horrible service
I'll have to give a little backstory in order for this to make sense:
I had been with this hosting company for nearly five months and have dealt with this horrible service - servers continually had horrible ping times if not went completely down - horrible support - I was upsold to every time I went to complain that my users weren't able to access my website and/or the downtimes I spotted on Integro - and horrible management - this is coming in a moment.
Every day my users would experience some sort of lag and even some days some loss as to data. I complained about this for months, every chance and opportunity I had.
Did I mention that also every time I complained, I was given the same "the server is fine - pay 100+$$ for a VPS if you don't want to deal with this" treatment? This is the upsale I was talking about. No one would admit to any problem or even listen to what I had to say. Regardless of my admin/netadmin experience.
So it eventually came to filling a complaint to the BBB over these issues, being that I was promised 99.9% uptime[!], that their servers hardly ever went down . . . the usual lines.
Finally, after arguing with the "the servers are fine and you're past your 30 day money back guarantee" crap - can you believe they actually said that in my response to my BBB's complaint too? - they finally issued me a refund . . . sans 25$$. The 'fee for registering a domain name'. When everyone else charges 10$$. Anyway, that isn't even the worst of it. Not a very short time after I receive this email did they completely cut off my service. No grabbing my domain name, no backing up my website, no backing up my database. No access, period.
Fine. Whatever. I ask them for my backups, they say "this goes to support". That's fine. Or it would have been had I not already requested my domain unlocked and my epp key so I can move my business - yes, this is my domain for my internet business - to another host. Apparently these people are playing sore with me since at this point in time (right now) the only thing they've managed to do is merge my tickets and basically reprimand me for having more than one ticket.
No matter that I asked for my backups. Doesn't matter to them. My domain? Doesn't matter. Creating a ticket in their support center and a ticket in their billing center, who contacted me in the first place? Horrible! How could I? No matter that I was told in their live chat to request my domain unlocked through support.
So I'm still waiting on my backups/domain to be unlocked so I can move my business, which has been down since this started, to another host.
Don't ever go with this company if you want any kind of decent support. Or even lousy. They didn't seem to listen to me, at least.
domain name stealing and extortion
stay away from green geeks - greengeeks.com greengeeks. ca This company is a misleading misrepresentation web hosting company. Their Deals and hosting packages are all lies.
Here is one of their scam. It is the domain name stealing scam.
Green Geeks has a "Free domain for life" promotion, in which they claim that if a customer signs for a hosting plan they get a free domain for life. The truth is that it is a 'domain name stealing exercise', or a 'force customer to host with green geeks for ever' scam.
Here is the scam. When a customer signs up for website hosting with green geeks, and they get a new domain name or transfer their domain to green geeks, their domain name fee is deducted from the hosting plan. Inevitably it appears that the domain name was for free. However the scam is that, the customer is never ever given the account information to manage their domain name. Such that the customer can not independently renew their domain name or even transfer their domain name to another host.
Basicly a domain name belongs to the entity that has the domain name account information.in essence green geeks is owning this customers, domain name under the pretext that they have provided them with a domain name for free. When the domain name expires, if the the customer chooses not to renew their hosting plan with Green Geeks, but wants to retain their domain name or even transfer it to another host, they are asked to pay an ambiguous amount of money even upwards of $250. Refusal to renew your domain name with Green Geeks, will practically result in the customer losing their domain name unless they pay the asked amount of money to green geeks.
So if a customer has a premium domain name and does not want to renew with green geeks or does not want to lose it, they are forced to pay what ever amount of money that green geeks asks them to pay for domain name renewal or hosting plan renewal. Because the customer does not have their domain account information, they are at the mercy of green geeks. They cannot choose to host elsewhere. Note that at the time of Domain renewal, the customer's hosting fees may have increased from what they paid previously at time of sign up. So this exercise can go on indefinitely as long as you host with Green geeks.in essence the customer does not own their domain name. If you request for your domain name acount information and want to transfer your domain name, you will be expected to pay an exorbitant amount of money. They claim that they are getting a refund they gave you initially for the Free domain name. they then charge you what ever they want.
So if you have held your domain for at least a year, you will have already obtained some form of internet notoriety, in the form of google page rank, or even dedicated website traffic, so it is also in green geeks interest that they keep your domain, They will make it as hard as possible for you to transfer your domain name, such that they themselves set up one of those advert based directed websites on your domain.
