I can see a number of these getting picked up - there a few others I'm surprised they accepted the high reserve and can't see selling because of it. What do you think?

doteasy is netsol little brother
Any promo’s read the fine print
Bulk renewal only if you call. Only been able to use cc
Worst registrar north of 49 for sure

 

[esdiel]

doteasy.com states that they only take credit cards but they invite a call to discuss alternative payment options. anyone know if you can set up paypal with them?

Can't say i've used them before. And apparently you need to buy a domain there as part of their sign up process.

For those who don't know, they are offering .CA registrations and transfer-ins for only $5 CAD (up to 5 domains), so I'm half tempted to transfer a few domains there... I just can't find anything on their website which speaks to the process for transferring out, which makes me a bit skeptical. I may just wait till black friday/cyber monday comes along before i make any decisions.

To Be Released (TBR) Weekly .CA Picks for November 20

The .CA numbers have dropped again, and the overall quality of the list is down noticeably. Other than one truly premium LLL, there really isn’t anything else in the same class, and our Top Picks list is shorter than usual, featuring...

the process to request an auth code seems to be pretty straight forward. it's all there in my domain info. i have one name registered with them and i have some .cas up for renewal and the promos are attractive except the lack of paypal.

Thanks for letting me know! I just read bad things about netsol (when trying to transfer-out), so hopefully they aren't the same. They do indeed have good deals happening there so I think i'll try them out soon.

i can't speak for others but i have transferred out from netsol with no problems.

Aside from domains "allegedly" being stolen from there, the main complaint I heard about netsol was that it took at least 3 days to get the authorization code, and you had to fill out a form etc in order to do so.

yes it can take up to 3 days. i prefer something like ionos.ca where the auth code is right there in you acct details.

Read the fine print. For promo you either pay the $15 renewal or $15 to unlock the name. I jumped on their promo. Transfers. They also told me if i transfer out within 60 days of renewal i would lose that year.lie lol
go try unlock your domain cabotower
I renewed at $15cad cause is 15usd to unlock and transfer if you didnt renew at regular price. Fine print. Cira should be slapped for allowing them on promotions page
Edit: had to renew each one individually on cc cause of netsol type support

Man, I haven't seen that scam in a long time.

So... if I wanted to transfer a domain from Doteasy.com to Godaddy (for example), I would first have to pay Doteasy.com $15 USD just to unlock the domain, plus the usual/normal cost to transfer out to GoDaddy?

Are registrars even allowed to charge you to just unlock a domain? That's not even a service...

Registars used to do that way back when to dissuade people from transferring out, but I haven't heard of it returning in a very long time. I think they all got shamed to death.

The crap Registars used to pull (and get away with) would make your hair go white.

Interesting lol. Definitely a borderline scam, if not outright.

They can't just hide unreasonable terms like that in TOS/fine print. Courts have acknowledged that nobody reads that shit so anything in there has to be "reasonable" and pass the "what would the reasonable person think" test. That said, I can't see anyone challenging them on it... The most efficient way to have them remove that fee would probably be by shaming them for it, like @DomainRecap mentioned earlier... but then their "promo" would most certainly disappear.

i got sched.ca on a .88CAD promo so the transfer fee applies to me. by the time i get it transferred out it will cost approx $24CAD. their exchange rate for $1USD is $1.45CAD.

 

[andrewschnarr]

Anyone pick up anything nice? DomainRecap, I was surprised not to see B12.CA and Inspections.ca not on your list... Picked up fast again today.

I got:
Axer.ca (could be typo of acer or an axe throwing business)
igvn.ca (had some backlink posibilities)
Dealt.ca (good poker or card game site)
Rewardz.ca (could be used like rakuten)
Slept.ca
2027.ca

Netsol and anyone associated with them should be avoided like the plague. They push all their practices to borderline scam level. They don't show pricing on their website, just searching for a domain automatically puts it into your shopping cart, initial prices are almost always considered a promo so that they can hide the renewal prices from you (which are like $40 range). And they auto-renew domains a couple months before expiry, so by the time you think about moving a domain out, too late, they've already charged your credit card. They use the "for your security" guise as a way to make it difficult to transfer domains, and when you do try, only then do they use it as an opportunity to offer a more reasonable renewal price. They rely 100% on people who are ignorant to typical domain pricing, or are too lazy or busy to jump through the transfer hoops, or are a business where the employees don't give a shit what price they pay, they just process the bill. As a domainer, if you deal with netsol, you'll likely regret it. As for any associated companies, I just figure they are guilty by association and would personally avoid them too.

It was another tough week and I didn't get enough time for a thorough search before this morning. I usually do some queries on common terms/words, and then a manual eye-scan up to 14-15 letters, but I only made it to 10 this week with a quick run to unlucky 13, so I definitely missed Inspections at 11 letters.

But I do have a snow removal service this year, so that will definitely cut down on the number of strokes I have this year shoveling that big beast.
