Thread is for reviews of GoDaddy

No other service I use charges a fee for ACH payments...

It's rather annoying that @GoDaddy insists on charging a $0.90 fee for outgoing ACH payments.

They are collecting commissions between 15% - 30% depending on sales path, boost, landers, etc.

It could be a sale for $500 or $500,000. They are deducting that 90 cents. pic.twitter.com/VoUPL5vwZ7

Free would be nice. For under $1 it might not be worth contacting support unless you have some extra time on weekends or something or are retired.

Am I the only one receiving these renewal reminders?

The emails take an extremely long time to load before the content becomes visible.
Once the content is visible, the expiring domain name is missing.

Act fast. After a couple weeks the redemption fee of $80 + renewal on top kicks in.

It was hit or miss for me if it showed the domain name.

 

[Daniel Owens]

@Name2go you chuckled but the redemption fee if too late really is $80 I have a few like that now that I’m dropping because of it. If they were better names I need to renew before the redemption period where their is redemption fee. You might be able to transfer-out then but not 100% sure bottom line renew fast unless not renewing and contact godaddy about all the bugs on their site

You can manually go to your domain section and find whats renewal is needed. Contact godaddy about that bug.

Are the names on AN listed with a BIN? Sometimes I noticed I get those opt-in emails shortly after I modify the BIN. Maybe if you bulk change the BIN up/down by a dollar to see what happens?

All with BIN .

@GoDaddy I called to ask for a refund on something that I do not want. I was told by your AI phone assistant that you can only ask for refunds in writing. A text was sent, it took a long time to even get a response and apparently the “person” helping me doesn’t even know who I am pic.twitter.com/4mdT9fmZOd

In other words: GoDaddy finds it more important to sell DDC to someone with only 1 domain than to provide that person with proper service.

WTF GoDaddy was bidding on a auction then this happened. pic.twitter.com/4w70E3MD0Z

[Larion]

I am transferring out one of my domains from Godaddy to another registrar.
I initiated the transfer with the AUTH-Code and the domain is now in Status "Pending Transfer".

Usually, the domain which I transfer out of Godaddy is shown (in around 10 minutes after initiating the transfer) at "godaddy.com/control/transfers" and I manually approve the transfer.

However, today this does not work anymore. The domain does not show up at the "godaddy.com/control/transfers" interface. So I can not manually approve.

Did something change in the last few days for "approving Transfers manually" or is there a new GD-Bug ?

 

[Bearded Goat]

@Larion I am experiencing the same. Trying to move out some domains from godaddy. No chance so far to expedite out.

 

[Name2go]

Re. transfers: did you deactivate your data privacy settings @Larion ?
I had to start transfers twice recently because I forgot the setting the first time.

A question to DDC members: Is there a $30 discount code for GD auctions in April? Codes I've pieced together based on the wording in previous months aren't working.

yes.
privacy is deactivated.
I did receive the AUTH-code.
But it is not possible to manually expedite the transfer (there is no E-mail being received from GoDaddy).

 

[Bearded Goat]

It took 13 hours, but I did finally receive the usual "info regarding the transfer of" godaddy email. Then I could expedite out.
