Dear *** *** *** ** * *** I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience associated with this account, and the balance being sent to collections Please note that when this account had been ordered,
it was notated that all hosting services and domain names would automatically renew, unless the auto-renewal feature is turned off, or the domain/hosting is physically canceled by the customer Prior to the renewal, email notifications are sent out in order to give the customer ample time to cancel their service if it is no longer required Our records indicate that the hosting package and domain name: *** had renewed for another year on 6/18/16, however, we did not receive any contact from you until 8/3/when you emailed us stating that you did not wish to continue with this service and renewAlong with that, you mentioned that you had attempted to transfer the domain to another provider in advance and we would not release itAt that time, an agent advised you to contact our Cancellation Team for assistance to cancel any unwanted features, and they would have been able to assist in regard to the domain transfer as wellIf there had been an outstanding balance for an extended amount of time, then an attempted domain transfer may be initially blocked, however, once contacting us we would unblock the attempt as the domain name belongs to you the customer, not 1&Internet Inc In order to assist you, we are pulling and waiving the balance of $from our Collections TeamRadius will remove you from any list that they have, and this has not, and will not affect your credit That being said, there are no locks or restrictions on this account which would keep you from transferring the domain name away from 1&Internet Incat this timeTo transfer it, you will just simply need to contact the provider in which you want to move it to, and initiate the transfer from their sideOnce this has started, we will be able to release the domain via a transfer to that other registrarThe process of transferring a domain can last between 3-days, which is a process that we do not have the ability to expedite, as it is *** policy that can cause this waiting timeFor your records, listed below is the authorization code that you will also need in order to transfer your domain name *** * *** *** ***

Dear *** *** (Customer ID # ***),
I sincerely apologize for any
inconvenience that has occurred here with your account
In regard to the voicemail that I left, our Server Team is
experiencing a temporary matter with less staffing than normal, which is
causing for a higher call volume, and extended holding timesI have had a Server
Team agent look into your particular issue, and they have not been able to find
any resource alerts in the back end that would explain an impact on the performance
of your VPS ServerThey also do not recommend customers run such trading
software on a VPS, as they share memory bandwidth, disk I/O and CPU time with
all other customers on the hostThe Server Team feels that stock trading
servers should mainly be on their own dedicated hardware or at least on
something with dedicated resources, such as a Dynamic Cloud ServerVPS servers
are really meant more as an intermediary between shared hosting and a full
dedicated server
That being said, we are refunding all of the invoices that
had been charged while this account was active, for a total amount of $
Please allow 3-business days for this refund to be processed
Once more, we apologize for any inconvenience that has been
caused here

They placed my account into collection and put the account on hold without notificationThe only notification I received is that my domain was about to and then expiredWhen attempting to pay the bill with the number listed on the site, I was referred to a collection agencyI could not even access the account information to updated the payment methods

I cancelled services and they continued to bill me for them after multiple phone calls and emails

In October of I had purchased a domain name from an online company called 1&Internet, INCI used the domain for one year and then when I got a notice that the domain would be expiring soon, I decided to cancel it in October before it was expiredI went on their page and could not find the cancellation page so I emailed the company to inquireThey sent me a link and I started what I thought was the domain cancellationI received a confirmation, clicked the link and found out that it does not cancel the domain immediately, but that it would take a few daysI waited to see and I heard nothing from the companyIn the beginning of November I received a letter stating that they would Send my account to collections if I did not pay for my domain that I had already cancelledThen this month (December 21, 2016) I got a letter from a collection agency stating that I need to pay $when the original domain was only $I would like this company to be investigat

Really terrible service They make it very difficult to cancel or close your account and they keep billing you even after you've canceled your accountI called and asked them if I had an outstanding balance on my account First they said no, then they said yes I asked them if a certain domain was still on my account First they said no, then they said yes This company cannot be trusted

I am writing with regard to my ecommerce plan I have spent over $with 1andand still do not have a functional site live
The support has been nonexistent I sit on hold for to minutes only to get someone overseas that provides no help
The templates and themes offered have no variety and the free ones do not load properly The ease of use that you claim in your advertisements is not true
I have spent countless hours loading over products When you switched your platform for the ecommerce I lost keywords for nearly all these products, costing me countless hours of work to redo them
I feel I have wasted countless hours and over $for nothing

I used 1&Internet for my business and it was easy to sand works great for my business So when my peers from a youth program I help to run asked me to sa website for youth program, I recommended 1&Internet even though they wanted to ***.com 1&Internet advertises a referral program so I thought I would try it since I convinced the youth program to use 1&Internet I sthe new *** and instead of them creating a new account for it, 1&Internet added to my existing business account, even thought the billing information was completely different When I called them about it, they told me there would be a fee to transfer it to a new account and never answered my questions about the referral program So then I spent many hours creating the new website for our youth program only to find out that the URL for the site was different than the new ***, very confusing I called and spent about an hour on the phone to get it fixed so when yo

