What people are saying
Trustpilot★☆☆☆☆さくらインターネット株式会社のレンタルサーバー契約をしていたが“さくらインターネット株式会社のレンタルサーバー契約をしていたが、まるでSCAM会社のようなカスタマー対応であった。 全く使用していないので、契約解除しようとしたところ、契約解除条件についての確りとした説明もなく、結局余計に契約期間延長となった。返金もされない。酷い会社に出会ってしまった。”
Trustpilot★☆☆☆☆さくらインターネットは最低です。“2023年12月30日の23時56分に 「会員情報が不正確なため、アカウントを停止する。本人確認書類の提出を1月6日までにしてください。」と連絡が来ました。 また、事前の通知はなかったです。 私はその文面がサービス契約済みかのような文面で、不正利用を疑い、どうなっているか質問をしました。(12月31日の午前1時23分) 正月は返信がなく、期限前日の1月5日に回答になってない返信が来ました。 年末に面倒臭いことを送ってきて、正月は対応せず、期限の前日に回答になってない回答をよこす信頼のできない企業です。”
