Was charged for a domain they never ordered; GoDaddy said a staff member with account access made the purchase and gave no clear explanation of how.

Has used GoDaddy for over 12 years and feels it declined; contact-form emails stopped reaching their inbox and GoDaddy branding is on their emails.

My domains have sat at Gandi since around 2009. Back then the mailboxes came free with each domain and renewals were never something I thought about. Since the company was bought, both changed. Mail became a paid add-on, so I moved it to another provider and only kept the free forwarding, and my .com renewals now cost more than three times what I pay at Porkbun. The DNS editor is still clean and I can't remember a single outage. Twelve domains moved so far, the rest will go as they come up for renewal.
