Comment on Desperation: Go Daddy calling customers, begging them to stay

Comments

So one call was actually reported, and this constitutes "desperation" on GoDaddy's part? Maybe there's more going on (one other person on this thread got called as well), but this story by itself falls far short of its headline.

I'm not familiar with GoDaddy's practices, but couldn't the volume of the transfer alone have triggered the call?

I tweeted[1] yesterday and today I get a call from Godaddy (I didn't take it, they just left a message). I can't imagine that they are literally calling anyone they can trace back to a name, but hey, maybe they are.

But you hadn't actually started to do the transaction yet? Interesting.
