. No account manager or anything. I asked to speak to a manager. I haven't heard from a manager at all. They need to shut down.