The Green Geeks software is terrible and their service is even worse!
refused refund for services not received
I signed up with Green Geeks webhosting and paid for a year in advance specifically because they offered a full site transfer with a year prepaid. I sent them my transfer details and they said the files were transferred but upon checking, none of my files were transferred at all. I had to completely set up and transfer all my own files. I ran into a few snags with the available space to finish the transfer. To be specific, I had to alter the php. ini file. I sent them a support ticket asking how to change the upload amount and never heard back. Frustrated, when I hit the next snag, I realized that I simply did not have the time to do the transfer myself and do all the research necessary to make it happen. I sent in a request to cancel my service and receive a PRORATED refund. I was told that in order to get a full refund I had to request it within 30 days of signing up and I was requesting to cancel on the 31st day. I replied that I was not interested in a money back guarantee and was happy to pay for the 31 days that I had service but I wanted a refund for the 11 months that have not even happened yet. Each email I received back from billing was unbelievably rude and completely ignored anything I was saying. They gave me a 2 mo credit (instead of 11) and then when I said, no, I want to cancel and get a refund, they took back the 2 months credit and told me I was not entitled to anything because I canceled on the 31st day of service.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
After a year I decided not to renew my web site .I got a dozen emails asking me to renew .Choosing to not answer these emails .They took it on themselves to take 95 dollars out of my credit card saying you have to fill out a form to get out. Which I had no idea until I got the bill from my credit card co. and then they say it is to late no refunds. This is slimy business at its best .avoid them use anyone else.
I had a similar experience in struggling to get a refund from them, and I would be interested to know if you ever got your refund?
In March 2014 I signed up for a year's web hosting with GreenGeeks LLC, as recommended by many online reviews.
2 days after submitting a payment of $142.56, I received an email stating that my "application" for web hosting had been refused and I would not be able to use their services. No explanation was given as to why they refused to let me host a perfectly reasonable (web design) site on their servers. They said that I would recieve a refund via PayPal (the method of payment) within 14 days.
No refund was ever forthcoming.
I have attempted to recover the funds via Paypal's resolution centre with no luck, and have emailed the company on an almost weekly basis since. Now, in July 2014, I have not received a response from any of my emails, other than one to say that the matter had been referred to the billing team and I would receive a response within 14 days. Still, no money... and am not sure it will ever be returned.
An awful, awful company whose actions are tantamount to theft. Avoid them like the plague!
I find it interesting that GreenGeeks have failed to respond to this complaint on the board. Typical of their horrid treatment of their customers.
I, myself, am waiting for a refund for 4 months after they took payment but refused to provide me a web hosting service. They do not respond to emails. Bit of a scam company in my opinion.
beware
I used GreenGeeks for 2 months with my new website and they suspended me because of excessive use of my website (200 hits a day) I paid for a year in advance for unlimited Space, Unlimited Bandwidth. They refuse to talk with me on the phone and said they will only email about this. They turned me off with no warning, no chance to get a backup of my site so I could move it or anything.
I am out my 1 year in advance I paid them and not service. DO NOT TRUSDT GREENGEEKS HOSTING
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
Please Guys, how can I raise a complaint about GreenGeeks? Have any of you managed to get your money back, at leat the remaining tenure, after the 30 days?
I paid for 3y because I thought it was a green, honest and secure hosting, but basically after a year of having a few dormant domains there I have decided to start working on them and Boom! Malware all over! Hacked big time! That was just after installing WP from their cpanel. GG dismisses like it your fault, does not answer any questions regarding to security or company' complaint procedure. The fact is I have never have experienced such a breach of security on sites that I run for years, nevertheless ones that were basically dormant. C'mon WP from your on Cpanel!
They STILL suck mightily! They say unlimited storage then limit you to 150, 000 files (inodes). They say unlimited email accounts then limit your entire domain to sending 100 emails per hour. What if you had 100 email accounts well guess what you would have to wait your turn to send an email. No where on their site does it say there's a limit like this. I started moving a few sites to them and found it out the hard way. You also can't cPanel/WHM transfer away from them. There is no backup option in the cPanel you get from them. They charge you ($$) to make a full cPanel backup. They like green alright and it's getting all the money they can get from people should be called GreenGeek$. Their customer service doesn't answer your questions at all they just run you around in circles until you give up it seems. Worst hosting provider experience I have had to date by far!
