Hi Chris,
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear about your experience and understand how frustrating unexpected charges can be.
After reviewing your account, we weren’t able to find any record of a prior cancellation request before your recent chat with us. That said, we want to make sure this is resolved for you. As of Friday, August 22, we’ve processed a refund for your most recent invoice, and your services have been canceled per your request.
We appreciate your patience while we worked through this and apologize again for the inconvenience. If you have any further questions or need assistance, our support team is always here to help.
Sincerely,
The Liquid Web Team

Hello Roby,
We’re truly sorry to hear about your recent experience. Your concerns are very important to us, and we’d like to clarify a few points.
At Nexcess, we do not retain customer data once a server is terminated. When a server is deleted, all associated data is permanently removed unless the deletion process is caught within a short window (approximately two hours).
This brief window exists solely to allow restoration in the event of an accidental termination. After that period, the data is fully and irreversibly deleted. We do not maintain backups of customer environments, so once deletion is complete, recovery is not possible.
We understand how critical your checkout issue was, and we regret that you felt unsupported during that time. Providing timely assistance is a priority for us, and we are actively reviewing your feedback to strengthen both our support responsiveness and communication.
We’d welcome the chance to discuss your case directly to ensure your concerns are fully addressed. Please contact us directly so we can review the details together.
Thank you for sharing your experience, it helps us improve our service.
Sincerely,
The Nexcess Team
Great phone support available when I need it
Great support representative I spoke with on the phone earlier. I've spoken with him a few times in the past as well.
He's always very helpful, patient and knowledgeable and does everything he can to help me with whatever my concerns or issues are.
Please let him know.I think he's great and you should definitely make sure he gets a raise and some type of acknowledgment.
It is because of great support staff like him that I rely on when I need to call phone support. It is because of this great live phone support that I became a customer of liquid web, and will continue to be, as long as I can talk with live phone support. Without it, I would have to find another hosting provider who does.
Thank you.
Sincerely,

They are playing games and NOT refunding my money
I paid for 2 full years of service with liquid web hosting for my websites. Hoping for a looooong time smooth transaction, but it had lots of problems with them, they couldn't resolve our issues and even their supervisor said that they could only help with what they know. So, what ever they don't know and beyond their skills they will not be able to help with. I requested a refund, they said they've sent the refund to my account but confirming with my bank, I still didn't receive any refund. It's been going on since June 3rd. I asked to send me a receipt that they sent the money, they said they've already sent, which I didn't receive. I am still waiting on my refund or a proof (receipt) that they've sent the money. Even though they said they sent the receipt via email, they are still checking about sending the receipt again to confirm that they've sent the money. Why would they NOT send the receipt so I can follow the money with my bank.

Hi Wael,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We truly understand how frustrating it must be to wait on a refund while also dealing with service issues, and we’re sorry that our handling of this situation has added to your frustration.
A refund was originally initiated in June, but due to an unexpected processing issue, it unfortunately did not complete as intended. As soon as we became aware of this, our team worked closely with our finance department to resolve the matter, staying in touch with you and monitoring the process throughout.
We sincerely apologize for the delay and the confusion it caused. We can confirm that the refund was successfully reprocessed and sent on Friday, August 22nd. You should see it reflected with your bank shortly, but if you encounter any further issues, please reach out directly. We will provide immediate documentation and assistance to help track it down.
We value your trust and regret that your experience has not reflected the standard we strive for. Thank you again for your patience as we worked to correct this, and please know we are here to support you should you need any further help.
Sincerely,
The Liquid Web Team
Gone to hell
Since phone support went and anyone who has any idea of what they’re doing was replaced by idiots, my business has been crushed by emails not working, basic support requests going unanaswered for days and live chat f**king off for a sandwich mid conversation, this company has really gone to hell.
If you’re thinking of joining, don’t. Plenty of companies out there that offer proper customer service and the only vote we get is with our wallets.

This hosting website has scammers and fraudsters on the websites. When, I tried to tell this hosting site about 2 of there websites that scammed me out of money(I have receipts), they kept sending me to an abuse form, that doesn't work and when I tell them this through chat, they all of a sudden log out. Some of these websites, they are hosting are located in Amsterdam, Austria and other countries, scamming people in the U.S. I bet they had a lot of complaints before & I pray the FBI and all those other companies & agencies are looking into because Liquidweb, Allows this type of criminal behavior

Exceptional Support from Liquid Web
Truly outstanding phone support by Kate! She was extremely knowledgeable and patient as she upgraded the PHP settings on my server for each domain and subdomain. After each upgrade, I tested the sites to confirm they were working properly, and she stayed on the line throughout the process. I appreciated her professionalism and efficiency. This was 5-star support in every way—thank you, Liquid Web!

