DotEasy Customer Reviews & Testimonials
| Doteasy engages in illegal billing and business practices. They will charge your cancelled account without consent. They do not follow ICANN policies be warned. I worked there, and I was DISGUSTED at how I had to lie to customers and basically make excuses on why we cannot transfer their domain name. If a customer changes their contact information on the domain, they cannot transfer the domain away from Doteasy until after 60 days. So basically, you are FORCED to renew with Doteasy. If you want to transfer your domain name before expiry, they will keep the ball rolling until it expires, and then tell you it has expired, so you cant transfer it and you are required to renew, which is a 60 day lock. If you attempt to dispute charges via your bank. They WILL charge you a hosting chargeback fee. Be warned and stay the hell away from Doteasy / In2Net / Dollarhost (they are all the same company). | ||||||||||
| I went for Doteasy's unlimited hosting package so that I could take advantage of their off the shelf e-commerce system (Pinnacle cart). After this I experienced 2 YEARS of mistreatment at their hands.The biggest problem of many; was that they listed payment gateways such as HSBC-CPI (my first choice) & Paypal website payments pro as being directly supported by their cart but even after 2 YEARS of conferring with their technical support, I never once managed to process any card transactions!I suspect that this is because I am a UK customer & the version of Pinnacle cart which I was provided with simply was not able to accommodate me. The reason for this is because Doteasy were unable to support my initial choice of payment gateway (HSBC-CPI) because we eventually found out that due to the fact that I was a UK customer, that they were unable to synchronize the time stamp on their server with that of my UK payment gateway.Doteasy are rude, deceitful & incompetent! |
