The trouble with advertising
Recently I signed up for an account at web.com. I had heard they had a good service and I wanted to try it out. Now don’t get me wrong I love my blue host account and plan on staying with them. The reason I signed up with the new account was because I was going to start a website with a friend of mine from the internet and I did not want him to have access to my other sites. He also preferred web.com.
As some of you know I am a member of some GPT programs. I enjoy them as I can try different things and get paid to do it. Always a good thing. I signed up for the web.com account though Treasure Trooper my favorite get paid to site. Everything was good and since I was paying for hosting I saw the cash back as a discount. Well a few days after signing up and the offer approving. I logged into my account and the money was gone. Okay they had frauders and pulled there account. It happens. I understand why. It just sucks. So I figure I’ll keep it anyway.
The next day my friend calls and he has a new job and won’t be able to start the site with me. He was going to do all the hard work I was just going to advertise and write about it. So, once again the day kinda sucked. So I decide that I’m going to call and cancel the account. I’ve only had it a week and it’s not going to go anywhere. I make the call. The women is friendly, but I can’t hear her. it takes us 15 minutes to figure this out. Then she says okay we can do this but I have to send you here. So I get transfered. Then I am told that my account will be canceled at the end of the next billing cycle. This makes me mad. Why are they keeping my money? Of course I couldn’t hear this women very well so I finally hung up.
So what is my review of web.com. Don’t use them. They scam and they have a horrible service that you pay way too much for. Blue host offers twenty times as much as web.com and has much better customer service. I’m sure there are other hosting services that are much better. I’ve learned my lesson. I will stick to what I like and thats it.
