As with others sbmitting reports here, I too paid the initial £4.99 for the software package, and a further £48.50 which was to Brainhost for the provision of a basic website and for six months webhosting. The website and everything else seemed fine and I was not expecting to hear for from them for at least 5 months to pay for any future webhosting required. I was also being linked to other sites and being asked to pay for several packages to gain access to companies such as Google etc. To link advertising and make money from adsense type schemes. I knew that Google give this service to websites free if they are happy with the content of your website so I dumped that offer thankfully. Since then I have been inundated with emails from, one, Jason Taylor with further links to sign up to click ads schemes. All scams from what I can see.
Now, to my amazement I have seen whilst doing my online banking another £65.99 has been taken from my account only 14 days after my initial contact with the company.
On the face of it the whole setup seems a very good official service and I was quite happy with what I was provided. My grudge is that I was not made aware at any stage; that I was (as my bank told me today) subscribing to this company. My bank are now in the process of blocking any more payments and seeking reimbursement.
