AVOID AT ALL COSTS

I am a complete novice when it comes to websites And this was made clear from the beginning I was told an original figure of 599 for the website this seemed reasonable to me and around what I was wanting to pay so I decided to take the plunge and go for it This was what I was told that I would have a website for Total so far 599I sent over photos and detailed write ups of each item Then I was told that if I wanted them to do the write ups and make sure that the website had all the correct jargon to be compliant for google to accept it as an ecommerce website then it would cost me 480 I could of course do this myself I was told but as they well knew I had no clue what needed doing so I paid them to do it Total so far 1079 I was then informed that I have to pay them to have it on their servers I think the one year package was 500 or get great value on the 3 year deal which was 840 So of course I was talked into the 3 year deal Total so far 1919At the beginning whilst it was still in the latter parts of the design stage we were still ironing out some details I was told that the website had been made live After this I was then told that any further changes I would be charged for as it was now live and not in the development stage anymore I still hadn t finished it how I wanted it but I was then stuck with it as it was or pay to have more things done to it After a couple weeks of the website being live and after having some issues I was informed that I had to pay them to maintain it throughout the year basically just to keep the thing actually online so people could use it This was 400 Although this was probably the best 400 I spent with them as it had endless issues throughout the whole year And had I not had it it would have been useless by the end of January I was also told whilst paying this that it was for all maintenance of the site and I would incur no other charges I made sure I asked this as now I was at the point where I couldn t afford to keep paying out money for the site I was told would cost me 599 Total so far 2319Move on 4 months the site had been OK although on several occasions I had to inform them that the website was not working Which they got back online thanks to the 400 maintenance package Thank god I had that Then would you believe it I had some issues with the site where all my product pages went wrong and all merged over each other so nothing could be read I was told that this was due to a WordPress update which had to integrated into my website This of course was not free oh no For the small fee of 249 plus 49 for a malware plugin Of course I didn t have to have this I could just keep my website so no-one could read anything on there or order anything I was also explained that this was not part of my 400 maintenance package which I was assured covered everything So I had to pay it Total so far 2617 I hadn t asked for anything to be added throughout the whole year I then had an issue with the email account During this time I couldn t receive or send any emails I sent this across and asked them to rectify it I was told that because the site was receiving more traffic that I had to upgrade it this could be done for the small fee of just 499 Bargain By this time I was completely fed up of being ripped off by these lot and refused to pay it I then deleted some emails that I saved on there and hey presto it started working again Which brings us up to now Nearly a year to the day it went live in the first place I have a phone call from them last Wednesday saying that none of their websites are ADA compliant and that everyone has 5 days to pay them 500 to make it ADA compliant or the website will be taken down or find someone who can do this for you This by the way is an American law and also a 2010 act so should have been made compliant when they made the website for me last year When I said this I was told that it was my fault for not telling them that I wanted it made ADA compliant at the time As if someone who knows nothing about web development is going to ask for that to be done In this tiny timeframe I tried to find someone local who I could speak to about this I did and I managed to speak to them this very morning The earliest they could get me in for a chat They also stated that this is an American law and UK sites don t need to apply to it He runs various websites on the same WordPress program they use and has never heard of this I messaged them back at 11 15 this morning to say I had found someone who was willing to help me I didn t hear anything back After more messages to them and ringing endless times I finally got a response at 15 00 I was then told that if it wasn t done today by my guy then the site would be taken down and the only way to get it back up is by paying them to do it My site has now been taken down and I am left 2617 out of pocket with nothing to show for it DO NOT USE THEY WILL RIP YOU OFF