I have canceled the plan before actually using the hosting because I saw this thread. It's been already 1 month since I canceled. I have sent numerous emails and called the support team also but they just keep saying I will see the refund soon. This company is a complete fraud you should avoid at all costs.
There are two sides with the Green Geeks that I can comment:
The first is amazing and that is customer support including a live chat which is always helpful. Their customer service is very helpful and they definitely know what they are doing!
The second side is HORRIBLE and that is their hosting itself, more specifically their VPS plans. As of today, their VPS plans are more expensive than the competition and in comparison their processor is much slower, with less RAM and less bandwidth. The only pro is the use of SSD versus regular HDD and the use of renewable energy which is to be applauded.
For the rest, the server keeps crashing over and over on a daily basis which has never happened with another hosting company I used, same plugins, same setup and same size, # of visitors, nothing out of the ordinary. I cannot count on them. They have potential but for now, thumbs down!
This review is way too nice. Greengeek's constant issues with technical problems, dingbat tech support, and other failures, has cost my company $3000 to date. Down time of domains and email is frequent. And since Greengeeks has inferior techs, it takes a day to more to get it back up. And Greengeeks likes to NOT give money back even when its their fault. Now we have to find a new host service and spend more money migrating.
Greengeeks is toxic.

Really very very bad support from billing team. no response since 11days now. they have debited my credit card & I don't even have any account with them. I had purchased one account but I cancelled it because the price highlighted on website is not actually given. also, they have deducted some amount while refund. the service is pathetic. hoping to get response after reading this on blog. attached is the print screen of chat & still now response.
I've been with greengeeks for several years. The upsides outweigh the negatives. The support at level 1 is relatively technically astute (compared to godaddy, bluehost or networksolutions as a few examples, who know nothing except how their own website works usually). They are pretty patient too. I have had problems over the years, some of them our fault, and still the help ranged from "saved our butts" to decent (sometimes the level 2 techs need a little extra push; some are a little resistant to review in depth until you have exhausted your own research I think, even when they know it might be their server issues), but I don't think any service is flawless. I like greengeeks overall. I guess that is better than neutral.
Scam web hosting. I paid 3 years in advance some hours and I wanted a refund. I was the only one who used the site and the limits got high! The limited the site's resources they lied about everything they said they're really mean liars. After more than 7 days of contacting many times per day they partially refunded me, they claimed a setup fee of like 15$ and a 14$ for the domain name that was allegedly FREE! [censored] greengeeks.
I fell into their trap I lost my money in vain. I failed the project I wanted to build.. I hated the web because of them...i can't trust any web host anymore
Green Geeks is the worst company I have ever dealt with. Their service is abominable, the staff is rude and condescending, and it is next to impossible to cancel an account. I have been trying since December 2013 to cancel my account. All my attempts go nowhere -I just keep receiving automated emails stating that they are unable to fulfill my request because of inaccurate information. What? So, I fill out the cancellation form again and again. Same automated email comes back. I have been trying to do as they ask, thinking it is probably me doing something wrong. However, after countless emails and endless frustration, I really believe they are messing with me, simply because I want to cancel. As of this writing, I am still unable to cancel my account, having received yet another automated email today stating that they cannot fulfill my request because of inaccurate information. As a small business owner, I am appalled by this, and truly perplexed. Why would a company resort to such tactics? It is disheartening.
So, consider yourself warned.
Problems after problems. Been with them for 3 years and I've had enough. Last week we were left with 13 customers without email for a full day, the reason: Opps, we changed DNS by mistake. This is only but ONE issue I've had over the years. Countless times I've asked management to call or even email. Did they? Nop.. STAY AWAY you are warned.
decieving money back guarantee and billing practices
Beware of greengeeks.com! here is my complaint against greengeeks.com
Com paints about greengeeks.com web hosting service. a warning: about greengeeks.com hosting service.
Don't make the mistake I made. this complaint against greengeeks.com is 100% accurate and truthful.
I placed my order with greengeeks.com yesterday and used the discount code boonex10 at checkout like they said to do for a $10 discount. greengeeks.com said if you pay with paypal they will refund the $10 discount after the account is charged. the refund never came and I sent and email to greengeeks.com billing dept. and received no response.
