Re: Network Solutions holding domains hostage?
said by Jafo232  :OK, but it still says it is available (even though it shows it is not registered).. I am not sure what the gripe is? Is it the fact that snipers can somehow see what people are regging and grab it? That would be one gripe.
Another more obvious problem is that you will now not be able to register the domain through a different registrar. Let's say a person wants to get a domain name and they head to NetSol because they've heard of them before. They search for their domain, find that it is available, then go through that horrific checkout process where NetSol tries to sell them every service they can cram on a web page. Finally the end is reached and the potential purchaser sees NetSol wants $35. Heck with that, they think. They'll find another registrar that charges single digit prices per year. Only now they can't register it because despite what NetSol's tools say, the domain really is no longer available. NetSol is holding it and it only can only be registered through them. |
