About 2002, I applied and paid for a website with Yahoo/Geocities.
After some months I realized that the Yahoo Geocities system was incompatible with mine. No pages could be viewed. I was based in the UK at the time.
I tried countless times to make contact, with zero results.
Eventually I tried to obtain a refund. Again, zero results. Requests for them to contact me were also ignored.
I was acting for a registered charity in the UK and did not approve of our paying for zero results. Not a large amount was involved, but we resented paying money and receiving nothing and getting "no cooperation." I think it was around $80. The website address I hoped for never materialized. The year might have been as early as 1999.
I think a large firm such as Yahoo should have been willing to listen to our complaints. They obviously were not.
