DO NOT do business with this company and trust your hard work on an email list to them. They will take your money, ban you, keep your money and any work product you have until that time. Beware!!!
On May 11th, 2020, I made the decision to use an onlne company called Aweber for an autoresponder for my business. I presented a credit card and was charged $32.67.
After my account was established I tried to create a lead funnel offering some free software in return for opt'ing in to my email list. A simple list builder autoresponder and thank you page.
I tested. It seemed to work OK. Being new at this it took me a few tries to get tthe flow right from lead asset to delivery of the free software.
In the midst of trying to refine my list building I was suddenly shut out of my account.
I contcted Aweber who replied with an email simply stating:

Hello Michael,

I made another 2 attempts to try and AT LEAST find out what I had done wrong. I've never used an autoresponder so maybe I made some sort of mistake, but I can't see how. I followed Awebers video training and yet something was so wrong that Aweber banned me, closed my account AND kept my money without any explanation of any sort.
I know that Aweber is used by literally thousands of internet marketers an they enjoy a good reputation - BUT - as with most companies that get too obig they think they can do ANYTHING without consequences.
I am only one voice. Let it be known; I think this company is arrogant, rude, controlling to the extent you'd expect from a dictatorship and they expect NO consequence to thier actions.
Consider GetResponse or MailChimp or ANYONE but Aweber to handle your autoresponder or email needs because you may simply LOSE ALL OF YOUR WORK when they decide to ban you without warning or explanation.
Also, I notice they use one corporate name and 3 tradenames. I am currently researching the corporate records in PA., to determine the directors and/or executive officers of this company. I find that THOMAS M KULZER is both the listed owner and President of this company. Since they basically stole my money I am trying to get our corporate attorney to have them charged with wire fraud and theft here in Texas. I now have reports on this Thomas Kulzer, including his criminal history, as well as a list of aliases he has used.
Beware. They will rip you off. Keep your money, keep your work product, and like a despot, will tell you they don't have to give you a reason. Just 'shut up and don't come back.'