I have been a customer of geekhosting.com "no relation to greengeeks.com" for 12 years now and their tech support is the best & real 24/7 support. I was looking on boonex for a host because I am not having luck installing dolphin on my current host. I figured that I would try one of the boonex affiliates since they claim to be able to host dolphin without problems. I have tried switching hosts in the past with no luck. I compared all boonex affiliates and researched complaints online about each affiliate then choose greengeeks.com.
Greengeeks.com offers a free domain name and a 30 day refund guarantee when you sign up for a year. I usually use godaddy.com to buy my $7.20 domains but greengeeks.com said the domain was free and I had a 30 day money back guarantee so I had nothing to lose. right? very, very, very, wrong! more on this further down.
I first logged into my account on their linux server and into the linux control panel which I am very familiar with. I tried installing frontpage extensions on my account. an error message appeared and said it could not install the extensions. I have installed these extensions on over 300 websites in my lifetime and never had a problem until I switched to greengeeks.com.
Josh dargie at greengeeks.com customer service said for me to use a different approach to uploading my files as they could not find out a way to fix my problem. I said that was unacceptable because this is the way I work, and I like uploading using frontpage extensions. I have over 90 live websites to maintain. I won't change the way I operate my day to day business because they could not get a very, very basic key component of the control panel operating correctly.
I took a screen shot of the error message and sent it to them. they said that would help them out and they would get back to me a little later. that was the last I heard from josh. imagine a brand new customer being blown off by customer service on the very first day. I was told they would get right back to me because I had a lot of work to do and this was making my uploading take 4 times longer than normal. I waited until midnight and they never called or emailed back. what happened to the 24/7 customer service they offer? another huge lie. I don't think they even have a customer service dept. sounds like the company is being run out of a basement apartment.
I told them I wanted to take them up on their 30 day money back guarantee. after only one day of being their customer here is what they had to say about that free domain name & 30 money back guarantee.
I also told them that I would buy the domain name for the price I would have paid godaddy.com $7.50 so they don't lose any money on my account.
Here is the response I received from them:
James,
Thank you for your patience. we have canceled your account with green geeks and we have refunded your credit card, you should see that refund in the next 3-5 business days, if you do not please get back in touch with us and let us know. the refund was for the cost of the package ($95.40) less the cost of the domain name we registered for you which is ($24.95) so your total refund is $70.45.
This email they sent me says it all folks. this article is also being published on every single consumer complaint website on earth. people need to be aware of this poor hosting service and their deceptive guarantees and billing practices.
I warn all of you millions of people who read this posted online complaint at the hundreds of websites it resides on, beware of greengeeks.com
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
This company is a scammer. I bought hosting, I paid for it, but they did not deliver the server, they say they canceled the order, they say they did not receive the money, it was automatically refunded. But money was taken from my credit card, they are deceiving by lying, definitely do not shop from this company
I've spent the last few hours trying to buy a new domain via PayPal, but Green Geeks just keeps giving me the round around. As a result, I will not renew my membership. I'm not sure if Green Geeks will shut down my websites for speaking my mind or not, but if they do, that's their lost.
I have just had a similar experience with green geeks, DO NOT USE THEM! They keep money back after a refund and do not explain their procedures fully, all a bit of a con really. Also, I was just reading green geeks response to this original complaint on this thread, surely customers should be protected via confidentiality and data protection, I have NEVER experienced a business posting correspondence between a customer and a client on a discussion board. UNBELIEVABLE.

I was just checking out Green Geeks and noted their address on their "contact page" is not correct so I did a whois to find out ( if not obscured ) if the address matched.. it did not. So I started checking the whois snail address and did a google maps and street view of their facility. It looks like a home run business to me. In the course of looking for a true snail addy I happened onto this complaint.
If I wanted I could find the place they are buying web hosting/server service from... but it's not worth it. Also note, their domain Green Geeks was brought and paid for via godaddy and assume thats where the "domain" for the person who appears "ripped off" above was probably purchased. His mistake (the initial poster) was not going to consumer protection at the State AG's office where the business resides ( be it a house or an home office ) and filing a complaint. 2 days and a cancellation for cause does not merit any charges. Now they have unjustly enriched themselves at greengeeks, there may also be standing for a small claims suit.
