A fantastic experience!

A fantastic experience every time I deal with xneelo. Prentholl was the consultant that helped me to restore a backup and to also move some of the restored files around. She took extra care of the details and made sure we got everything working.

Multi-year battle with Xneelo Spam filter

I have been having a multi-year battle with spam on my hosted email server with Xneelo. They refuse to do anything about it, they keep telling me to whitelist every single email I want to receive. The important ones like Medical Aid, the Bank, even my supermarket delivery invoices are flagged as spam, but yet, I receive at least 10 scam emails every single day. Support is non existent. No one wants to challenge their company to offer better value. When I moved one of the domains off their server, they cocked it up so badly, embedding viruses in the compressed files, not providing any support, and basically my clients lost all their emails. Move the filter up from 5 to 6 (out of 10), I hardly get any emails. Drop it to 4 out of 10, I win lotteries I've never bought tickets for, get sent inheritance money from Nigerian princes, and I have to renew my Spotify premium every month or risk losing all my play-lists.

Do not host your stuff here.

Xneelo Hosting

I have been running multiple projects with Xneelo, and for the past 4 years, I have not even thought of migrating my services to another hosting company.

I just got out of a chat with one of the Agents(Zane) and they assisted promptly and everything is well in place again. They have a dedicated team, that even when you encounter an error in the evening they always available to assist, last wee I g0t assisted after 21:00PM Imagine, who else does that😂🙏🏽🩵

Exploitative practices and no goodwill [Updated]

UPDATE: The CS team at xneelo has since followed up to make things right. They have committed to look at how things are communicated to the elderly to ensure that this is not something that happens again. They also in good faith will refund a modest amount of what my mother was charged which was not the point of this review, but it shows them taking ownership, which is all I wanted. Thank you.

---

I discovered that Xneelo had been charging my elderly mother over R100 per month for years for a hosting account she did not need. All she had was email forwarding for her domain, yet they told her she required full hosting.

When I finally moved everything away, they called to ask why we cancelled. I explained the situation, and the representative sounded empathetic until I asked whether they would consider refunding even a couple of months as a gesture of good faith. At that point, the empathy stopped, and the answer was a flat refusal based on "services" rendered.

This was not just a matter of a few rands. It was years of unnecessary billing from a company that should have known better. I was ready to leave it alone, but since they called me to "follow up," it’s only fair to share my experience.

If you value honest advice, transparency, and a company that treats its customers fairly, I would look elsewhere.

Competing to be the worst service provider

I have had many calls and complaints regarding the declining level of service and quality of service yet again, I am experiencing the same level of "not give a damn". This company constantly pushes "live chat" yet, not everything is able to be resolved via live chat - but they refuse to acknowledge or address this. This company used to be one of the top hosting providers now you get better service from telkom and afrihost. The motto "trusted in hosting" is definitely not visible here.
