After all the years that Gisol’s Special Offer Countdown Timer has been conning people into rushing their decisions to sign up to their scam, it has now mysteriously vanished!
You know the one… It looked like you had to sign up really quickly, or you wouldn’t get that Special Deal… The timer that reset itself EVERY DAY… Another one of the false and misleading adverts that Gisol is famous for…
This coincides… [ ... ]
He He,
I just got this mail from Gisol! If you’re looking, I haven’t been a customer for months, my account is closed, and I got my money back from you!

Hi, I sent this to Mike last night but figured I should share. I’ve been in contact with Frank and he’s been a big help in giving me direction on what to do now.
So here’s the story:
I signed up with GISOL on 02-07-03 with Best (Annually + 3 Months Free) ($95.40). This was for a hobby website. I had no issue with GISOL until sometime last year… [ ... ]
Last night I Googled “Gisol” for what seemed like the 1,000,000th time:
Nothing strange about the results, although I was happy that gisol.com is 2nd, and www.gisolsucks.com is 1st. Good news that they’re not topping the search results for their own name, and an added bonus that it’s a website against them that… [ ... ]
This only applies to victims in the US…
For any of you thinking that you cannot take Gisol to Small Claims Court because you cannot get to Los Angeles, please see:
http://www.courtinfo.ca.gov/selfhelp/smallclaims/findright.htm
Gisol’s contract states:
ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING CONCERNING THIS AGREEMENT MUST BE BROUGHT IN A STATE OR FEDERAL COURT LOCATED IN LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION… [ ... ]
Of the many, many victims that have contacted me over the last few months, one of them feels so strongly about her personal struggle with Gisol and her Credit Card, that she has decided she wanted to start her own blog detailing her own experience.
In her first post, she has tried to express the way that many of us might be feeling, and her open letter to you all shows why… [ ... ]
I have a similar story to everyone who has posted on your site. I used GISOL for quite a while before I had any issues with them; must have be 2 or 3 years. Then they let my domain go into redemption and threatened to charge me ~$750 dollars in ‘penalties’ for letting it go that far…the domain was registered in their name, as usual. Not sure how… [ ... ]
Gisol’s famous non-existant 30 Day Money Back Guarantee is no longer advertised on their website. At some point this year, their highly trained graphic artist (or a 3 year old) has changed their front page. In fact, it has changed a couple of times over the last couple of years. Using the Internet Archive “Wayback Machine” I managed to get some screen shots:
December 25th… [ ... ]
As you may have noticed, I’ve added a new donate widget to this post. If you have a few dollars to spare, please help to keep the site running by donating. It’s totally secure, using PayPal.
I’m not asking to make a profit, just to help pay for the hosting, sending letters, making phonecalls often internationally etc. If we get enough and there are other people who need help with the… [ ... ]
I’m located in Barbados, and wish I had found this (and many other sites) before allowing gisol to pressure me into agreeing to a cc charge of over $1,000
I found a great site, domaintools.com, which among other things, allowed me to see that gisol DELETED my domain several days before I called them regarding domain expiry
If they deleted my domain, how can they then tell me that they could put… [ ... ]
