...I read somewhere that the whole site was down for a while last year, which worries me a little...
I guess when this happened, they stayed true to the "BS" part of their name. :lol:
Yeah, good thing it's back now.
We are here to stay, I am actually happy to announce we have recently reached 250'000 domain names under management and we expect to exceed 300'000 before year's end.
Hi,
I have not found much info here on NP regarding InternetBS - and some of the info I found, I didn't find very trustworthy (a bunch of newby posters commenting how great Internet BS is :blink: )...
Is there anyone here that has been using them for a long time? Any problems?

I really like the free who.is offer and would like to move most of my domains over.
Thank you
Marco, I have moved 30 names to Internet.Bs already and so far I am very satisfied
I am going to move a few more names next week...
Thanks!
Anybody received a mail about Internet.bs new prices?
Dot com costs now 8.35 USD there.

Hi Marco thanks for the update.
The new price structure is clear on the site, I had no problems with that although I had not got the email.
I look forward to you offering a Masspay option.
Are you going to offer .me domains?
Guys, I think I owe you all some clarifications.
We have started an emailing about 2 weeks ago informing our customers of the end of the .com promotion, in fact .com have been at USD8.35 since a very long while, however we were offering a promotion that was clearly visible in our front page. The promotion is now over and the regular price $8.35 applies.
We had a major issues when we started emailing to our 250'000+ domain holders as some of them flagged our emails as spam simply because our customers are not used to receive email from us, we practically send zero emails besides when explicitly requested by the customer, for example for support.
As such most of the largest email providers started filtering/flagging our emails as spam and in order to prevent a catastrophe we had to suspend the mailing. We know that other competitors are sending bulk emails in a regular basis and we assume we have been penalized by the fact that we do not send those emails in a regular basis. We are now studying an alternative approach to send notifications to our customers by Facebook, Twitter and RSS Feeds. If you have any suggestion, you are more than welcome, we are eager to explore ways to better serve our customers and we would love to be able to send notifications in a regular basis.
Our new pricing structure tends to offer a better price to our customers buying domains for more than 1 year and that’s because when you pay for a single year most of the potential profit is absorbed by the credit card processor as fixed per transaction fee. If you spread the fixed per transaction fee over a larger period (i.e. registering a domain for 2 years or more) we make an economy and we are able to offer .com registrations down to USD7.99/year including ICANN fees for a 10 years period, which I am practically sure it is the best deal you can find around.
We will shortly release a new pricing level reserved to customers paying by wire transfer or Paypal Mass Payment only, the idea is to offer better prices to those customers that are allowing us to minimize our payment processing fees. With such an approach we should be able to offer .com Registrations and Renewal at only USD7.99 from the first year and with no other commitments.
We have noticed that most people have appreciated our new pricing structure as registrations have increased of more than 25% since we released it and we are sorry for not having been able to better communicate with our customers because of the above mentioned spam filtering issue.
PS: if you check our full pricing list, you will notice that in average most if not all of our prices have decreased, again provided you don’t buy for as single year only.
Are you referring to Paypal Mass Payment or to another processor?
Hello Marco
Yes I did mean Paypay Masspay.
I too wonder if there will be any discount for making advance payments to load your account, another registrar does discount prices if you preload $500 to your account. A good idea imo.
