GoDaddy Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Alex | Web Perf (@AlexVibeCode) reported@PalSahabTechni1 @GoDaddyHelp @GoDaddy It's infuriating when hosts hold your data hostage for an upsell. GoDaddy purposely limits default backups to 24 hours just to force you into their premium add-ons. Did your site get hit with malware, or was it a bad plugin update that made you need the older backup
-
MonstaDomains (@MonstaDomains) reportedGoDaddy WHOIS lookups being used to doxx scammers is peak irony. The data's supposed to be private but it's only private if you pay them extra. Meanwhile bad actors just get exposed anyway because they didn't think ahead.
-
David Chelly (@onlinestratfr) reported@dnaccess @OnlineCrocodile @Name__Groove Netsol, worse of all... Can also be Godaddy, which is very bad I'm surprised that the industry continues to use the major US players, which used to be the most advanced by far, but now often offer terrible services
-
Amit Gupta (@Yibecoder) reported@katerleonid Dynadot is quicker, Porkbun support is good, Unstoppable is delayed but they come around. Most of the time godaddy support has no idea what one is talking about.
-
Sheharyar Khan (@iSheharyar) reportedIn July 2024 I needed a domain and hosting. I checked GoDaddy's packages, compared them with Hostinger, decided to go with Hostinger. Decision made, moved on. That was almost 2 years ago. I never went back to GoDaddy, never visited their site again, never thought about them. 🧵
-
Alyson Chadwick (@AlysonHChadwick) reported@ethanjaack GoDaddy is normally pretty reliable. I do use a different service for some websites (Dreamhost).
-
Jake (@jakeh2792) reportedList of customer support run by AI which I can say is faster and better than the humans: First place: @GoDaddy Close second: @InstantlyAI I''ll continue to expand.
-
mark palmer (@MaverickMark) reported@GoDaddyHelp make a formal complaint about setting up domain & emails with tech issues at godaddy’s end . This was followed by hours of fake chat help, drop calls, lies & email contacts who don’t do anything. I’ve wasted many hours. I want an investigation & compensation

down strum (@downstrum) reported@GoDaddy @GoDaddyHelp how do you think your transition to ShipEngine has gone? Did you do any QA/Testing in lower environments? It’s the worst deployment of a feature I’ve seen in my 20 years on the platform.
-
John Kenn (@Sudoku1016705) reported@TTrimoreau Godaddy is better to buy domain, I never found pricing diff between namecheap and godaddy
-
David Chelly (@onlinestratfr) reported@Karakehayov @afternic Afternic and Godaddy offer horrible services and have (almost) always done so It is imo not a problem of specific people but of size of organization and property rights. I am by your side when you fight against the bad practices of some organizations, but I am unsure that is necessary to drop names.
-
Herman (@hermanschutte) reportedWent on to @GoDaddy for the first time in a long while today to disable some domain auto renewals. What an absolute **** show. When did GoDaddy become completely unusable? You have to navigate 10 pages and dodge a thousand upsells just to perform the most basic of tasks?
-
Felix Guo (@felix_guo_daxia) reported@itsaaroshi Fr, straight honest answer: Cloudflare for DNS, management, and zero sketchy upsells.Porkbun & Cloudflare all the way.Porkbun for cheap, clean domain pricing + free privacy. Namecheap mid, Dynadot solid but UI clunky.Never touch GoDaddy (scammy upsells, overpriced). No cringe hidden fees, no forced add-ons, just simple domains.
-
bhavesh shah (@bhaveshshah) reported@OmidMogasemi So not exactly a cloud issue .. but downloading in php or such format on iPhone is not possible .. I was trying to build something and needed to download this file and send to my godaddy but couldn’t .. of course later on I learn to use terminal so it kind of got solved .. but if someone’s new and using chat to build something they might be stuck …
-
elena (@elephnaburky) reported@ChrisProd_ @Echotheglitch8 It was for sale by GoDaddy, and if Glitch owned it, it would've stayed GoDaddy. It was transferred to NiceNIC sometime between then and now. Glitch has never used NiceNIC.
-
Rodolfo Gonzalez (@rudy4world) reported@GoDaddy so why outsource support to overseas reps who barely speak English and can’t fix basic issues? Embarrassing, @GoDaddy. Fix your support
-
Willem DaFlow (@lovethisplan) reportedIf you told me that @godaddy customer service was an AI bot designed to get me to off myself in frustration, I'd believe you completely.
-
Leon Wosko (@leonwosko) reportedI regret to inform you GoDaddy has such formidably bad UX I'm switching to Porkbun
-
Spencer Heckathorn (@mrhobbeys) reported@BacLeodiv Everyone hates on Godaddy but I e been there 20 years and only had one major issue related to their migration in the early 2010s. Hundreds of domains and 40ish customers. No complaints. I also use the others. Namecheap is up and down on their support. Cloudflare I thought of as expensive. But honestly they all are now.
-
Charlie (@CryptoBallX) reported@savvysaleslady @GoDaddy @GoDaddyHelp What's the issue?
-
Jyotiprakash Behera (@learnwidjp) reportedWorst experience with @GoDaddy support compared to other top domain registrars like @Namecheap and @Cloudflare. Reported serious fraud-related domains with evidence, but still no effective response or visible action on my complaints. Case IDs: DCU101299924 & DCU101300141.
-
판교에듀포럼 (@pangyo29482) reported@GoDaddy The customer support advertised as available 24/7 is effectively limited to international phone calls and English-based communication.
-
Dami Dina (@DamiDina) reported@pratiknagariya i would never trust godaddy. why not use cloudflare. you should upgrade your brand trust
-
****** Cat Fox (@shittycatfox) reported@JosephJacks_ That's why basically every company that an Indian takes over immediately goes to **** Adobe GoDaddy Microsoft Etc All used to be dead reliable. Now complete garbage
-
Christine Harrington (@savvysaleslady) reportedMy mindset is being challenged since my website went down May 10th. What I can’t wrap my mind around is this: 1. Out of the 19 GoDaddy “tech support” I talked to..not one care enough to solve the problem. 2. It’s day 9 and the problem hasn’t been solved. @GoDaddyHelp doesn’t care. 3. When I called today to get the info I needed on my domain to move it .. I was put on an hour hold then was disconnected. Did I get a call back.. no. @GoDaddy pays celebrities to push their product..but when it comes to service..there is none. I’m completely astonished.
-
*** (@dclandofnerds) reported@tony_sabio Also your site was built by godaddy,… come on dude! If you support small business hire a small business. What ******* amateur hour!
-
josh (@xcopydotexe) reported@uwunetes i know godaddy is a scam but why is namecheap bad?
-
HRH Prince Sven Olaf of CyberBunker - CB3ROB (@cb3_rob46858) reported@adahstwt that is not how the business relation works godaddy. your website has to be compatible with whatever the customer chooses to use. lololol. NOT the other way around. lol. or else, no pay.
-
HRH Prince Sven Olaf of CyberBunker - CB3ROB (@cb3_rob46858) reported@adahstwt godaddy has always been a **** company. way back in the days they did not know what 'glue records' are. lol. :P well gee if i put a domain on nameservers within itself, would you be so kind as to also put A records to those in the gtld server? idiots.
