Rated 4 out of 5 stars

The website hosting JIMDO is quite good in responding to inquiries, its Creator website builder is quite easy to use. However, I must admit it can still be improved.

Why was my domain (URL) changed without my permission?

I have been using Jimdo's paid Creator Plan in Japan for 14 years, but my domain was changed to another domain without my permission for several days.To my surprise, four days after I submitted a support inquiry, the Japanese Creator Plan support “U “sent me a suspicious email on November 11, 2025, stating: “I understand that you already own the ‘×××org’ domain but do not plan to use it, and wish to add a different domain instead. Is that correct?” Four days later, I discovered that my .org domain had been changed to jimdowebcom without my knowledge...Upon checking my records, I found that between October 7, 2025, at 3:59:56 JST and November 15, 2025, at 22:07, my domain "×××org" had been changed to another domain, jimdowebcom/, without my authorization.When I asked Support U about it why you did do such a thing without my permission, Support U replied:“After checking our internal system records, we found no evidence that Jimdo changed your custom domain.

There was also no record of such a change operation in the system history. Therefore, this was not an incident caused by our company's operation or error. Our investigation also found no record of any internal operation.”Support “U" responded, then I inquired with another support agent “S", asking her to share the log data from that system if she had examined it. Support agent S adopted a high-handed attitude, stating, “Jimdo does not record logs of logins to the admin panel or edited logs, so we cannot provide the logs you requested.” This was contradictory, as support U had stated they had examined the system, yet S claimed they couldn't provide the logs because they weren't recorded. Ultimately, in the response from Jimdo Germany stated that since I switched my domains and similar issues weren't occurring globally, the possibility of an automatic system switch was low.

Despite the potential for it to be their own system error, Jimdo held the system data from the period when the error occurred but provided no evidence of that data. Instead, they adopted an overbearing attitude, acting as if I were solely at fault.I suddenly discovered my domain had been changed without my knowledge for several days or more days, which made me distrustful of the Jimdo system. I simply wanted to know the facts. However, the current Jimdo has responded to me, a paying customer of their Creator Plan for 14 years, in an incredibly high-handed manner, acting as if I had changed it myself. In Japan, there are AI Builder plans besides the Creator Plan. My concern was that if Support U couldn't perform the operation, perhaps Jimdo's AI had changed it without my permission. or Jimdo's system error occurred. I wanted to know the facts to dispel that worry.Jimdo, despite causing a system error that arbitrarily changed my domain, acted as if I had changed it myself. After charging me the annual fee for 14 years of paid membership, two support staff adopted an overbearing attitude. It seems the company has reached a terminal state, completely incapable of honest corporate conduct.

Dear Richard, Thank you for your reply. Regarding the above matter, in order to conduct a proper investigation, I exchanged multiple communications with your company's Japanese Jimdo support team with M.U and J.S. from November 15 to November 28, 2025. They provided me with their final response at the following date and time. Given that I provided such clear information, wouldn't it be easy for your two Japanese support team members to identify me directly by confirming with them?
November 17, 2025, 1:48pm JST from Support M.U.
" Regarding your claim that the domain was changed without authorization, we did not make any changes whatsoever. Our investigation found no internal records of such an operation."
November 28, 2025, 6:56pm JST
From Support Team J.S. "According to the response from the German developer, the switch occurs when the customer changes it via the admin panel. Additionally, since there are no similar occurrences globally, the possibility of an automatic system switch is also low.
Furthermore, my concern is that there is a discrepancy between Richard's response and the responses from the Japanese support team, which feels contradictory. You mentioned me contacting your Japanese support team again, but how exactly should I proceed with contacting your support team when they only respond me by saying" I switched my domain myself", despite your client (your user me) asking about my domain being switched without my authorization?? I sincerely hope you will conduct a thorough investigation and provide a clear and transparent response.

Hi there,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. I’m really sorry to hear how stressful this situation has been for you, especially after such a long time as a Jimdo customer. I completely understand why an unexpected domain change would be worrying.

To investigate this properly, we would need to match your review with your original support request. At the moment, the information in the review—while detailed—doesn’t give us enough to identify your account or the specific ticket. That’s why we asked for additional data earlier; not to place responsibility on you, but simply so we can access the correct history and help you get clarity.

Just to address one of your concerns directly:
Jimdo does not change customer domains without authorization. When domain settings change, it is most commonly due to a plan expiring, the domain being managed externally, or changes to DNS/forwarding settings.
Additionally, our Companion AI does not have access to domains or account settings and cannot perform any such operations.

We genuinely want to review what happened in your case and give you a clear, transparent answer. If you prefer not to discuss further on Trustpilot, you are very welcome to contact our support team again. With just a bit of identifying information, we can look into the account activity, contact history, and domain status during the timeframe you mentioned.

Thank you again for your long-term trust in Jimdo, and we would appreciate the chance to resolve this together.

Kind regards,
Richard from Jimdo

Well it gets worse - DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY

Again, I so wish I could give no stars or even minus stars. So no contact from Jimdo's collection agency PAIR Finance (kundenservice at pairfinance.de) to my email. A sop of a response from Jimdo in response to my first Trust Pilot review on them and another nasty email from Jimdo. They are certainly covering themselves in glory. Interesting model being used by them, limit the damage on the trust pilot reviews by answering them but do not reply to customers direct emails or support tickets. Germans are known for the efficiency, but it is clearly lacking at Jimdo.

Hello Jackie,

thank you for your feedback. I am very sorry to hear how upsetting this situation has been for you. I understand your frustration, especially when communication does not meet your expectations.