I am so glad for sites like this. And individuals like Trey Gardner will, as they are in this instant, end up the looser. I am looking for a home for 5 vet oriented groups.. and he sure as hell isn't going to get the business.

I actually agree with the complaint against GreenGeeks. I just had to cancel my account after a few too many reliability and performance issues. My request was that the prorated amount of my remaining service be refunded back to me and that we both part ways satisfied. Josh Dargie fielded my issue and maintained a 100% robotic standpoint, spouting text from their FAQ and terms as opposed to handling my situation on a case-by-case. He also put the entire blame of my issue on me, attributing it to being a target for hacker attacks. I admit that this did happen, once. But well after other performance related tickets were submitted and I did quickly remedy the issue once notified as it was a security issue with WordPress.
GreenGeeks is one of those companies where they will patch the problem for you and move on, but when you are completely dissatisfied, they fall back on their policy text to "divest" themselves of you. There are so many other cost effective options out there to choose from.
99.9% uptime is a fabrication by GreenGeeks.
This is Trey Gardner CEO of Green Geeks.
I apologize for the delay in posting our reply to this complaint, I needed to take a couple of days to separate myself from the some of the emotional aspects I felt toward this former customer, their motivation regarding this complaint and the manner in which they have dealt with all of us at Green Geeks. I also apologize that my rebuttal to this complaint is a bit lengthy, I do think you will find postings from JR, the author of this complaint, toward the bottom, an interesting read.
In life you meet all types of people. Sometimes people you meet will make you marvel at the spectrum of personalities, attitudes and humanity that exist in our population.
I will explain a bit about our interaction with JR, however JR’s own postings to our ticket system, many of which you can find below, really are the reasons why I had to divest myself of this incident for a few days instead posting a reactionary reply and I think that his own words will vindicate us of his accusations.
JR is one of those special people. JR signed up for our service on September 11th, and had a frontpage extension issue for which we worked with him several times, got them working and somehow would then break on his end. We asked that he send us a screen shot of the error which he did not send us even though he states he did in his complaint.
By the next day we had fixed his issue and it had again broken on his end and he was ready to cancel his account, this was Saturday the 12th. He was informed that our billing department works on cancellations Monday through Friday and that he would be cancelled and refunded then, JR demanded his cancellation and refund right then and there. He also offered $7.50 for the domain we purchased for him and when he was told that the domain would cost $24.95, JR went into an unhappy place.
At Green Geeks we offer a free domain name with hosting accounts. If you purchase the domain and leave and want to take the domain with you we charge $24.95 for the domain, roughly expensed at $10 for the actual domain cost and $14.95 for administrative duties like changing the dns, adding privacy or helping you get the domain transferred to another registrar. This is a standard practice for web hosts that offer free domains with hosting.
Everything about the $24.95 domain charge can be found in our terms of service:
http://www.greengeeks.com/legal/tos.php
Section C under [Payment, Renewal, Cancellations]
And can be found in our knowledgebase section in the sales section regarding domains:
http://www.greengeeks.com/clients/knowledgebase/119/Free_Domain_For_Life__an_Explanation.html
Below you will read many of the email responses we received from JR. I was befuddled at first until I started to read more about JR. He indicates that he makes over $150k doing online blog marketing and can quickly syndicate his complaint to hundreds then thousands of web sites and get them to get listed high for our keywords. He also indicates that he purchased sites to make money off of our complaint, web hosting affiliate commissions from other companies who get listed as referral hosting companies next to the complaints about our company on his sites.
I started to suspect that perhaps that this wasn’t a coincidence having a major blowup over $24.95 where the other party is someone who owns over 30 web sites has a large income from blog marketing and then suddenly he is blogging his complaint all over the internet about our company and creating web sites to make money from those posts, a term he calls SLAMMING CASH, it would seem that he already knows what to do to make money off his complaints. And since he has been doing web sites and hosting for many years how would he not know that there would be a domain charge or look into possible charges if he decided to leave early? I have never been a conspiracy theorist but this did seem odd.
In any case conspiracy or just meeting the wrong person in the wrong frame of mind, I am proud of what we do at Green Geeks, we are a profitable, stable web hosting company with great service and support. JR was cancelled, refunded and notified by our staff on Saturday at 7:34 pm and was notified that the payment was less the $24.95 domain charge as per our terms.
