    watch out if you have domains with moniker...

    So last week Monikers system tried to renew some of my domains and failed. It did work after going through the process manually though. Well today more domains failed to renew using their auto renew system. So again I tried to renew them manually and only one domain out of four renewed, the other three failed. I know it's nothing to do with my bank because I can see the funds were taken out for all the domains I tried to renew.

    I sent them an email a day ago, no reply yet but hopefully this gets fixed soon.

          Yeah well they just emailed me back...


          "Unfortunately there was a communication error with the .INFO registry while this is not a common problem, It does occasionally happen."


          Failing three times seems common to me but whatever I guess. That's what I get for buying some .info domains.

                  It does sound really fucking shitty. I had a similar problem last night.

                  I haven't been happy with Moniker for a while now, and I'm transferring my domains out of there. I've got probably 12-15 left at Moniker and 6 of them are in the process of being transferred out right now.

                  Last night I tried to unlock a few for transfer and kept getting errors. Seems they had problems communicating with the registry for both .com and .org. I highly suspect the issue was on Moniker's end of things. Things seem to be resolved today though.

                              Moniker quit being reliable in 2010.

                                  If you are still using Moniker you really have no one to blame but yourself.

                                      What company is so much better than Moniker?

                                      Namecheap? I would use them but I think they still resell through Enom, although I haven't checked in a while.

                                      There was also a thread here about namecheap policing websites. They claim the model looked too young but the guy who started the thread here on gfy claimed the content was legit from a major company/sponsor. Who knows for sure because any company isn't going to give out model IDs. It also makes me wonder what else they might come after you for...

                                      GoDaddy? Yeah no thanks I'd take moniker any day over them.

                                      Enom? No thanks, they fucked me back when registryfly also fucked me so I'd never give them a cent.

                                                      Move all my domains out last year. They used to be really good, not sure WTF happen to them lately.

                                                                                          I admit i have been looking around given the posts here. But as a hosting company I also know that almost in all cases you see negative posts about a host it concerns a shared webhosting client who doesn't know shit of what he is doing.

                                                                                          But have not found anything I thought wow this is it yet. I have exceptional good pricing and I haven't found anything close yet.

                                                                                                  Dynadot is a very good registrar. The wikileaks.org domain is still registered there. Their bulk pricing is competitive. I have quite a few there.

                                                                                                  Other alternatives since people are asking:

                                                                                                  Name.com is good, I use their free Verisign ID Protect that works with my paypal key fob. I keep some of my semi-important domains there. They are slightly higher priced than the cheap registrars but bring me piece of mind.

                                                                                                  Fabulous is another great one to keep your high value domains at. The "retail pricing" isn't very competitive but the pricing tier I'm personally on makes them really cheap for me. Free executive lock on domains.

                                                                                                      Other alternatives since people are asking:

                                                                                                      Name.com is good, I use their free Verisign ID Protect that works with my paypal key fob. I keep some of my semi-important domains there. They are slightly higher priced than the cheap registrars but bring me piece of mind.

                                                                                                      Fabulous is another great one to keep your high value domains at. The "retail pricing" isn't very competitive but the pricing tier I'm personally on makes them really cheap for me. Free executive lock on domains.

                                                                                                      Internet.bs is very good. Great pricing, simple clean interface, no issues at all.

I used to have 4000 domain names and I'd often keep them close to the end of redemption. Never had this happen before with any one else.

                                                                                                                  I also had them put the domains back into my account several times after I pointed it out. The last time they said they would and did not. I'm moving from them as soon as a I can.

                                                                                                                  They also renew about 2 weeks before renewal.

                                                                                                                                      I use GoDaddy and my WWD reseller ComEtc a lot for pricing sake and honestly still like them the best. People go on about elephant this, SOPA that, etc., but their support is the best I have dealt with at any registrar.

                                                                                                                                      Moniker I've tended to be less than impressed with. They started outsourcing their support some time ago and once I got someone completely inept and gave up after a while.

                                                                                                                                              Namecheap? I would use them but I think they still resell through Enom, although I haven't checked in a while.

                                                                                                                                              There was also a thread here about namecheap policing websites. They claim the model looked too young but the guy who started the thread here on gfy claimed the content was legit from a major company/sponsor. Who knows for sure because any company isn't going to give out model IDs. It also makes me wonder what else they might come after you for...

                                                                                                                                              GoDaddy? Yeah no thanks I'd take moniker any day over them.

I used to have 4000 domain names and I'd often keep them close to the end of redemption. Never had this happen before with any one else.

                                                                                                                                                                          I also had them put the domains back into my account several times after I pointed it out. The last time they said they would and did not. I'm moving from them as soon as a I can.

                                                                                                                                                                          They also renew about 2 weeks before renewal.
                                                                                                                                                                          Even though domains go through a redemption period and then a deletion period, technically after a domain passes it's expiration date, it no longer belongs to you. I know what you mean though, that it is nice to at least have a backup plan, if something goes wrong with renewing so that you can recover your domain from the redemption period. Do they charge extra to renew your domain after it goes into redemption?

I registered one domain with them a long time ago. Not too long ago it expired. I didn't realize it had. When I realized it had expired I was unable to renew/reactivate it. I contact them and they basically told me since it had expired they would hold it and I had to pay them $125 to reactivate it.

                                                                                                                                                                                  I had nothing on the domain so I didn't do it, but it kind of sucks that they immediately hit you with that kind fee if a domain expires.

Took a half dozen phone calls to get something so miniscule fixed. And I don't think the situation even got fixed so I gave up.

I registered one domain with them a long time ago. Not too long ago it expired. I didn't realize it had. When I realized it had expired I was unable to renew/reactivate it. I contact them and they basically told me since it had expired they would hold it and I had to pay them $125 to reactivate it.

                                                                                                                                                                                                      I had nothing on the domain so I didn't do it, but it kind of sucks that they immediately hit you with that kind fee if a domain expires.

                                                                                                                                                                                                      you don't know you're wearing a leash if you sit by the peg all day..
