So I just got back from a week long trip to China. You know visited The Great Wall, Forbidden City, and Tieneman Square. (I took over 500 pictures!) But that's not what I'm going to blog about right now, at this very moment, while I'm trying to fight off a cold, I'm going to blog about my experience with GoDaddy.com .
I have several names hosted with GoDaddy.com and some of them I don't use anymore, as a matter of fact, I've forgotten that I even had some of them. That was until I was notified through paypal that I was charged $135 for hosting service! That was about a week ago, so today I finally got around to calling GoDaddy.com and after a brief 2 min hold, got a representative. There weren't 8000 prompts to go through, just one that asked if I knew my customer number or not. And while it's 7:17PM here in Seoul, it's 3:17AM at GoDaddy.com's headquarters in AZ.
Moving right along, within 2 minutes the customer service rep (I wish I would have paid attention to his name) understood my problem, explained to me the situation, and refunded the entire amount. While I was literally talking with him I received an email from paypal stating I had been credited the full amount.
It's not often we find customer service of this kind from a company, and from a .com ?! Now I know why I always use godaddy.com Even when I sign up through Google domain services, I always select to have GoDaddy register the name!
So now that I feel like I'm a GoDaddy.com evangelist, I'm going to take a nap and keep fighting this cold.. maybe I'll get to the China blog tomorrow... :\
So much has happened in the past 96 hours since I've been back in the states. I've had breakfast at Parsons three days in a row, been to starbucks twice, and the mall once. It doesn't seem much like Christmas this morning...as a matter of fact yesterday felt more like Christmas; yesterday when I was on the phone with my cousins and friends from Korea. It's interesting how much things change in a short span like four months. I was having coffee with rockstar the other day and telling him that for some reason I don't feel like Arizona is my home. Don't get me wrong, my family is here and perhaps someday I'll be back here to settle down but, in the mean while I feel like I'm a traveler, as if there's so much for me to learn and explore.
My experience in Korea seems to change more everyday than I could have imagined in the whole of the year I'm supposed to be there. I've made a new little sister, Gong-Shan from China, I've made a slew of good friends and even a really great friend. I've met amazing family like Do Yoon and Peel Ju and Hyun Ju; my uncles, aunts, and other cousins have blessed me and introduced me to an aspect of my life and heritage that I could not have imagined possible in a hundred years... and for this I am greatful to God.
In the past week, I've also had an amazing time getting to see the working of a soveriegn God in ways that I had forgotten that He works. I hope to blog more on this topic later today. But right now, Christmas brunch is about to be ready and I should go get ready...
Merry Christmas and Happy Advent.
