firstly, they do send out atleast two, I think three warning emails when your domain is about to expire including on the day.

Secondly, they are doing you a favour by holding the domain. Otherwise someone else could grab it from you.

Thirdly, they are worth the extra money.

There's not really much can be added to this other than - wow, what a fucking idiot and still he continues to dig the hole deeper. :1orglaugh

agreed... i also just started using godaddy recently, so we'll see how that works out for me

Yeah I don't think directNIC has that option. But whatver, I've never accidentaly let a domain expire with them.

man, seriously, it's almost annoying the amount of mails they send you to see if you'll re-register. and they even let you renew 2 months after the domain expires before letting it go, what do you want? a limo to your house with a hot girl who gives you ablowjob and after that she tells that your domains are about to expire? :winkwink:

PussyAtlas,
Search the board for a thread about GoDaddy by juicylinks... he got screwed royally by them and i don't think he was the only one. Ihave begun transferring my domains from godaddy to directnic.. :2 cents:

Lately I think DirectNic is the way to go...

:thumbsup

plus DN has great tools in there members area..

i have 3 other domain areas.

DN is the best even it it costs 7-8 bucks more.

there site is easy as pie to use!
that is what i like best!

Goddamn, what a stupid whiney bitch. I do believe that the reason they won't let you transfer the domain after it has expired is due to ICANN regulations. You have to register, and then transfer, regardless of what registrar you use.

I only ever registered a few domains with DirectNic (I use RegisterFly) and i got 3 reminder emails for each one.

More than likely, your email is fucking up. DirectNic is not to blame; you're just an idiot.

Directnic have good service, but expensive prices.

I dont know how people are able to steal domains when I cant even trasfer mine, news for you all of the registers suck u just have to choice which problems u want to deal with.

I used them before and never used them again. I never liked their interface

Godaddy suck ass... Wait till they hit you with a random single spam complaint (I have never spammed). They'll lock your account, and you'll pay either $29 (ransom fee) or $100 to solve your probs... then that $8 don't seem so good.

DirectNic have been better for me so far.

one of the dearest but one of the best. im trying out godaddy at the moment so ill have about half and half there and directnic. directnics ease of use is fantastic.
