Laforge1701 obviously is bored and has nothing better to do. Does not have any business with GoDaddy. Needs to feel important. Findings of Fact: GoDaddy does charge/debit accounts that have the Auto Renew OFF! Which is Un-Ethical and Illegal!! They do have canned/shady business practices for those that complain about such Illegal Activity!!! They do not care about their customers and it is more poigent, when you have been with them since their inception!!!! They need to have a Class Action Suit brought against them since they love money so much more than Good Will!!!! I am sure LaForge, being so knowledgeable with contractual law, will be hired as an expert witness, so he might get out of the house and off his computer more often!!!!! Like, the lame point of where one would think to start a Valid Action against such behavior, somehow negates the infraction!!!! When such flippant behavior demeans common sense and decency the only response should be to humble the offender!!!!!!!!! Good Day! SAL

Ok, I think that this report is actually from a disgruntled employee, or just someone very dumb. Why? 1) Well, "Mike" claims to be in new york, but his SIGNATURE says Gilbert Arizona. Gilbert Arizona is a suburb of phoenix, where godaddy is located. If he is in gilbert, it wouldn't be long distance. If it's long distance, he's not in gilbert. So someone is lying there. 2) Even if he is in new york, that is irrelevant, as it's clearly stated that the jurisdiction of any claims against godaddy would have to be taken up in the state of ARIZONA. (14. GOVERNING LAW, VENUE; WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. This agreement shall be deemed entered into in the State of Arizona. Except for disputes concerning the user of a domain name registered with Go Daddy , You agree that the laws and judicial decisions of Maricopa County, Arizona, shall be used to determine the validity, construction, interpretation and legal effect of this Agreement. You agree that any action relating to or arising out of this Agreement shall be brought in the courts of Maricopa County, Arizona. For the adjudication of disputes concerning the use of any domain name registered with Go Daddy , You agree to submit to jurisdiction and venue in the U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona located in Phoenix, Arizona. ) Read it at www.godaddy.com/legal So, godaddy wouldn't have to "fly someone to new york".. mike would have to fly to arizona.. but.. since he LIVES THERE supposedly.. it wouldn't be a long trip. 3) Godaddy representatives cannot cancel a domain name or hosting account that has been setup. CALL THEM, ask them if they can. They cannot. Since they cannot, obviously they never claimed they were going to when "mike" called. 4) $19.09 ? Sounds like a domain renewal and hosting for 2 months? To actually get a service to have auto-renew turned off, the customer [mike] has to actually LOG IN to his godaddy account, and turn off the service. Again, I have to say this seems like user error, and calling a company a ripoff for a $19 charge for services that you could have easily canceled yourself at any time, is just peculiar.
