Brain Host review: scammers 69

I can get no reply from these people and my website has been paid for all of the invoices say paid and still my site is expired and has been for at least 10 days the phone number is disconnected and the email just never gets answered I do not know if they are still operating.

looked at my discover bill & found a charge of $40.00 by brainhost.com, which was an unauthorized charge to the acct. this is dated september 4, 2014 ( 09/04/2014 ) of which neither my wife nor I purchased. i contacted Discover card company & alerted them to a fraud purchase on the account.

i requested a refund within time alloted, and now i cant get back on their site.

On June 2, 2014 you charged $120.40 for my web site run by you that does not exist. It used to exist, but somebody on your side took it off. Google "www.mynewperspective.com" and you get nothing. I haven't taken it off the web. I thought you, for one reason or another, had canceled it and I told to myself, "Okay, maybe I'm too controversial with my subjects, so be it." But checking my particular card's activity a couple of hours back, I found out that you had charged the account for a web site of mine that is not to be found. I want my refund. How do I go about it?

Can I say a few things about them? Little-to-no service after the sale. They act like they expect you to just get up and run a marathon and be some kind of techno-whiz when you know next to nothing about affiliate website operation and you're new to (everything). Watch a bunch of fast-paced blah, blah, blah videos and presto chango. You won't have to ask them a 1001 questions over the phone on all of the overwhelming features on the dashboard. Oh, and what about their attempt to overwhelm us with their well-polished knowledge pool to us newbies in their so-called 'tutorial' videos. YEAH RIGHT. Well, NOT IMPRESSIVE and a downright DETERRENT and a (DISCOURAGEMENT) to a beginner like myself. Thanks for NOTHING! Brainhost. Good job. You have the honors of being a self-centered, selfish agency that hogs all the knowledge to yourself. End of discussion...

Guys, the name of the company says it all. Brain Host - runs by people with no BRAINS. So expect nothing good from them. Of all the hosting accounts that I have now, this is the worst of all. I have accounts with other companies and one that even runs 20+ sites without any hiccups at all. My account with Brain Host just runs 6 sites and already their server can't handle it. So what's the point of advertising unlimited this and unlimited that when you are limiting all resources? When you mislead your customers, it is just as good as you are lying to them and that makes you being called a "scammer". Maybe people in Brain Host for once should at least make an effort to use their BRAINS if they have any, to give better services to customers. Since day one all I've been getting from them are just nightmares. Too bad I'm stuck with them because I fell into the trap of buying a life account. I guess I should move all my sites to other hosting company and use this account of mine as a dumping ground. I'll stay on as long as they are surviving and hope they will go belly up then I'll feel satisfied. To promote or recommend their services to others - NEVER! Not worth the heartache and the headache.

i got just plain ripped off! I want my money...if i have to i will go there and get it myself!

I want my money back

i recieved a email to get a free website and got on brainhost and saw they charge

it is suppose to be free anyway from the website i got there from

To cycool: I suggest you not waste your time trying to get a refund directly from Brian Host, rather call your credit card company and tell them you were a victim of fraud and tell your credit card company you didn't receive the product you paid them and want the charge to be reversed to your credit card account. I also suggest you tell the credit card company you attempted to phone Brian Host and have them refund the charges to you and you never did get through to them and neither will the credit card company be able to do so. The credit card company has the authority and ability to do a direct refund to your account and debit the account used by Brian Host even without Brian Host knowing the transaction is happening. It may take thirty days for you to see the charges reversed but it will happen.

Brainhost sucks. I was asking for refund after buying host from them after few hours. But they just kept me hanging with their auto responder. Don't you guys be fooled by brainhost. They will keep you hanging if you asked for a refund. 100% money back guaranteed my ###.

i have asked my charge card company to cancel my charge due to scam and negativity feed back... still awaiting final answer from my charge card company/

Do not take the responses made by Brain Host on this site as being the truth. Those posting comments from Brain Host are paid to make these posts in an attempt to give people the impression they are answering the complaints and settling the complaints. Neither is true and they will take your money. For those in the U.S. who charged the cost of purchase on their credit card can phone their credit card company at the phone number shown on the back of your credit card and report this as a fraud and your credit card company will be able to reverse the charges back into your account with the proof you have been defrauded by Brain Host or any other scammer. The word "fraud" is the key word and the credit card companies have to refund the money to you under the consumer protection law of the U.S. I have done this and was successful every time.

WHEW, AM I GLAD I"M NOT ALONE!I have had many, many dealings with brain host(you notice they don't merit any capitals)usually through a free offer/through a website, but I still have to pay for hosting.Right now I'm trying to get back $187.29 which they extorted from my credit card.On the receipt was $79.68, but they took $187.29 from my credit card.To get into the service area of their site you need a username and password, they gave me neither.I've been through this enough times to know better than even try, so I won't.I've asked for a P.W. and user, but never got any.I've phoned them, with no results.I don't know what else to do.Can you sue these hosting outfits(there are others just like brain h.and worse)?Can anyone help me retrieve money?Or tell me what to do?

