  @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've been a huge proponent of @GoDaddy. Back to back days of hitting a brick wall and two worthless reps later, I wouldn't recommend them to my worst enemy. Way to go from hero to zero overnight.

  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.

  @GoDaddyHelp @GoDaddy your service is the worst of all ISPs. Failing to update my domain's nameservers like you didn't take my money for the domain? Terrible service!

  Finest Domainer (@FinestDomainer) reported 18 minutes ago

  @GoDaddy @afternic Dear GoDaddy/ Afternic, Sir, Most secondary Domain marketplace investors ( customers) were either Afternic or Dan Customers, two largest #domaining platforms. GD bought afternic ( in 2013 as a running marketplace having its own search engine metric and sales). Then it shut down the same. Today afternic is not the marketplace but in fact a listing process site just. Then GD bought Dan .com ( in 2022 ) the world's best marketplace in rankings. Again, it had search engine metrics and posted excellent sales. It too was culled down in 2024, telling all that the said would be shifted to Afternic. The domain investors which make you and the domaining industry an industry, because of whom you exist today, were led to believe that you were unifying both. So all logically thought that once you switch Dan to afternic completely, the Dan search metric will also shift to Afternic and sales will continue in the same manner. But it was soon found out, you did not replicate the successful Dan to Afternic. This meant that sales engines of Afternic and Dan both were culled down mercilessly. Everybody knows GD is a registrar, before you bought these market place platforms. But Afternic and Dan were not. These were individual sales transaction platforms for old domains, where the listed domains were searched and bought. But now you removed all that and shifted the lander to GoDaddy, which sales fresh regn. So the buyer can only reach through a direct url search at GoDaddy, through which you are promoting fresh registrations, and not through Marketplace search as earlier. So this way you are using the investors domains for selling fresh alternate Tld Regns and not really investors domains, which Afternic and Dan were best known for. Can we request you on behalf of domaining community to re-instate Dan or replicate their search engine/sales engine under Afternic itself and retain sales of secondary domains at Afternic itself instead of at GoDaddy which is not a marketplace but a registrar. Hope you will try to win the trust of large community of domain investors and old Afternic and Dan customers.

  Years in the making, so happy to finally be done with @godaddy what a ********. Even after deleting hosting, 4 days after renewal, they refused to give a prorated refund. So happy to be done with them and their **** services and **** hosting.

  @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.

  @GoDaddy customer almost two decades. You stuck me for $100 for trial digital marketing program I did not use. 6-11 Billed 6-12 Listed on Credit Card 6-13 Requested refund but could not talk to human. Went back and forth with your chat people who told me til wait til Monday. Call Monday now you it’s too late according to refund policy you never provided. #DigitalMarketingSucks #GoDaddyBad #BrianSharples

  Anyone else notice Wallpaper Engines down. The site redirects to a godaddy page to buy the domain.

  Craylor (@craylor) reported 33 minutes ago

  @areimann Totally agree. And I will also argue that it’s never worth using GoDaddy hosting when that means using them for domains too… I don’t know of one person who would use GoDaddy’s hosting only and use a different domain registrar. And the domain side of their business is mind bogglingly bad.

  @GoDaddyHelp Hello, I need a refund for order #4115631028. It’s a Microsoft 365 email renewal for 348 AED that I didn’t authorize, never used, and I’m within 30 days. No renewal notice was sent. Please help cancel and refund.

  @maietta What's the GoDaddy issue? I assume you have full control over the DNS. If not, move the domain to a different provider.

  Dealing with the shipping issue. @GoDaddy @GoDaddyHelp This has gone far enough you are destroying my legacy. @GoDaddy has been transitioning to an AI system and really has screwed things up on my end. I wanted to convert to Shopify but that’s also another hurdle. I’ll work on figuring out the shipping and making it right.

  When I asked for a refund, they said they'd have to cancel the domain. This is ridiculous. Fix my account & reverse charges NOW. #GoDaddy

  @DInvesting @GoDaddy @DomainTools monthly billing, additional security, dedicated support from a very knowledgeable person would be the 3 biggest things.

  @GoDaddyHelp A second agent “helped”. They seemed to have their head more in it than the first agent who acted like he was playing Disney Solitaire too. Hopefully I won’t be billed after I asked two people to help me cancel. First agent was a lazy bottom-of-the-barrel zipperhead.

  Casey Meraz (@CaseyMeraz) reported 51 minutes ago

  @DonationDude Well I checked my email and saw a domain renewal notice for yet another site I intended to build and never did. I'm a domain squatting king. So with that motivation I opened claude code and asked it how to connect me to my Godaddy account to see/ edit and make changes. I probably used a prompt exactly like that. It lead me to get a Godaddy API key and I was off. From there I had it do research on the domains, interview me on the topics, check my dataforseo mcp for competition in the niches and then run agents to do research on the niche's and whats ranking in each. I used that information to create keyword clusters and then content briefs. Then I had it build the content, websites, and follow my SEO checklists. It gave me the sites to QA and then I reviewed and pushed live

  @MissIndepe3t2 @Mini_111111 GoDaddy is a publicly traded technology company and the world’s largest domain registrar. They primarily provide tools to help small businesses and entrepreneurs get online. This includes domain name registration, web hosting, website builders, and e-commerce tools. Dont be so gross in your thinking. A lot small businesses use them.

  @GoDaddy Dear @GoDaddy I noticed my website images are all flipped around all of a sudden. I didn’t make those changes. I have been sitting on hold for 50 minutes to speak to someone. And now the call just dropped all of a sudden. I have a full signal and I’m quite annoyed. Been paying for website for several years and every time I call customer service this keeps happening. It’s very annoying. 50+ mins to speak to a live person is horrible.

  And not for a lack of trying. Just for a lack of brains :) In my 18 years in the domain business, I learned it's stupidity that is unpredictable and thus more dangerous than malice. But don't worry, GoDaddy has both :D Your domains there will never be safe. Transfer them out.

  They chop and change all the time! So bad for trust. @Godaddy now only a tiny bit worse on transfers. Sure UD say "we commit to at cost pricing" - no disrespect just harder to believe you.