For the rest of this complaint I will let some of JR’s own words speak for himself. These are clips of his postings to our email ticket (AKL-604733) in our system. To validate that these responses by JR are actually what he wrote please go ahead and email us at sales@greengeeks.com with the subject line “JR complaint PDF” and we’ll send you a pdf of our correspondence with JR to see that he actually did write all this.
HERE ARE JR’S OWN WORDS TO US IN BACKWARD CRONOLOGICAL ORDER:
FROM PAYPAL.COM REGARDING THE DISPUTE:
this is an absolute lie. This person stole my money. I want it refunded OR ELSE!
From Buyer - James R 9/14/2009 09:51 PDT
Cancel this claim. I have instituted a youtube campaign against this company letting people know how they operate. How their deceptive guarantees rip people off.

You guys just lit a fire under my ###. I just bought a bunch of domains
to be used as complaint forums against web hosting services. These ten
websites will be used as forums for consumers to make online complaints
against web hosting services.
My complaint will be the first on each website forum. I will market
other affiliate Green Hosting Ad Banners on the website to generate a
nice income right beside your complaint.
I think this could make me some slamming cash and get the word out about
your deceptive advertising tactics and guarantees as well as complaints
against other companies.

You ripped me off for $24.95. Each article I publish will is worth one
cent in GreenGeeks.com money.
What this means is I will be publishing 2495 complaints online against
you. Then we will be even.
Spend that $24.95 wisely now!

I asked for a refund as stated on your home page and you have not
provided that. I just finished the first article and am posting on
Boonex now! I offered to pay you what I pay Godaddy.com and you refused.
I would have bought it from them had i known that you were going to rip
me off. I have over 1300 registered domain names on Godaddy.com, most
sell ebooks. I will point 100 of these domains to this article online. I
gave you the chance to make it right with a full refund. Unfortunately
your time has run out. My article posting software is ready to go to
work online publishing my story on every Complaint website and others.
You had the chance to make it right. I tried to make it right by
offering fair market value for the domain name and you refused.
To Little To Late.

Do you realize what you just did to your company? You cannot fathom the
negativity this SEO optimized complaint is going to cost you.
You really are stupid geeks!
Posted on: 12 Sep 2009 7:41 PM
I have instituted a massive online article and forum complaint against
your company on over 200 websites including Boonex. Good luck with your
bad service, These complaints I am logging will cost you tens of
thousands of dallos in lost income. I will see to it! Boonex is my
first place to list this complaint. I am a master at SEO and will have
my article way up on Google. Before people can find your website they
will see hundreds of online complaints against your company. All from
me. Nice job. You charge me $24.99 for a domain your sell for $10 on
your website. More ammo!

i WILL ALSO US YOUR NAME IN EVERY BLOG!
Posted on: 12 Sep 2009 6:48 PM
I am not paying $24.99 for the domain name. You never disclosed this to
me before signup. You never mentioned that anywhere. You have just
created any enemy who will blog you right out of business,
You will lose ten of thousands of dollars when I get done blogging about
your deceit and fraud. Just watch! Boonex is my first stop and then onto
50 complaint blog sites.
I will get more than my $25 BACK.
Posted on: 12 Sep 2009 6:35 PM
I can offer you $7.50 for the domain name that was associated with this
account so you don't have to eat it. That is what i pay at godaddy.
Let me know if this works for you. I would need it transferred to godaddy.
Thanks,
Jim
This posting at 6:35PM was the start of JR & GreenGeeks dispute. After he offered us $7.50 we informed him our price was $24.95, we charge roughly $10 for the domain and $14.95 for the administrative costs for changing the domain's dns, putting up privacy protection and transferring a domain elsewhere, we believe that the administrative costs are exorbitant and we also informed JR that his refund would be taken care of on Monday, as it worked out one of our senior staff stepped in and he was refunded by on that Saturday but obviously this did not contend JR.. We offered several times to have myself Trey Gardner, the owner of Green Geeks call JR but we received no replies from JR other then threats.
I take a personal interest in any complaints about our service whether they come in from emails or are posted on web sites like this one. We run a tight ship and I want to make sure that all of our customers are 100% satisfied. I don’t think JR’s issue is justified for this reaction or this posting and I am glad that there was a method for us to communicate back to anyone who saw JR’s complaint to provide our perspective on this matter.
Thank You and good luck with your web site projects,
Trey Gardner