I live in Kenya, and homerevenueh/homewealthcreations website led me to Brainhost misleading me into believing that I could work for 1 hr at home and make some money by just clicking on some links.
Anyway after 2 1/2 days and night of looking into i found out i had been cheated. Tried to get a refund of 129 dollars and nothing happened. In fact to sms the no. they give, it costs 159 dollars on skype.
Now every month 9.95 dollars are being deducted from my account and I have not got any response from any of the emails i ve been sending. In fact some of the emails just bounce back. I don t know wat to do and time of 2 months is running out.

sir kindly get refund of my purchased amount towards receipt no eb785-bb191 $44 90 i cant get your link i am simply loosing my money kindly get the refund

I'm sick of the crap! I've tried and tried again to get my site running and I ALWAYS get sent to the "sorry, this transaction declined blah blah" page! Every. Frakking. Time. Thankfully they haven't taken any money from my account...and if they do, they will be hearing about it! Brain Host...you truly are a failure and a disgrace to all Hosting companies. No wonder people don't trust the internet! With businesses like yours it's no wonder!

Jenny M. is none other than the infamous Mark Jenney. Who ought to be ashamed of himself.

i feel so sorry because i lost money. i worked so hard for it and i thought that this brain host can help me. but its completely opposite. i feel so depressed about this. i cant understand if why are there people who take advantage to others. enjoy the money you got from hardworking people. you are all just lazy, stupid, liars and enjoy spending the money you have got from all of us. i know one day you will get the price for being so selfish.

i name is kenneth blake can you call me please on moblie [protected] or [protected]

So, "Jenny Masters", it is just a coincidence that 1) the Ohio Secretary of State has BOTH NSA Technologies and Brainhost listed to Vincent Fisher. 2) your office is actually located at 4000 Embassy Pkwy, the SAME location as NSA Technologies 3) The address on your website "world headquarters" 3660 Center Rd Brunswick, Ohio is a UPS Mailbox Store, the same exact scenario as the bbb outlined in their warning for NSA Tech http://www.bbb.org/akron/business-reviews/work-at-home-companies/nsa-technologies-in-akron-oh-143348871, AND finally 4) your business is centered on taking credit card information from people for websites. All four things are JUST a coincidence? Come on, same game different name. Total SCAMMERS

Yeah, right! You're Jenny Masters just like Mark Jenny isn't Mark Warren! You are FRAUDS.

Hi everyone. I’m sorry if there’s been any confusion here. Brain Host is not associated with NSA Technologies in any way. We are strictly a web hosting company – we provide customers the opportunity to start websites and we give them the space to do it. My name is actually Jennifer Masters, and I work here in the Customer Support department. If you have any questions about Brain Host, you can contact me directly at Jenny.Masters [at] brainhost.com. As always, you can reach our customer support by phone at [protected].

Everyone please note that "Jenny M" at "Brain Host Customer service" is a fake name for the one and only Mark Jenney himself, one of the king scammers at NSA Technologies, Brain Host, and numerous other fraudulent websites setup to steal from people. Successfully sued by the State of Ohio for cheating people on the internet (Go here for a summary: http://www.legalnewsline.com/news/228776-cordray-seeks-restitution-in-new-lawsuit) ... they are right back at it again! You would have thought they would learn their lesson. Watch out for these guys!

BRAIN HOST SUCKS AND LIED TO ME TOO!
They were suppose to be giving me all these free upgrades when i first signed up but got nothing! Plus They have been charging me an extra 14.95 for each new site. They lie and false advertise and they have the a HORRIBLE customer support team.
MY ADVICE STAY AWAY FROM THEM!
Diane

This is aload of rubbish, I joined Brainhost.com around a week ago, paid them around $170 to build me a website, they did it in about 6 hour for free, my website was superb, but I found later it was not what I needed, no fault of Brainhosts just mine. I got back to them by e mail and asked for my site to be closed and the return of my monies, this was done after one day.By the way the websites are free, you just pay for the hosting etc.
Regards Terry Davies

brainhost chat support sucks.they offer suport from india.they speak dam hopeles english.chat opertor amanda, vincent, sophia, ronny are ridiculous.never solve problem.their servers r always down.they shuld hire gud suport team.

i agree with all complaints

Ghamilton is exactly right, it's just a matter of time. At their last scam company, most employees had no clue they were fraudulently billing and scamming people. One day they just let everyone go. They keep up a good illusion - take their employees out to dinner, big 5000th customer celebration parties, anything to keep the illusion going. They pay people to watch the web and try to hide complaints, staff heavy to keep new blood coming in. It's easy for them to throw a bunch of money at it when its unlimited as long as they keep perpetuating the scam. Bad guys, bad company.

Had simalar problems with brainhost, they are partnered or are the same company as goclickcash system, they have charged me lots and delivered nothing but a nice website.

People must understand who they are dealing with.
Vincent Fisher owned NSA Technologies and Upright Publishing.
He owned this company with his partner Mark Jenney (www.markjenney.com and www.markjenneycares.com). The company they worked with was IVY Capital which was recently shut down by the FTC for scamming people out of over 40 million dollars. Vincent and Mark got rid of NSA Technologies before any ties could be made between the two companies.
They fired over 150 people at NSA Technologies while still buying themselves cars, houses and other luxury items.
Brain Host is just another front for their old company, its only a matter of time before the FTC makes the connection. Please dont use Brain Host.

I wouldn't have your job. You operate in the land of "Fruits and nuts". I have had your service for a short time, but I can see that the majority of complaints are a direct result of the ignorance of the subscribers. Your plan and associated charges seem very well spelled out...however it is important to read them as some have failed to do. Keep up the good work!
