![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | I buy them for 3.50 then transfer them out or sell them before the year is up. Works for me. I don't keep any of my "value" domains there. Just speculating ones that I dont care about but that make me a pretty good ROI. |

![]() ![]() | they're good for checking all the popular extensions available besides .ca. that's about it. -transfers to other registrars are a nightmare. -they billed me for something i didnt buy, forcing me to waste time calling my cc company. -they send me unsolicited spam, disguised as the 1&1 newsletter. for the first (last?) time ever, though, ill admit that the last one offering adwords, adcenter, and ysm credits was good.

![]() ![]() | Pretty Decent... I thought it was extremely easy to get a domain from them. I see there are lots of negative feedbacks but I've not had any problems. I haven't had to contact them for anything and I'm pretty pleased with what I have. |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Customer for several months, no problems. I have had no problems with 1and1 hosting and domains. The fact that they give you free domains with hosting accounts is awesome. It's true, they could improve the process of transferring domains to other people... but it's not impossible. You just simply have to know how to do the process... I think it is more secure this way.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | They suck!! I registered a domain with them 5days back and it hasnt shown on my account. I just called them up and this one girl who doesnt even know to speak or understand basic english and used "sir" every sentence told me they have problems with the registrar. I asked her two more things and for everything her response was "I am sorry Sir, the registrar doesnt work" |

????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/domain-registrar-reviews/84853-1and1-com.html i signed up back when they were giving the 3yr free hosting deal. ive been with them about 4yrs, they are OK. love the $5.99 domain name price, but they only allow you to register 1 name each order. it takes about 20sec to other each name. they do not offer a bulk list order style. but other than that, they are fine. oh yea, it is a little hard to cancel, you have to log in to a speical page url: http://cancel.1and1.com just to cancel | ||||

![]() ![]() | Review I hate them! they deleted all my domains .co.uk ones, beause i violated there TOS, i phoned them up asking what i violated and they didn't know, they were rude and abusive to me through email, and didn't respond to my emails, they are the worst register in the world, please avoid. I had to pay 60.00GBP extra after they deleted my .co.uk domains (which today i never had a statement saying why) the fees i had to pay was to nominet to change register, good job i only had 6 names with them, imagin if i had all my .co.uks with them would be bankrupt lol, its 10.00GBP to transfer domains to a different register. anyways just my little problem - they suck

So I kept trying..and after having to wait 4 days in between for a response, by that time the next billing period had hit and they bill me for another 3 months. Crazy. If you want the domain there forever, and will NEVER need any customer service..then yeah, go for it. |

![]() | I use upanmes.com now. But 1and1 is not too bad. I still have 10 names with them. Never had a problem transfering names out. Always helpful. A little slow for some things. But how often do you change settings. Not very often. Overall it OK. Thanks, ivnj |

![]() | Worst registrar EVER I tried to register a domain with 1&1. They responded, claiming they couldn't verify my order, so they wanted me to call them. They said that they might need my ID. I've registered domains from several registrars and not one has asked for ID. |

![]() ![]() | 1and1 Ripped Me Off Repeatedly! No exaggeration! 1and1 Internet Inc. have ripped me off plenty of times, and I'm just a small-time domainer. Imagine what the bulk buyers must put up with! - I got billed one month when I hadn't even purchased anything with them! Luckily, Visa charged it back. - I had over $60 in domains renewed when I asked to have them cancelled then followed their instructions to do so. - Their dispute resolution shmuck blamed me rather than try and help out seriously. I HATE 1AND1 and ADVISE YOU NOT TO GIVE THEM YOUR BUSINESS. THEIR CHEAP PRICES DONT MAKE UP FOR THEM STEALING YOUR DOUGH LATER!

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | The worst i've come across.....serious domainers beware! I used 1and1 during the free info bonanza....and i'm glad i did. The free info deals let me see just how horrible 1and1 really is. I never purchased a domain with them, but i had major headaches when trying to transfer some of my infos from them. They also take the liberty of renewing your names for you, and sending you the bill. Whether you wanted to keep the name or not. You have to jump through hoops to drop a name. Not worth the headache and hassel! |

![]() ![]() | How do you cancel something you don't want on there? I (well, my mum did) got a letter yesterday stating that if I didn't pay up for something I didn't even realise I had 'bought' then it'd be sent to their lawyers. I've bought a domain from there which I used for about 3 months on a free webhosting company but this other thing which looks like web hosting I've never used. Any help? |
