Ask HN: Registrar Horror Stories?

3 pointsby noselfpromoteabout 3 years ago
We had a recent drama with namecheap here on HN. I still have unresolved ticket with OVH since 2015. I would love to switch to one better Competitor. Can HN help me make the right move?

Do you want horror stories or do you want recommendations for registrars? Your title and post content are conflicting.<p>In either case, I don’t have any horror stories. But I can recommend Hover. To be fair, I really don’t do anything beyond the basics with my registrar. I have 3 domains. One points to a GitHub pages destination. The second simply redirects to the first. And the third is configured as my email domain on Fastmail. But in the 5+ years I’ve been using Hover for those domains, I’ve never had any issues. And renewals are always made known way in advance with many reminders.

I’ve used Dynadot for many years and IMHO it works very well.

I’ve seen Gandi (sp?) suggested a few times.
