“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.

Everytime I make a change to one of my domains, I get a confirmation but then have to contact your chat to actually get a change done.

I could write a book about my $#*!ty experiences so far. You can have a rep email me if you want more information

Reason I chose this business:

Because I'm already with them (from when it was Dotster.com and much better)

I think it is ridiculous that I went for over a week without email. I am running a business and can't imagine why no warning was given or anything.

Reason I chose this business:

Because I have not had a chance to change to gmail.

Pretty useless, cannot resolve my issue so far and I don't have high hopes about resolving it soon,

Reason I chose this business:

My domain is registered with you and I have no choice but to deal with you (until I can transfer my domain out).

Was charged twice for 10 year renewal. And I cannot believe that you needed 50 characters in order to accept my complaint.

Billing emails are unclear and confusing

Billing emails are unclear and confusing. Unable to synchronize my billing to be all in one month. Feels like i'm getting billed every twenty five days for the same thing. Site navigation is confusing and difficult. Since the merger with Dotster things have gone severely downhill

Reason I chose this business:

I did not choose web.com. My account was acquired by web.com as I was a dotster customer for more than fifteen years prior. I am currently shopping other solutions to move my accounts and services too as these billing errors are ridiculous

Tech support is awesome. I feel I've been able to create a nice site. However I wish I had not paid for the quick start site because I could have done it my self.
The work at my registrar site is the hardest part.

Reason I chose this business:

Research, my old hosting company which I was with for 22 years is going out of business.

I started an upgrade process in March and still don't have working email. I have been charged for both the old and new websites and I am told there is no one I can escalate to.

Reason I chose this business:

I will not choose Web.com in the future and will look for other companies.

Phone assistance was good. It took a while but that was on me. Had difficulty getting Filezilla to work but the agent was helpful. He sent me a screenshot of what I should see but wasn't. I had a corrupted download of Filezilla, after reload of a new copy, it worked fine. He was patient as we worked through it. All looks good now.

Reason I chose this business:

Previous host had little / no support and wanted to increase my price to give that support... Web.com improved service / support.

We got migrated to web.com from dotster. The migration was totally bungled, and all we got from support after waiting for a live chat agent was "We can't help you", and "there is no manager available to help you". AVOID AVOID AVOID

I have signed in and I didn't like the services provided and I was not satisfied. I called in to cancel and refund but I have been told 3 days required to recover the payment. It is clear to me then that your company is not confident and that's why you would have such a policy. I only been deigned in for 4 days. What a waste!

For a professional registrar, missing functionality that administrators require: zone export / import, bulk features not working, pretty sad

User-friendly interface. I appreciate the variety of templates and additional features, plus the convenience of purchasing a domain through the same platform.
