Unfortunately, I took the unsolicited advice of a 'reputable' JV broker to use Speedy for domain registration without doing due diligence on the company. Lesson learned. :-) You should consider putting together a list of actual registrars and ranking them for cost, reliability, and customer service. Thanks, Dave, for your comment.

What you described is a problem seemingly not too many people, unfortunately, are willing to admit or even talk about for some reason. Nowadays it's going to be harder to tell whether to keep your domain name with an actual domain registrar or a reseller for one. When things like this happen, it ultimately depends on how much the actual registrar is willing to help. Meanwhile, I honestly suggest you move your domain names to an actual registrar. Between a registrar and a reseller, you'll get more "umph" with the former and you can cut down the so-called "middleman" (the reseller). I'll trackback to this when I blog about this soon. Take care. ;) Thanks for sharing your experience, Mike. What you described is a problem seemingly not too many people, unfortunately, are willing to admit or even talk about for some reason.