A 'known issue' taking our VPS down, every day!
We've only just moved to LW, so it's really sad that we're already experiencing such severe service failures.
Two mornings in a row, I've woken up to the following error message taking down our eCommerce websites:
"Misdirected Request
The client needs a new connection for this request as the requested host name does not match the Server Name Indication (SNI) in use for this connection."
Yesterday, I was told this was a 'known issue' and it was fixed in 10 minutes. But, this morning it is back again! We've now had around 10 hours down time within 28 hours and LW are arguing about whether this breaches their SLA! This is a very expensive 'managed' VPS!
A very disappointing start to our LW hosting.

Hello,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We sincerely regret that your first days with us have not met expectations.
We understand how disruptive and frustrating downtime can be, especially when every minute matters. The error you're encountering, related to SNI mismatches, is certainly not the standard we aim to provide, and we’re deeply sorry for the repeated disruptions.
When issues like this arise, especially if they’re part of a known root cause being actively addressed, our goal is always to resolve them swiftly and transparently. We also take SLA concerns seriously and aim to ensure our customers are treated fairly under the terms of their service.
That said, we recognize this has been an unacceptable start to your journey with us. We'd love the opportunity to turn things around and help restore your trust. If you’re willing, please reach out directly with your ticket or account number. We’ll make it a priority to work with you toward a resolution and ensure long-term stability for your VPS environment.
Your feedback helps us improve, and we genuinely appreciate you giving us the chance to respond.

Support almost non-existent
We have a managed server and our backups have not run in 3 days. We can no longer find a phone number for support. No one is available on chat in evening. The only response to our ticket is from over 24 hours ago ... "My name is Pradeep, and I'll be assisting you today regarding the slow backup.
Please allow me some time to look into your request, and I will update you when I have more information. Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns in the meantime."

7/23/25 - support after the review above has been much better, problem has been fixed, changed from 1 to 3. Would be a 5 if my support ticket was handled in reasonable amount of time. Hopefully next time ...

Save yourself the hassle
We have been with Nexcess for over 9 years, and the service has progressively worsened, with the cost of hosting increasing at the same time (every couple of months).
If you have an issue with your website and raise a ticket with their "24/7" technical support, do not have any expectations whatsoever you will receive a knowledgeable response. The responses will often not address the issue, and you will often go around in circles waiting a couple of hours between each response no matter how clearly your question is phrased.
Escalation to a supervisor used to work to get a adequate response, but now even this request seems to be ignored.
After submitting a cancellation request for being a loyal customer for 9 years, there was no attempt to even find out the reason for the cancellation, instead the cancellation was expedited (not that we were going to stay). This just shows the little value they have for customers.
Save yourself the hassle if you run a serious website and go a hosting company that cares about their customers and service.

Hi Niral,
First and foremost, thank you for being a Nexcess customer for over 9 years. We truly appreciate your loyalty and are deeply sorry to hear that your recent experiences have not met the standard you rightfully expect and that we strive to deliver.
Your feedback about our support responsiveness and escalation process is especially concerning. We understand how critical it is to receive clear, timely, and effective assistance when your website needs attention. What you've described does not reflect the level of service we aim to provide, and we regret that this has been your experience.
We also regret that your cancellation process didn’t include an outreach to understand your concerns more deeply. Listening to long-standing customers like you is essential to how we improve, and we missed an opportunity to do that here.
Although you've chosen to move on, our team has already reached out to express our sincere apologies for falling short of your expectations. We've also assured you that your concerns are being taken seriously, and that your feedback is being used as an opportunity to improve. From internal support processes to escalation handling, we are committed to identifying and implementing the corrective actions necessary to regain the trust of customers like you.
We value every customer, especially those who have been with us for nearly a decade, and it’s never our intention to make anyone feel overlooked or unappreciated. While we respect your decision, we truly hope we’ll have the chance to earn back your confidence in the future.

Dylan responded very quickly compared to I already had made 3 requests starting yesterday. Some of the answers support gave me I had no idea what they meant so i really couldn't do anything constructive with the advice. Dylan took care of the websites that no one else had yet; then spent a couple minutes and helped me set up Thunderbird which is my own problem not really part of Nexcess tech i'd think. Although it did work before I migrated, but now to thanks to Dylan it works again and in fact my migration is now complete and I'm back up to speed better than we were at our previous host. Thank you I hope an think I'll be happy here at Nexcess! And ps even though I really don't understand that much about what we've been doing through this migration process, everything we have done I do understand now and I saved all the links and all the emails for future reference.
