Globat tried to automatically upgrade me over ten times within a year. I've emailed as well as talked to their customer service on many occasions to stop, but they continued to try to automatically upgrade me. At last, I went to another ISP. |

Globat was recently purchased and the new owner moved all the sites to a new platform. The move changed files and the moved sites were unrecognizable. They moved me back to the old platform and sent me an email ordering me to find a new server. No refund! |

6 yrs. Thousands of bucks in billable time wasted (not kidding) waiting for globat server to reconnect, all day long. Incomprehensible tech support. Dubious business practices. Unreachable most of the time. Run. Save yourself. |

The automatic upgrades are maddening. They seem to come in batches. Careful searching required to opt out.On the technical side I can never understand why Globat site will be up, but my site is down. Explanations haven't been believeable. |

Steer clear. They are intent on making your life difficult through undesired upgrades and extremely poor customer service. I do not recommend Globat at all. |

Globat continually applies "automatic upgrades" to your account, upgrades they charge you for unless you beat them to the punch and opt-out. They are more expensive than other hosting services and the unexpected charges lead me to highly not recommend th |

GLOBAT IS A TERRIBLE company. They advertise a one year free rebate just to get people to sign up. DO NOT GET TAKEN BY THEIR FALSE ADVERTISEMENT. I have enclosed a link to their fraudulent rebate: http://www.hermanstreet.com/store/smarthtml/globat-free-o |

I read many adverse online reviews about Globat LLC. Not my experience. They provide me an effective platform competitively priced. Servers quick & propagate well. No.1 placings on Google. Very satisfied customer for seven years with many sites hosted. |