I want to clarify that your case has already been handed over to the collection agency. At this stage we are no longer able to intervene directly, which I know is not the answer you were hoping for. Please continue communicating with the agency so that your case can be resolved as smoothly as possible.

Kind regards

It took you pretty long (over 4 days) to reply eventhough I pay for a subscription that should give me fast customer support. The support came and was fine, but then you start harassing me with emails about how you did. Well, thats pretty annoying, so no, i did not enjoy the service.

Hi Sacha,

We’re really sorry for the delay in getting back to you — that’s not the experience we want for our subscribers, and we understand how frustrating it must have been to wait several days for help.

We also take your feedback about our follow-up emails seriously. These messages are meant to help us improve, but we see how they could come across as annoying when the initial experience wasn’t great. We’ll review how we handle these surveys to make them less intrusive.

Thanks for letting us know — we genuinely appreciate the honesty, and we hope we can make things right next time.

Kind regards,

Hello Zaid,

I’m really sorry to hear about your experience and the frustration caused by not receiving a reply yet. Our support team always aims to respond as quickly as possible, but during times of high demand it can take longer than usual. Please rest assured that every request from our customers is being reviewed and answered in turn.

Regarding Bing indexing, our team is aware of issues with Bing’s crawling behavior, and we’re already looking into how to best ensure our customers’ sites are indexed properly again.

We truly appreciate your patience and feedback, and we’ll do our best to get back to you as soon as possible.

We encountered a subscription issue that was flagged by the system, but we couldn’t see it ourselves. We exchanged emails with support for 10 days before Jimdo manually resolved the problem. It caused us quite a bit of concern. Fortunately, the issue is now resolved.

You're not serious

You're not serious, it's unbearable!!!

I've been a customer for 13 years and I have 3 websites.

I've seen subscriptions increase while customer service deteriorates. All you can say is that you have a lot of customer requests...that's not an answer!!! You're overwhelmed...hire some people, you bunch of incompetents!!!

Hello Franck,

I’m really sorry to read this, especially after 13 years with us and three websites. You’re absolutely right that long-time customers deserve quick and reliable help. Our support team works hard to assist everyone personally, but response times can sometimes increase when we receive many requests or have limited availability. We understand how frustrating that is and are doing everything we can to improve.


If you still have an open issue, please reply to your last ticket or reach out again so we can look into it directly and find a solution for you.

I canceled my plan as I no longer need your services... apparently it was not enough notice, so you billed me and despite several requests to refund the money you have refused. Your policy should have been noted in the renewal email reminder not requiring me to follow a hyper link, then log in, and read a lengthy terms and conditions, you have intentionally set this system up to scam people. I will not be recommending your services to anyone.

We have grown very disappointed with…

We have grown very disappointed with Jimdo for a number of reasons - the first is lack of customer support.

1. One of our many Jimdo sites is experiencing 409 errors. It took a week for tech support to reply.
2. The tech support is only offered on limited hours when they do reply - we are in Canada. We cannot wait 8-12 hours for someone in your time zone to reply.
3. The Jimdo platform has never improved. The templates have not improved or even changed in the eight years we have been customers.
4. Your fees have increased significantly, with no innovation, no customer support and limited tools.

It is time for Jimdo to improve or leave the market to WIX.

Horrible communication and customer service

Jimdo refuses to talk directly with customers to resolve. Unacceptable when you have paying business customers. Do not recommend any business use this company. Very impersonal and care more about their own policy minutiae than customer retention and support.

NEVER USE JIMDO. POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE. I am in the USA and have been a customer with Jimdo for 12 years. My website is low activity but important for my customers. Jimdo sent me INV06001455 and their email auto-filed into my promotions folder, not my primary folder. So I missed renewal payment. They never called me or tried to communicate beyond form emails. No people will talk to you directly. My bill was due 27 April. They sent a payment reminder 22 days later and another 43 days later. They took weeks to respond to my requests for inquiry and never wanted to talk to me in person to resolve my questions. Just threatening collection letters. Everything is a form letter response and they tell you they have too many tickets / high volume, to respond to so be patient. They are not interested in retaining customers, nor dealing with humans and issue resolution, only doing to bare minimum. 78 days after the due date they terminated everything, sent me to a collections agency in Germany (I am in USA) and will not talk to me directly. Then a billing specialist Benjamin sent me a letter after weeks claiming he replied but did not. Every interaction with JIMDO says they do not care about you as a long term customer. STAY AWAY FROM JIMDO! HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE AND RESPONSE.

Everything works perfectly, the website is easy to set up, and whenever I had a question, I received a response within a short time. In addition, the help I received was really helpful and provided me with exactly what I needed.

I also find the company to be very lively and creative. In the newsletter, I always see what exciting inspiration they share with us. Thank you very much for your great work!

Their refund policy is non-existent

Their refund policy is non-existent. Their customer service is also non-existent. I requested a cancellation and refund. Jimdo response was, "We have reviewed your request and would like to inform you that we are unable to comply with your revocation request, as there is no statutory right of withdrawal for consumers provided for in your country". In short, we cannot provide a refund. I think it worth to note that you are better off purchasing from a reputable web hosting. Jimdo may be cheap, but the aggregation and inconvenience is not worth your time and effort. A word of caution ~ STAY AWAY FROM JIMDO.

Based on your response below, it means you have no right or license to do business in the United States. Your business ads are deceptive,a sham and fraud! Consumers beware!

Hello Mario!

Thank you for your feedback. I apologise if there has been a misunderstanding regarding the terms of the contract.

It may be that the cancellation period had already expired, does not apply in your location (e.g. the USA), or that the contract was concluded by a business (not a consumer). Of course, I cannot determine whether any of this applies in your case, but our support team will be happy to check this for you upon request.
