hehe - I fell under the pressur of my curiosity.
I've signed up with 1and1.com!
though I'm already disappointed by their service. And if it wasn't for Mr. Bond a few posts up - I'd think I was getting screwed by a phone scam.
Here's how things went down:
6:34pm - I fill out the signup form and hit submit.
6:35pm - I receive a nifty email detailing what has to be done to get an account - like going to fill out a form for the phone verification thingy.
6:37pm - after filling out the form for the automated phone call giving me my PIN# to activate my account, I receive said phone call.
How that went down (this is where my insticts say I'm being screwed by a phone scam)
I'm requested to press 1 to proceed. I immediately think by doing so I'll be agreeing to some automated charging to my phone bill. Throwing my better judgement into the fire I proceed.
I'm then greeted with some silly message. then asked to press 1 again to receive my PIN#. I do so. I receive my 4 digit pin#.
6:39pm - I head to the site to enter my pin and get my account welcome email within 30 minutes of my entering my pin (so the website said)
8:25pm - I email their dippy sales team maybe? or whoever the heck answers the
[email protected] addy. I've not yet received my email with account details.
Now I WOULD have emailed support - had the contact page provided an email address for them. It simply said they accept support via email. *shrugs*
woulda called their 800#, but their closed according to the hours posted on the site.
So yeah - I'm getting what I paid for...
