So had a bunch of domains expire. There was an issue with the card.
So they tell me yea yea it's "recoverable" .....sureeeeeee! @$80 a pop!
They said I only had 18 days "window of opportunity" to renew normally.
I misunderstood thinking I had 45 days.
Why did I think this??! Is 45 days the time for something else?
I think my other domains also expired over at another registration ( same card issue).
That registrar I think if I remember correctly said I had 45 days.
Did this other registrar change their grace period?
I do recall with with this "problem" registrar that they give you 45 days to delete domains you autorenewed for full refund.
Could that have confused me?
The domains are with a GoDaddy reseller.
Can someone clarify this for me?
I'm assuming these time frames are the same with all registrars.
I have a scheduled phone call with the rep later today.
He said he will work out a deal for the domains that expired past the 18 days.
With a "significant" discount.
Now I wonder how much "discount" from $80 can there be?
I bet it will be $50? I'd be happy with $20 but probably going to be $30-$40.
Any advice ?
Did different registrar's have different redemption periods?
