Anybody ever use a registrar called iPower?

[waiter]

I'm researching registrars and iPower seems to have cheap reg fees. Anyone have any feedback about iPower?

Stay away... Stay away... Did I mention Stay away...?

Where to begin...

Ok... yes they have crazy cheap prices... but each domain seems to come with its own login they email to you... Imagine having 1,000 logins for 1,000 domains!?!?

#2, I wasnt able to find a way to cancel or to set these domains to not auto-renew. They may have changed this...I dont know. But like clockwork, they auto billed my credit card a year later for all the domains I tried..9 out of 10 were junk so I was upset. Finally got this taken care of.

#3, Imho... Any company with practices like these wont be in business long so why trust your domains with them? Go with enom, godaddy or moniker.

Hope that helps.

I regged one name with them.

Could never even find a place to log in.

Customer support? I would presume that it existed...but I would never know...no response.

iPower is one of the largest webhosting company. They specialize in webhosting not domains. Thats probably why they aren't prepared.

They also charge a $25 fee for a change of ownership. I made the mistake of regging domains with them, and when I sold one, I had to get ahold of a customer service rep for help because of their change of ownership process. He basically told me it would be a lot easier if I just transferred the domain to another registrar! :lol:
