Paid Weebly 240.00 January 2024 for Website Builder, cancelled September 2024 and according to them hav2 156.00 Credit, BUT THEY WILL NOT CREDIT MY ACCOUNT. So Im paying Weebly for the next 15 months for NOTHING. Total Rip Off, DONT DO BUINSESS WITH THIS UNETHICAL PIECE OF $#*! BUSINESS
Support was unable to fix my website form submissions. My contact forms were not recording submissions or sending me emails even though it showed my customers that their inquiry was submitted. I lost several leads this way.
3 different forms on my site were broken, showing the customer their form was submitted but not actually recording.
Support tried to fix the issue but when they couldn't they just stated that there was nothing wrong with the site on their end and they would not be trying anything else to fix it.
I had to recreate my entire site on a different hosting platform to get the form submission feature back.
I had been with them for over 10 years. I had several issues with them in the past from billing as well as technical support. I even had to recrate an entire retail site when square purchased Weebly and messed up the inventory integration.
However, after loosing so many customer leads, this was the final issue that convinced me to make the switch.
Even though they know I am the site / account owner and can even see my credit card information to confirm, they won't help reset my passwords. Only way to reset is via an "forgot my password " link and if you don't have access to the associated email account- you literally have to build a new site (per their support.) Unbelievable.
I spent 5 years building out a nice site on Weebly. An app glitch happened and I contacted their tech support. I was told to uninstall and reinstall the app. When I did this, it immediately deleted every piece of data created with the app on my site, basically gutting the site. Luckily I saw this and did not save the update.
Further communication with both Weebly and Square tech support produced no useful result. My site is now frozen in time, because if I save what's in the site editor, I burn down my site. There is NO backup or archive of the current or previous versions of the site, and changes cannot be rolled back.
So their tech support recommends solutions that burn down your site and they take no responsibility, they have apps on the site that will delete any content created with them over time, there is NO mechanism for backup, archive or rollback, and finally they will make NO effort to assist a user other than providing scripted answers that don't provide a solution. Buyer Beware!
The Weebly.com website has a serious flaw in its programming. If a file/picture is posted to a website with a common name, for example "Scan 1234", and later a totally different file with the same name is posted to that website, the program over-writes the original file/picture and places the latter file/picture in its place, causing incorrect files/pictures to be posted where they shouldn't be, even if its on a totally different webpage of the website..
Very dishonest company and people altough I had deactivated the recurrent mo subscription they kept
Charging me…lucky for me I had the paypal payment system thus I could just stop the automatic payment and get the refund thanks I had screenshots of the deactivation of services
Was once a low-end decent web site builder. After the Square purchase, I'm assuming - everything started to suck; the support, loading times, slow, basically just terrible all around. Times out when logging in, double login, overpriced.
If you're looking for a website builder that epitomizes frustration, inefficiency, and sheer lack of knowledge, then congratulations! #Weebly is the perfect disaster waiting for you. I've had the misfortune of using this platform, and let me tell you, it's been nothing short of a digital nightmare.
First off, let's talk about their so-called "customer service." I've encountered more knowledgeable toddlers than #Weebly's representatives. It's as if they've never even seen a website, let alone know how to build one. Every interaction feels like a blind leading the blind scenario, with me often having to educate them about basic website building concepts. How is that even possible?
SEO? Don't make me laugh. If you're hoping to rank anywhere on search engines, #Weebly might as well be a black hole where your website's visibility goes to die. Their platform is so outdated and clunky that even the most basic SEO practices become a Herculean task. And don't even get me started on their "SEO advice." It's like asking a fish how to fly.
Unresponsive? That's putting it mildly. Trying to get a hold of #Weebly's support is like trying to catch smoke with your bare hands. And on the rare occasion that they do respond, their advice is often so off-base that it's laughable. I've received better tech support from my grandmother, and she still uses a rotary phone.
In a digital age where website building should be intuitive, efficient, and supportive, #Weebly stands out as a glaring example of how NOT to do things. Their platform is a labyrinth of outdated features, their customer service is a joke, and their overall approach to helping users is nothing short of abysmal.
In conclusion, if you value your time, sanity, and online presence, steer clear of #Weebly. There are countless other platforms out there that offer superior service, better features, and actual knowledgeable support. Don't waste your time on this digital trainwreck.
They make it next to impossible to cancel your service with them. I had to search through their support service faqs. Even after that, it sent me to their automated chat system. It seems as though Square/Weebly is managed by one person. If this is the case, I refuse to give them my service. Hassle-free process my a$$
I've had one business website (teamhci.com) on Weebly for years, and manage another (@julielappin.com), also for years. Both are down, and the email addresses I use for each are also being rejected. After hours on Google trying to get support, piercing the requirements is based on user email -- which are being rejected. In addition, I ran into multiple support page dead ends. The whole experience makes me wonder if Weebly/Square in financial trouble, and trying to take my (prepaid for the year) businesses with them. Before Square, I would have rated Weebly 4 or 5 (out of 5) on support; right now it feels like 0/5.
I have had a domain and website through weebly since 2009. I pay annually for the domain, and it's threatening to unpublish it now even though I just paid $30 in Sept 2022 for a one year lease of my domain. It's March 2023, how can they keep $30 but unpublish my site simply because they want me to pay a subscription too. THERE IS ZERO CUSTOMER SUPPORT no one responds, there is no way to contact them. They are scamming me buy selling me my domain and then pulling back now.
