i think renewel prices should be discussed when asking about all these different registrars. sometimes that can make a HUGE difference......
gosh, its bright here, i could use some sunglasses or something....

You are right, although many of them actually offer renewal prices quite similar to the usual registration prices - except during the many promos they make in order to attract customers.

However, this being a thread specifically on RegisterFly, there is no discussion: Registerfly ceased to be a reliable, honest registrar, and everybody should avoid it.

Still swindling people

I just got an email from them, sent to my old address of record at Registerfly, telling me I had two expired domains in my account. The link took me to a new regfly.com domain, with the same look and feel and logo as the old. I next tried the old registerfly.com domain and it didn't resolve.

After reading the latest incarnation of the registerfly Wikipedia article and then the latest posts at registerflies.com (highly recommended), I returned to the regfly.com site.

My old ID/password worked at the new domain, but the site had no indication of my old domains, even on a tab labeled "classic" which is supposed to show the old registerfly domains.

The site did however say to go to classic.regfly.com to get back the old interface. I was able to log in to that site too. There, it showed "2" under expired domains. Clicking to be shown them, after very, very long response time, showed me two names that I had already got out long ago and that are now happily registered elsewhere.

What I can't understand is this:

Since these swindlers are so discredited by now, and indeed deserve to be serving jail time by now, why would they try to rehabilitate a brand-name that has such bad will?

Wouldn't a smart swindler invent a new name to start over with, or set up a new front company to buy some established other registrar and start swindling again there?

It's just amazing that the same people would set up a bunch of new shell companies, split the assets up across the different companies (the website code, the database, the domain portfolio, etc.), pass the assets around a few times to avoid the existing court orders,... but then start up again using the same logo and brandname!!!

Stupid.

I received an email telling me I had 21 domains there. I tried to log in but after 10 minutes, the page still didn't resolve. It wasn't true, anyway, since I haven't used them in years and didn't autorenew any domains there. Anything that was there had expired long ago.
