Domain purchase process were far too complicated
whc.ca customer service and domain purchase process were far too complicated for me. As a result, I have decided not to use this account again and will be purchasing my domains elsewhere. I would like my account to be permanently deleted.

Customer support was flexible and quick to access
Customer support was quick to access. The chat bot quickly identified that my request was beyond its means, and connected me to a real person surprisingly quickly. The agent was very flexible and managed to support me without any complications. Very happy with how it turned out. I've rarely needed to speak with support, but each time they've been a dream to work with.

Unacceptable sales process
I went through an incredibly frustrating sales and onboarding experience with VHC and cannot recommend them. After two weeks as a paying customer, I still have not had any practical opportunity to use the service I paid for. That alone is unacceptable.
During the sales phase, I spoke with a live online agent based in South Africa. Since then, I have dealt with five to six different agents via email, seemingly spread across different locations, with no continuity, ownership, or coordination. Throughout the sales process, I clearly stated that a call with a technical specialist responsible for migrating my site from HostGator was essential, as I have several technical dependencies and custom software configurations that must be reviewed before any transfer. That meeting never happened.
Instead, immediately after payment, I received an email from a completely new and unknown WHC agent requesting that I provide full login credentials to my HostGator account. This account contains highly sensitive personal and business data. Being asked to hand over credentials to someone I had never met or been formally introduced to raised serious security and trust concerns. It also caused me to question the legitimacy of the process and briefly worry about potential impersonation or fraud.
Overall, this was a deeply frustrating, unprofessional experience that significantly undermines confidence and credibility!

We’re very sorry to hear about your experience and understand how frustrating this must have been.
This is not the level of service we aim to provide, especially when it comes to onboarding and handling sensitive information.
Could you please share your details with us via private message so we can have an agent reach out to you as soon as possible and help resolve this situation?
Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Dedicated server customer for 10 years
Dedicated server customer for 10 years. Complete server failure down now for over 48 hours and no end in sight. Feel like I am just getting a runaround, working on it, high priority.. and yet... still down. My company is inoperable because of this. My staff cannot work and my operations are completely down. Thank you WHC for not caring

We’re truly sorry for the disruption this situation has caused—we understand how critical your services are and the impact this downtime has on your operations.
Our team is actively working on this as a top priority. The issue stems from a failure on the current server that cannot be permanently resolved, and we are in the process of provisioning a new server to restore your services as quickly and reliably as possible. We’re already in direct contact with you to ensure you’re informed every step of the way.
We appreciate your patience and the trust you’ve placed in us over the past 10 years, and we’re committed to getting you back up and running as soon as possible.
