“Help is available 24/7”

9/1/24

Help is available 24/7. The site design is 9 out of 10. I have been with another web designer, and Web.com is more user friendly. I would like to see availability for my email on the left side menu when I first sign in.

155 of my domains were moved from mydomain and I'm still waiting for the transition team to reach out to me to address pricing issues - called you 3 times and it goes nowhere except being told someone will get back to me.

Reason I chose this business:

I didn't - you bout mydomain

On Monday I requested an auth code to transfer a domain to another party. Have not received the auth code yet, and it is Thursday. No acknowledgement of my request. This is bad business practce and makes me want to move the rest of my domains.

Reason I chose this business:

To prevent the domain that I am trying to move from renewing automatically.

Some of the links don't visibly look like links making it difficult to setup the site. Specifically the Domain management and SSL certificate setups.

The ongoing email screw up has been unacceptable for such a large vendor. You changed things without prior notification a few weeks ago and had nothing helpful in the support pages when I could not log in to email. I had no email for over a week. I had to complain several times via chat. Today things changed again and I could not login to my account manager or email. It's working now, but I wish you would get your act together.

Web.com continues to charges for domains which have been transferred to a different registars for several months.

Reason I chose this business:

I did not. Web.com is too expensive and now have started charging for domains which are no longer registered there.

A likert scale question is free, however if you would like a text response you can upgrade for $99.99. This introductory offer will expire in 3 days, and will revert to the full price.

Isn't this annoying, imagine if all your questioners responded like this. Reminds me of Norton security. Trying to sell all the time, in my opinion is not good.

It took me weeks to get my email migrated because your support people kept failing to update the back end, even with multiple chats. One tech suggested i do it myself.

Reason I chose this business:

You merged with Mydomain. I am not sure,I'll stay. So many issues and complete lack of competent support.

I was a satisfied customer of Dotster.com. But once they were bought by Web.com and I was transferred to Web a couple of months ago, I have not been able to view or modify my senefest.com website. Tech could not fix my issue with not having Weebly available even though Web.com had been collecting a monthly fee for the service. I still cannot manage my website or use Weebly, yet the monthly fees were collected. Last week, our nonprofit decided to cancel our website hosting and email service subscription with Web.com. On a positive note, all the customer service reps I spoke with were pleasant and caring.

Reason I chose this business:

Our Dotster account was transferred to Web.com.

Our website has been down for over 20 days! And NO ONE IN YOUR COMPANY SEEMS TO KNOW WHY OR CAN FIX IT. I'm on hold everyday for hours to hear "WE ARE STILL WORKING ON IT" seriously? It's just a small info website! I am not receiving any calls or emails, and I AM LOSING BUSINESS! Because of the fault of your company!

Reason I chose this business:

Unfortunately, our site was with Dotster and you took over. Since then, service has been TERRIBLE. No one can EXPLAIN why our website is NOT WORKING.

My domain "transferred" from mydomain.com, is still not properly transferred, and I have still not access to make any changes - I seriously suspect that web.com does not have the willingness nor skills to correct the error they have made.

Reason I chose this business:

To check the status, and to make pending updates

Catch-all instructions are incorrect in step 2

I don't have an "email" link to click on, just Home / Email & Office (which doesn't help with catch all) / Domains

I am a client of mydomain.com and do not understand the new relationship between the two apparently separate online portals, plus I was NEVER informed that a takeover or merger was taking place so the last couple of months has been very stressful.

I wanted to access my account to check something quickly. What followed was two different authentication codes sent to my email that I had to wait for. Then a popup to dismiss. Then this rating popup.

I've been at this for almost 10 minutes now and I just wanted to check something on my account. Not even there yet.
