    Absolute nightmare! Was told I was buying tech support from GoDaddy and that GoDaddy was my new tech support company & was billed by GoDaddy. Later found out it was Bask when I called GoDaddy for support and was told to call this company. I had a 20 minute phone call for $200 which was excessive plus 1 year of tech support for an additional $109. The rep was rude, deleted my personal outlook email which was not the problem and wanted to argue with me when I had specifically told him that account was fine. I had to take care of the issue myself. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!

    Bask is in the Philippines. Although the staff is nice (at times) they seem very InCompetent. They take hours to figure things out and as a business owner, my computer can’t be down all day! To add insult to injury - their wait times are FOREVER!! (Literally, it takes hours for them to answer their phones!!) They used to cover all our computers under one packaged price and now only cover 2!!! They “nickel and dime” their customers. Very disappointing and dissatisfied. Does anyone know of a better service?

      When and if you actually talk to a technician, the service is acceptable. However, the only way to get to a tech is to call and the last time I called I was on hold listening to insipid music for 20 minutes before I hung up. They have a chat app but it has the same problem. You ask the question and then wait and wait for an answer. You get all this heartburn for $300 per year. And they are endorsed by GoDaddy.com. Please note, this applies only to Bask. GoDaddy is great as far as they go.

      This company has been charging non-users on a recurring monthly basis for several years unbeknownst to them. Once identified, we tried contacting them to cancel and was placed on hold for several hours. Still not cancelled. Absolutely terrible company and service.

      I have been an ITOK/Bask customer for over 10 years. Usually tech work, whether for tuneup or problems, is fine. Communication with customers about changes and new processes is poor. It was significantly better with ITOK. I have had ongoing problems with backup which continues to this day. I have never gotten a straight answer about what the problem is. I'm never sure it's working and have no way to check. I have been told several times that software is not good!!!! Then fix it. The 24/7 chat is a joke since it usually doesn't work in a timely manner. Other than tech people, there is no one to contact.

      HORRIFYING and EXTREMELY COSTLY. After securing full payment for a year of $385, a tech at Bask requested access to my computer without ascertaining what my issues were. He mindlessly CORRUPTED my EXTENSIONS, basically rendering my computer "wiped". Unfortunately, without a viable option to recover them, I lost a large portion of my Retirement Funds. I didn't even have to ask for a refund as that was the least of my concerns, but it was automatically placed back into my account. After numerous complaints and attempts at some sort of resolution, i.e. phone call and emails to V.P. Justin, no consolation was ever offered. I have considered suing for Gross Negligence. This company should be heavily monitored for infractions against the public.

      I spoke with a nice soft spoken woman name Pele ** that helped me with my computer issues, security and assuring to protect all my personal information with my home business laptops, and a couple of my tablets. I was able to protect a total of 5 devices for only $250/year! You can't get that kind of bargain anywhere else and I used to be a member with the Geek Squad. Unlimited technical support, unlimited cleaning, unlimited security for a WHOLE YEAR! Thanks Pele (Customer Support) & Christy (my Tech Support lady).

      Update didn't work so, since the update process removed the old version, no more back-ups. Couldn't get help from so-called "customer service." Then they keep charging you even though you are not using the service. Hello "customer service"? Anybody there? Can't get a refund of bogus charges.

      On 7/19/2016 my computer start to act, and a phone # appeared on my computer to help me, I called and a lady named Sara tried to help me by charging me one time $220.00 and to fix my computer, which they did, after that I noticed that they are charging me every month $19.99 on my credit card without my permission. I emailed them few times but the charges were coming, finally they cancelled my account. So far they charged me $19.99 for 18 month, not to mention that did not get any services, and money out of my pocket.

      When I first started using the company 3 years ago, I would give it 5 stars. However, the past three months, the service has gone way downhill. This week, they have dropped the ball twice in calling me for appointments I have made for a cleaning. On Monday at 9 PM, there was no call. On Wednesday, someone called after 1 PM, and I told them they cannot just pick any odd hour to call me for a missed appointment and offer to do it then when I am at work. I asked for a manager. The manager agreed to waive one month of monthly fee and reschedule the cleaning for Thursday at 9 PM. There was no call the 2nd time around at that time.

      The chat has been unavailable, and I have tried using it several times this week. However, the manager said he was not aware of that. When you call, the hold times are very long. I am very disgusted and will be cancelling this soon after getting another company. If you are patient with getting the runaround, this company is for you, but if not, this is not for you. If I have trouble getting in touch with anyone when time to cancel, I will dispute with my credit card, as they have not provided the service they have promised.

      Bask Technology author review by Morgan Cutolo

      Bask has offered tech support for over 10 years and focuses on remote support. They also offer on-site support, which is slightly more expensive.

      • Great support specialists: The support specialists at Bask are easy to reach because they are based in the U.S. They speak English as a first language and offer solid and knowledgeable support.

      • Security: The subscription service includes reputable security software that keeps information safe and encrypted.

      • Online backup: This solution offers online backup, which is great for companies that need a source of backup support.

      • Pricing: Bask offers four different pricing plans. The prices range in each plan, offering more services as the price increases.

      • Certifications: Technicians here aren’t required to be certified to work on specific products.
