Comment on GoDaddy Ripoff by BW

Just this morning I had exactly the same situation with LCN who are holding a domain for another 25 days and wanting to charge me £50.00 to renew.

It is a truly cynical way of making money but a lesson learnt with regards to keeping on top of domain expirations.

Yeah, as hosts they’re not so hot either. We had another client with a so-called business hosting account, who wanted to accept payments through his authorize.net account. Shouldn’t have been a big deal, but GoDaddy wouldn’t allow the secure connection. We had to host the payment form on another account. Odd.

Well, I guess we get what we pay for when we register domains from a cheap registrar . . ?

Same here.

I was patiently waiting for a domain name I wanted to expire, then I talked myself into waiting for the 42-day ‘redemption period’ to expire.
GoDaddy are still holding it in ‘redemption period’ status for 10 weeks and counting.

Of course they know I have interest in the domain, since I regularly check the WHOIS database. It’s obvious they just want me to place a BackOrder bid with them or use their Domain Buy Service: Just $69.99 per domain name + commission ($10)!

That’s yours $79.99

It’s a rip-off and I will let them rot with this domain as I am the ONLY one interested. I will just change my TLD and simply give my money to a different registar.