Someone opened an account using my credit card with 1&Internet and I called them and told them I did not authorize thisThey said I had no proof and continued to bill my accountI turned to Mastercard and issued a dispute&fought the chargeback every step of the wayThis started back in June of Finally today November 7, 1&Internet finally closed my accountI had to talk to someone in the the Philippines and they finally closed my accountI still had to pay hundreds of dollars for an account I never set up , authorized or usedWhen I explained that to 1&they said it did not matter if I ever used or logged into the account but that since they had my credit card number and info I was responsibleI see tons of complaints about 1&IONOS online and think you should be very careful dealing with themAlan T

I called 1&on 5/7/-- they confirmed the emails where on their server -- but, that I had to pay a fee to restore themI disagreed explaining I don't believe it is right for them to charge me for their error He said he could do nothing unless I paid the fee
I then explained that even if I agreed -- additions funds would take a month to be a

I explicitly terminated my relationship with them due to their obstructive methods to not allow a domain transfer; as a result I have also lost the domain registrationI had well in advance of renewal followed all steps to allow for transferAfter a bunch of back and forth, I finally decided I'd rather give up the domain than continue dealing with their hostage tacticsThis went on for months, and then the barrage of harassing phone calls startedI told them verbally to cancel, I never ever agreed to renew, and my last written communication clarifying this was Aug

I called and to cancel an invoice so I wasn't billed $for a website I hadn't builtWhen I called I explained I just wanted to cancel and not renew anything because I haven't done anything with itAt that time I was told I could get a promotion for $and keep it for another yearI said I would have to think about it and get back to them the next day but wanted the original invoice cancelledThe next day I checked me bank account and I see that even though they told me they had cancelled the invoice they ended up withdrawing the money from my accountSo I called to find out whyThey said that it will take 7-days before I get my money back that they had said the day before was completely cancelled and would not be withdrawn from my checking accountWhy should I wait 7-days to get money back that they agreed that they weren't taking in the first place? I said that wasn't acceptableAt this point they are saying they are refunding me but I have to wait 7-days

Thank you for the response and the courtesy. I do have another concern in that 1andrepresentatives are not speaking to one another. ("The left hand is not communicating with the right hand" so to speak)

I ordered a domain name through 1&on 6/5/(contract 65610585) As you'll see in notes, when the domain was registered online for $1.17, it did not process despite charging my cardI called customer service that same day, 6/5/17, and the agent said he would try purchasing it again on his end to ensure the domain was purchased for me and not by someone elseHe said it would put another hold on my card for $1.17, but the initial one would drop off once the invoice was processed
I noticed that he put a $hold on my card, as opposed to $1.17, so I called back and spoke with another agent several minutes laterHe notified me that it was a mistake, that he notated the account, and that the invoice would only be for $On June 8th, I received an emailed invoice for $11.17, which was 100% inaccurate and against what all the agents notified me would happen (I was given Case ID ***) I sent an email the same day, but got no response, so I calledThe agent said he'

Dear *** ***,
I sincerely apologize for any
inconvenience associated with this matter
I have researched the Case History, and have found that the
account in question with this issue, is not under your name, but under the name
of *** ***Along with that, the email address on file is not that of: *** , which you had used
when you issued this complaint through the Revdex.comThe email address on file was: ***One of our
previous agents that you spoke with informed you of the points of contact in regard
to the past due balance which occurred from a February invoiceAlong with
that, 1&Internet was contacted once back in May of 2012, where we had
been asked about how long it would take to re-point the DNS settings for the
domains under the account, in which we responded via email, that it would take
approximately 24-hours for the change to be recognized worldwide through any
potential change being made in that regardHowever, whether the DNS settings
were changed or not, there was no hosting package cancellation request, nor
would a change of DNS settings constitute a cancellation
That being said, as per the email that you received
yesterday from Joy in our Transfers Team, the domains: ***, ***,
and ***, have already been reactivated under the new 1&Account ID
# ***You once again have complete access to them
In order to help you with this unfortunate matter, please
allow for me to tell you what I can do to assist you furtherOnce we have
received payment from NCO for the old account, ID # ***, I will personally
issue that complete payment back as a refund, to the credit card that is on
file for the new accountAlso, when domains are reactivated to a new account, they
typically generate a new year domain charge, which at full price would cost $
per domainI cannot stop this invoice from generating ahead of time,
however, if you are charged for this reactivation under the new account, I will
see to it that you receive that as a full refund as well, or, if the invoice
generates and does not process payment, I will waive the balance dueOnce this
situation is said and done, everything will have been processed and reactivated
for free, as a sign of good faithPlease believe me when I say that I am doing
all of this, to help you as much as I can, and alleviate some of the
frustration that has been caused
Once more, I apologize for any
inconvenience that has been caused here
Thank you
