1and1 has extremely aggressive telemarketers.

They once called my computer illiterate father who can barely speak english and instructed him to go to trial.1and1.com to sign up for MyWebsite.

Another time I refused the MyWebsite trial and the aggressive-pissed-off guy on the phone signed me up anyway. Twice. I finally got $350 refunded after months of complaining.

Always hang up the phone. Yell "no no no" and hang up immediately. Always. They use phrases like "I'm going to sign you up for that so you're all set." and "ok you're all set with the mywebsite service". They don't ask you if you want a trial. They opt you in. It's up to you to interrupt them.

I love their services however.
