1and1.com Losing Customers, Gaining Anti-Company Evangelists

By the looks of doing a google search on 1and1 sucks, there are even more people getting screwed by the internet hosting company 1and1.com.

Use them at your own peril.  After over 7 years of hosting over 60+ domains, I started getting traffic to one of my sites, so they turned it off without notice.  Then when I bitched, they froze my account and all my domains for three weeks before cancelling it.

I lost thousands of dollars in advertising because of 1and1.com and their shady business practices - not to mention over 40 domains and years of work I was never able to recover.

1and1 Sucks!  They will screw YOU too!

Update: 1and1.com Still Refusing to Update My Contact Info and Release Domains

I just have to say that 1and1.com sucks!  They continue to try to fuck with me by not allowing me access to domains (and email addresses) that I have owned for many years.  Despite the fact that I've sent them all requested information (including a copy of my drivers license) over 3 times, they have refused to update my domain registration information, give me a list of all the domains I own or transfer these domains to another registrar.  (I am using GoDaddy.com as registrar and host for now).

This should not be happening, but because 1and1.com thinks it is ok to screw even their best long term customers, I continue to pay the price of lost advertising revenues each and every day.

Don't you even consider using 1and1 as a web host or even domain registrar, because if they'd screw their best customers, they'd be happy to screw you too.

Lots of People Hate 1and1.com - They've Been Screwed Too

Just stumbled across this blog post on the First Page of Google no less :  http://elliottback.com/wp/1and1-sucks/

I already knew they would treat others like this too, but this is more proof that 1and1.com is not the company you want to use as your web host or registrar.  Beware of 1and1!

1and1.com Cancels Over 65 Websites

First it started out last Wednesday when I woke to find 1and1.com had arbitrarily and without notice shut down my heavily trafficked news site. Now they have taken down all of my other 65+ sites. Boycott 1and1.

Use 1and1.com at your own risk and peril. They sure killed me off and I was a long time paying customer with over 65 domains with them.

1and1 Has Now Terminated My Contract

This is an email that I just got from the morons at 1and1.com:

Dear Reverend Joe Kennedy, (Customer ID: 71409XX)

You have 2 weeks to find another host.
Sincerely,

I would like Mr. Michael Lazin of 1and1.com to know that he will be personally named in the lawsuit being filed against 1and1.com. He is a total piece of work!

Wonder what they plan on doing about transferring all my domains to another registrar. I'm sure that the International Registration Authority will want to know about this ...
