VERY unprofessional guy called from 201-716-4468, identified himself as representative of Comodo. Started off rude and casual like "who's in charge of ssl security over there?" Told him we just signed a year contract so wouldn't be able to make any changes and that I had to go due to time. He said "well who'd you sign with?" Told him a couple different companies, and that I was running out of time for this phone call. He said "okay, so lemme ask you ask you this; how many credit card transactions you run over there?" I said again that I was running out of time, he hung up halfway through my saying it. Does Comodo do no auditing of their callers? Even for a telemarketer this guy would have seemed rude.
Comodo may be an SSL provider; however, Comodo lacks strong authentication and business best practices, integrity, and ethics, to be considered a real legitimate CA. Be aware and careful of the unethical misleading lies told by Comodo sales representatives to steal business from legitimate CA’s. Comodo is a dirty dog.
They've called me a few times. They try to upsell you on a DIFFERENT SSL certificate. It's a scam where they try to get you to buy a "renewal" from them but it's actually a completely different company. Don't fall for this; a couple of our clients have and it's a nightmare to try to explain to the customer that they got taken for a ride.
Idiot with a New Jersey accent called me on my Toll-Free 800# number trying to sell a Comodo SSL certificate. I told him I was busy and not interested in anything telemarketer related. He asked if he could call back and started recited my toll-free number to me. I then advised him it was bad form to call a business' toll free number in order to sell something. Then I let the expletives fly. Poor [***] had no reply. I give him credit, though, the only thing remotely negative he said intimated that we were a 'mom & pop' outfit. Extremely unprofessional, amateurish, and boorish. Hey, Comodo, stop calling me on my 800#, personal number, or any number you manage to scrape up. I will never purchase anything from your brand....ever!
