+ | ====== eNom and BulkRegister.com ====== | ||
+ | I had a bad experience with eNom and BulkRegister.com and this is my story. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== RegisterFly ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Way back when, I was a customer of the domain registration service //RegisterFly//. They had great prices and a decent web interface. Rumour has it that a spat between the owners caused a decline there and before long I started to have serious problems. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== eNom ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Soon, the reseller, //eNom//, stepped in and took over the accounts. They grandfathered //RegisterFly// users into their system allowing us to buy domains at about $10. The system worked well and things were good. | ||
+ | |||
+ | About a year ago //eNom// raised prices on old //RegisterFly// users. It didn't go up a lot, just a couple dollars, but it was a significant percentage. I thought their system was worth the difference, so I stuck around at the new price. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== BulkRegister.com ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Now, //eNom// has transferred my account to //BulkRegister.com// and the price went up again, this time to $12.95. Again, this is a minor increase (although about 30% higher than original). Still, I thought I //might// stick around again. Apparently, I like punishment. Today, however, I got an unexpected charge of $99 just for the privileged of being a customer. That was enough, I called them. | ||
+ | |||
+ | They told me that the $99 membership fee was used to keep my price down to the $12.95 amount. Their regular rate is closer to $20. | ||
+ | |||
+ | No thanks. I'm taking my ball and going home. |
