I disagree with all the above statement. They are a fraudulent company. they keep sending you bills after you have cancelled your package. They offered me completely no services and kept charging me for almost 2years after cancellation. I never signed for any package beyond 2011 Beware New users!!!!!!!1n1 is a fraudulent company
Researching hosting domains is time consuming, however, this is a little easier to understand.
1and1 Internet is the worse provider in the U.S. There services is overpriced compared to the other providers listed on google.com, the owner of the company has no control over his employees.
Further more they do not understand the concept of running a business and they are incompetent when it comes to running their billing systems.
1and1 is sneaking in that 11.99 per month charge on alot of people, but you don’t have to stand for it. call them up, complain to the billing people and they will let you “upgrade” your package back to the 9.99 price. you lose the “extra” trafic and webspace you didn’t ask for, but in today’s economy, $2 a month can go a long way over the life of your site.
one word of caution, though. make sure you pay attention to the package you choose. if you have linux, make sure you DO NOT “upgrade” to microsoft or all the data on your websites will be lost.
i was not so fortunate. i specifically told the person i wanted to keep my linux package, and an hour later found out i was being switched to MS. i frantically called them, and told them to stop the transfer, and all i got was “sorry, too late. you lose” in so many words. i asked for a back up of our databases and files, and while i did get a backup of our databases, all our files were lost. (we even recorded the conversation and told them we were recording but it didn’t help). my access to our linux server files was cut off so i could not back up the files myself. they say the transfer will take up to 24 hours, but it seemed they did a rush job for once and had it switched over after a mere hour. i did manage to backup three of my websites, but lost four others. they keep saying it is my fault, but i specifically said i wanted to stay on linux. they say you can only move between servers once every thirty days, but they allowed us to move back over after only one day. they did restore our databases for us and those were working just fine until two days ago when they suddenly deleted all of our databases (which i had backed up when i got access again). again they insist that only i can delete them but i KNOW i didn’t.
all of this could have been avoided if they had ASKED if i wanted the $2 upgrade instead of forcing it on me. meanwhile, all their price lists still say 9.99 for their business package.
New Update from 1&1:
At 1&1, we make every effort to offer our customers the most
advanced technology and services available in the industry.
For this reason, we have decided to include unlimited traffic
with all of our webhosting packages and online shops.
Now, you don’t have to worry if you exceed the monthly transfer
volume limits in your package!
Unlimited traffic will allow you to offer downloads to your
visitors, add flash animation or other types of high resolution
graphics to your site.
In the past if you had more traffic than your package included,
you had to pay an additional $0.49/GB. Unlimited traffic means
you can rest easy, instead of paying additional fees for a
successful website.
Your advantages:
* More visitors to your site will not mean more money out of
your pocket.
* Transfer large files via FTP and don’t worry about added fees.
* Offer file downloads without concern for a huge bill at the end
of the month.
Sincerely,
Your 1&1 Internet Team

While I am pleased with the promise of “unlimited traffic” I see that my general fees have been increased:
We are pleased to unveil the new 1&1 Business Package with more
web space and unlimited traffic coming in October 2009. As a
result, starting October 2009 your Business package will cost
$11.99 per month*.
Overall, I am satisfied with 1&1 (U.S.) and I thought you would be interested in this update.
I think 1and1 is still the best in North America. I had 3 server with 1and1 and still running 2 server now. The server are stable and customer service is great and helpful. Tried with other hosting companys, some of them always have problem with the server, got hacked, have virus, and then promot you anti-virus software or fire wall. After switched to 1and1, never had any problem. Customer service is great, well skilled and fast result.
During the 5 years that I’ve been with 1&1 their uptime has been great. I caught my site[s] offline for a brief period of time once but usually my sites are online.
I don’t have any major complaints about 1&1 yet.
