Excellent agent, asset. Knowledgeable and patient. Slightly eager but that's a good thing. He should probably be in the next promoted role

Absolutely terrible.

Absolutely terrible.
I am an intelligent, computer literate customer.
Trying to get help from this company is like wading through treacle, almost impenetrable. The bot which answers the phone will chuck you off the call if you don't answer to their satisfaction. The multiple layers of security aren't recognised.
On top of this their actual humans (when you finally get through) do not tell the truth - I rang to update my payment details and also cancel some domain names. I was assured that if I updated my details first the payments for the domain names I wanted to cancel would not go through. They did. Instantly. I was then issued with a 'credit note' rather than a refund - cue another frustrating round of trying to get through to a human and being chucked off 4 times.
Apparently I will eventually get a refund but it will take 10 days.
Shysters.

The person I spoke to named June I believe was extremely helpful and thorough, explain explaining everything step-by-step perfectly.
It’s honestly refreshing for a call centre agent to be so helpful and insightful.
All I can say is give this guy a raise.
Many thanks, will definitely be using ionos for any future ventures that I’ll undertake and recommending you to people who need like Services.
