1and1 Internet is a Rip Off
Complaint Rating:  100 % with 2 votes
1and1.com recently sent me a notice that they went up on their rates.

I contacted them to advise I no longer would be renewing with them as their website is very NOT user friendly.

They charge my credit card every month for services I have not authorized.
