   Incompetents and liars at best, scammers at worse

   I won't talk about every problem, as there would be a lot (more) to say, but I have to give you my horrible experience. 01/08/23: I contact them in the goal of leasing a subnet. 04-06/08/23: They seem to be able to suit my needs, so I try to buy a subnet plus a server, but there are problems. Firstly, depending on which page I look, the specifications of the "NVME 128" server aren't the same. You first see “unmetered bandwidth”, but when you buy it, it says 50 TB (which the company confirmed it is). They also say 2 x 2 TB SSD, but when you buy it it's only 960 GB, they confirmed it was in fact 2 x 2 TB but I had to add a second disk, which added cost. Secondly, the credit card option isn't working, PayPal is the only alternative (it seems to have been resolved now). I find out that you can pay on the PayPal page without a PayPal account so I do it. It should now take them at most 12 hours to set up the server (their words). 07/08/23: They announce they are purchasing new hardwares, meaning it will take more time. 13/08/23: The server is finally usable, but again, problems appear. The biggest one being with the subnet, it doesn't suit my needs at all, I was extremely clear from the start that I needed something particular, they explicitly stated that they were able to deliver that. They said I had to wait for the subnet to become what I wanted it to be. 17/08/23: I waited more than planned, I contacted them again about the issue, they said that what I wanted wasn't possible, which doesn't make sense for two reasons. Firstly, it's simply not true. Secondly, why would they say they have it, when they don't or can't?. Following this, I ask for a refund, as they lied multiple times (another example: the CPU of the server I got wasn't the advertised one, and wasn't as good) and were completely unable to deliver what I asked for. 19/08/23: After a bit of arguing, they finally accept my demand, my "order will be refunded". 02/09/23: Many messages later, many excuses later, I'm still waiting for the refund, it was said to take 3 days at most, it's been 2 weeks already. 20/02/24: A few more messages later, I'm still trying to get my refund, in vain... They even tried to get me to delete my reviews in exchange for a PARTIAL refund... Even for a full one, I won't!

   👍 Pros:    Quick response time

   👎 Cons:    Smells like a scam|No refund|False promises|False advertising

• IMAP Email Migration Issue - Error 18017

  I am trying to migrate my emails from an IAMP Server (WickedDigitz - a GoDaddy Company) to my Google Workspace account. 5 out of 7 of my emails have been successfully migrated but 2 of my emails I keep getting a Authentication failure.

• My wife's market site blocked

  So needless to say this security feature on networks is getting old. Now my wife's domain under godaddy.com is blocked. This prevents anyone on chrome and who knows what other browsers to access her market page and place orders. The lawsuit is plain as day with plume attempting to disable revenue on her site. Just asking for advice on routes to solve this issue without involving a lawyer? Source: 7 months ago

• How to pick the perfect Domain Name?

  GoDaddy is also another example of a bad domain registrar because it is pricy and gives you so many useless upsells like premium domain privacy protection. Also if you reach out to them then they'll respond, but only write something about their other products. - Source: dev.to / 9 months ago

• trying to self host bitwarden on raspberry pi for local access. i dont care about accessing it outside the network. do i need a domain or can i just use the ip of the raspberry pi?

  The domain name stuff confuses me a bit, if I need a domain do I just go to like godaddy.com and buy a domain I want? Or is there a free option? Source: 10 months ago

• Reverse proxy assistance (Internal error SSL)

  I have a domain purchased: example.com that points to my public IP, as well as a subdomain that points to plex.example.com, and I go through DuckDNS to maintain a static public IP. I have tried changing my example.com back and forth between http/s inside of godaddy.com and it doesn't seem to be making a difference. Considering that I don't have an SSL cert right now it doesn't make sense to me to use https for... Source: 10 months ago
