    Godaddy - You Fuckers

    they just autorenewed 31 domains of mine that I wanted to let expire.
    That is $285,2.
    I don't have any domains on autorenew
    this is fucking fraud

      That sucks. I've never had that happen. And I've set auto on some and not on others. Contact them.

            Kind of unrelated but aren't you tempted to renew everything so that you have old domains?

                    ya, i am moving all my domains off godaddy, only 2 left. and if a person pushed a domain into your account they have a stupid rule you have to wait 60 days.

                        Can't be the case because I set all domains on manual renewal for exactly this reason!!!

                          I hate those wankers - I know its a bit late now but use NameCheap for everything.

                          GoDaddy are all about the upsell - Im at the point where I wont buy cheap domains from people who use them. If its worth a few dollars then I will do it, otherwise its just hard work.

                                They did that to me too. I didn't even know I still had an account with them (after they hijacked my domain and put it for sale).

                                I'd say chargeback those bastards.

                                  yeah godaddy is scum and I've sent them numerous nasty emails about their shit ... I've had things like this with autorenewal happen before but not on such a large scale (only 2 domains) ... also what fucking pisses me off is they got all cocky when they did their stupid superbowl commercial last year - right afterwards they changed the order system so that when you order new domains it doesnt let you set nameservers ... then if you forget to immediately login,unlock, and reset nameservers again theyll use your new domain for their spam for 2-3 days >:O ... and then they do this new shit with shorter expiration periods and try selling your domain afterwards ... fuckin scumbags - I'm switching all of mine soon as well.

                                      Happened to me, too...I deactivated "auto-renew" and hope it doesnt happen again. Even though they did it to you with auto-renew off. Are you sure you didnt choose auto-renew when buying the domains?

                                        I purchased two sites couple of months ago and got the domains (godaddy) few minutes after they were pushed to my account

                                        is this somehting new???

                                          The issue is that after someone pushes the domains into your account, then you can't transfer them to another registrar for 60 days.

                                              I did. I just checked my account again after this charge appeared and still all domains are set to manual renewal

I've had things like this with autorenewal happen before but not on such a large scale (only 2 domains) ... also what fucking pisses me off is they got all cocky when they did their stupid superbowl commercial last year - right afterwards they changed the order system so that when you order new domains it doesnt let you set nameservers ... then if you forget to immediately login,unlock, and reset nameservers again theyll use your new domain for their spam for 2-3 days >:O ... and then they do this new shit with shorter expiration periods and try selling your domain afterwards ... fuckin scumbags - I'm switching all of mine soon as well.

                                                              I buy domains daily via them, you can set your nameservers during ordering no probs.

I also had the same problem with IPowerweb when I hosted some sites with them. They autorenewed everything and charged me like $500.

                                                                        The good news is that they made it right and I got all of my money back. It's just a pain in the ass to have to deal with.

                                                                              Granted GoDaddy is cheaper but DirectNic will give quantity discounts.

Make a dispute on the charge via the PP site on your account. GoDaddy has 10 days to answer the dispute and if they dont Paypal put s the money back in your account. And even if the do answer and ya dont like the answer you still can keep disputing it and fuck GD over trying to get that money. I had a trial
                                                                                  Napster account for 30 days and set it up on my PP account. After the trial I couldnt figure out how to cancel the acct and couldnt even uninstal the fucking software. When they renewed me via PP for 15 bucks I filed a dispute. Napster never answered in the 10 days and I got my money back.

                                                                                      Even though I automatically cancel renewal on the non-domain product they still renewed a bunch of stuff without my knowledge.

                                                                                            Perhaps the original PayPal transaction was set as "recurring" - either within PayPal ...or more likely within GoDaddy's own billing system.

                                                                                            trax and pushpills, go into PayPal payment history and see if the purchases are marked as "recurring" ...

                                                                                            They probably aren't within PayPal, but it would be interesting to know either way...

                                                                                            Again, my guess is that GoDaddy internally treats some PayPal transactions as recurring.
