I wanted to renew 2 .ca names. They charge $14.99cdn per name. I can go to namespro.ca and get it done for $10 each. Could have saved $10. So i fire up chat, see if I can get a discount. What a confusing conversation, in the end, I paid 14.99 cdn each, no saving but they credit me $4 in store. Wasted 45 minutes with them, even renewed a name wasn't due for over a month. I figured i could get them down a bit. I also requested the transaction be cancelled but as you can see in chat it cannot be reversed. I assume this is because of it being a .ca but I got the shaft. I will never renew another .com @GoDaddy they are going to namesilo. So I end up -6$
However I will get my money's worth another way. Enjoy reading my conversation with godaddy and I look forward to opinions as well as critisizm lol

    Thank you for using Live Chat. If you need further assistance, feel free to open a new chat.
  • you -
    kk
  • you -
    still there?
  • Sean -
    yes
  • you -
    why did I still pay 14.99 per domain name
  • Sean -
    you did not
  • Sean -
    it shows the price on the receipt
  • Sean -
    but the card was charged 10.29
  • Sean -
    we credited the rest
  • Sean -
    but the price of the domain was paid - does that make sense
  • you -
    I am looking at it. 14.99 each. took my in store credit of 22$ plus 8.93 from my bank account
  • you -
    bank account/credit card same thing
  • Sean -
    10.29 usd correct the and the credit for the remaining
  • Sean -
    so the only amount to the card was $10.29
  • you -
    I paid $31.48 cdn to renew those 2 names. Thats the same price I would have paid anyways
  • Sean -
    the in store credit was used - so the only new amount paid was the 10.29
  • you -
    why would I pay that if I can renew them both for $20 cdn. I thought was 10.29 per name?
  • you -
    I got no discount
  • Sean -
    you used the in store credit to reduce the out of pocket cost to get both domains for 10.29
  • you -
    I could have simply renewed one at 14.99 for now and still had a credit and cash in my bank. I renewed 2 to save money. I am not paying that price. Cancel the transaction, refund me and I will transfer them
  • Sean -
    Oh I do not understand ? you want to use store credit for another product but not for the domains ?
  • you -
    I'll use my credit for what i want when i want. I renewed early to save money, cancel the transaction. If I want to pay the 14.99 each I will do so when I have to
  • you -
    Or put $10 back into in store credit
  • Sean -
    I verified the credit will be used and the card will be charged
  • Sean -
    Ok. Let me see what I can do
  • Sean -
    unfortunately, I can not refund the store credit
  • Sean -
    the renewal was done and registration was renewed
  • you -
    you were very unclear in your explanation now I read. USD CDN dollars I didnt save anything, I just blew off $10 I could have saved by transfering them
  • you -
    Why cant you cancel the renewals?
  • Sean -
    because it was reported to the registry
  • Sean -
    you could cancel the domain
  • Sean -
    and get refund but it would release the domain
  • you -
    I can register a new name and cancel it within 5 days but not renewals?
  • you -
    I am not cancelling the name wtf
  • Sean -
    I understand, I was only presenting the option
  • you -
    no option, pay now in full or pay when they need renewal
  • you -
    same price
  • Sean -
    the credit will be taken and $10.29 will be charged, this would limiting your cost today to get the domains renewed - that is what agreement was
  • Sean -
    be*
  • Sean -
    sorry for the typo
  • you -
    it still cost me 14.99 per name, I could have renewed them next month
  • you -
    I spent 45 minutes here and saved nothing, spent money I couldnt really afford to spend, cool..
  • Sean -
    I can get the in store credit to $4
  • Sean -
    does that help any ?
  • you -
    anything helps but like I said I could have saved myself 10$ by not contacting you
  • Sean -
    Ok, let me do that for you. ok one moment
  • -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  • THE END all my .ca are good until mid 2016+ and the rest .com to namesilo. I will figure a way to burn my big $4 in store credit, and i am already working on recouping my losses. No duplicate account either, to smart for that chit,

I think he worded a lot of things poorly but still everytime I reread it I understood he was taking your store credit plus 10.xx.
Really he should have said its going to be xx.xx total we will use your credit and cash and it would be clear.

•••
Yes exactly, almost
they took $8.93 cdn
10.xx usd would be $13.50 cdn
So maybe I am ahead another 5 bucks.. nope still doesn't add up
