GoDaddy vs. Online.net 2020

l these negative reviews come from. Might be from the competition, who knows. People that complain that they had to wait 24 hours before their server got rebooted are clueless. Even when you can't authenticate on your server, you can still reboot it or shut it down and later start it back up from the admin webinterface provided by online.net ... so why would you wait x minutes ?!?
In 30-60 minutes it is re-installed with the OS of your choice and restore your data from backup.
The times that I had to contact support was with questions about billing. I received an answer an hour or two later. Even when the question was asked at 22:00 hours CET !
In short I highly recommend online.net !

I would be more than happy to check it for you. Before we proceed further, could you please provide me with your customer number and the 4-digit PIN on the secure forms sent below?

Thank you so much. Checking it for you

Alright! I can see that the domain was renewed with the full domain protection. You can get the refund for it but you need to cancel the protection from your domain. Are you sure you want to remove the protection, once it is cancelled your domain's information would no longer be kept hidden on internet and it would be visible to everyone. If you want to proceed with cancelling it then please do it or you can let me know if you are facing issue in cancelling it.
DUGGAL, RAVI at 14:59, Jun 3:
Just checking, are we still connected?