I rarely write reviews, but my recent experience with Weebly has compelled me to share my frustration and disappointment with their service. As a web developer with extensive technical skills, I can confidently say that Weebly has severely let me down.
I have a domain with Weebly that I wanted to move to a more reliable hosting service, Hostinger. However, Weebly's interface has been so broken that I've been unable to unlock my domain. With no live chat available, I've had to rely on their slow email support system. It took them an entire week to respond to my initial inquiry, and another week to reply to my response. Worst of all, they didn't even fix the issue!
I then requested that they contact the registry to unlock the domain, as Hostinger's support team confirmed it was still locked. Weebly never replied. I've sent them two more follow-up emails over the past month, but have received no response.
This poor service has greatly impacted my brother's business, which relies on the domain. He's now been without a website for two months, all due to Weebly's lack of customer support and technical competence.
In summary, my experience with Weebly has been incredibly frustrating and disappointing. I would strongly advise others to stay away from their service. If you're looking for a reliable and responsive hosting service, look elsewhere. Weebly has proven to be a massive headache that's not worth the time or effort.
I PAID for a 10y Weebly website in 2014. After a change of ownership, they're asking me to pay again, with 2 years left to go. And they can't be contacted. Outrageous.
Weebly used to work fine for the 10 years I had it before Square took over. I knew it was doomed. Square is ruining it. I am being forced off the platform because of error codes that don't allow me to set up emails, and my website is being removed in 28 days because Square is refusing sign ups. Even though I have a Pro Account and paid for the year. They made sure they took my payment before telling me I am booted off. When Square, the company, started, they were unsecured and had tons of hackers getting into mine and other people's accounts. Since so many hair stylists were using Square, they catapulted it up but the company is still no better than it was with zero customer service. The guy literally responded to my emails 2 months later - 2 months too late - what kind of customer service takes 2 months to respond to hacking into an account? Meanwhile my account was hacked and they were saying I owe tons of money - from other countries - although my sales were in person not online. Because this guy was not addressing my issue, and blew me off, they have a record that I was contacted by him and didn't respond so now banned from Square? Square did not allow you to shut down your square account that contained my bank account number! This company is a joke and has ruined Weebly. Are they going to refund me the amount I paid a designer or the yearly fee I paid? Much less the time it is going to take to transfer everything somewhere else, and work involved. Unlikely.
They failed to apply our nonprofit and tax exempt status to our accounts, despite it being done 3 times for the same bill along with a letter of confirmation from them. When I disputed the bill because they would NOT provide me a detailed bill or why my bill went up almost double, they shut us down. I was 100% correct to dispute the bill. This is a multimillion dollars lawsuit because not only did my sight get hacked but they shut down all the rest of my sites that had nothing to do with this bill and that were either paid in full or free. Anyone know a good attorney willing to sue them for destroying our 911 Emergency Services and discriminating against the disabled and so on.
Practice from this company. Hacking tools not working charging our car me for services and tools not given etc...

I'd like to give 0 stars. Worst company I've ever dealt with. Charged my husbands credit card and then somehow got my credit card number - maybe through Go-Daddy? Because all the monopolies are in bed together now - and charged me my Canadian credit card AGAIN in U.S. dollars! 104.00 Canadian! I didn't find out until I did an audit on our credit cards and they kept me on the phone for over an hour with the 'team' trying to figure out why they charged me. They requested a screen shot of the charge on my credit card, which i emailed to them immediately. They asked me dozens of questions and kept putting me on hold while they ran after their tails. After all that, the rep came back and said they could not find any justification for the charge or any record of it - but because it was more than 4 months ago they weren't going to refund me! So I'm calling Visa and reporting their fraud to have it removed. Now I find their partner company go-daddy has been charging my credit card as well - in U.S. dollars! Stay away from these shysters and never leave your credit card on an account!
Be aware that you cannot manage your own files once you create a Weebly website. Yes, you read that right: You cannot manage YOUR OWN FILES. So be sure to only link to files in Google Drive or Dropbox or somewhere else and NEVER embed your files in your Weebly site. The only way to delete a file is to contact customer service and ask them to delete specific files (you have to have the names of the files).
If this sounds absurd it's because IT IS. If I had known this before I started my Weebly site I would have never used their service.
They don't answer de emails, when they do, no one can solve the problems. They have a serious problem, when you upload a new blog post, it copy the photos from the new post and replace the old ones, so you loose the pictures from another posts.
Answer: Weebly has a lot of pages, this to me doesn't seem like one of them. You might get this error if you go there. 404 Error - Page Not Found They have a blog that can answer that or lead to that answer.
Answer: You need a paid plan, then you can get live customer service. You still can only get that during business hours. Keep your notes in front of you, they are tricky. Remember what you say in the live chat box because the chat box will not reveal what you were previously saying. They'll try to confuse you using that and try to change your story or something. Then they'll say is that all and end the conversation. Your problem not being solved you'll have to contact them again.
Answer: Confirm this with weebly, don't go there first. Looks like a hack attempt on your account to me.
Answer: I have tried the same and contacting Weekly is futile. They could care less about their clients.
Answer: Weebly does allow facebook marketing on their site. You should take a look at their complete Terms of Service, the most important restriction on advertising is: (q) include more than three ad units per page, or any advertising that greatly reduces the usability of the site. So, you would need to be careful about how many banners you include. That being said, many of Weebly's templates work really well with affiliate sites. The ability to insert HTML and Javascript files gives you a lot of flexibility. I've created a couple of demo sites that show how you can use affiliate data feeds on a Weebly site.
