Best .de Registrar

EuroDNS sucks imho. I'm looking for another registrar to move my domains to. Anybody know of a major one which will accept .de? GoDaddy, Moniker, Fabulous??

GoDaddy.com & Moniker.com both offering .de to my knowledge, but they are on the expensive site when it comes to .de domains.

Sweet Moniker does and they are less than $9. EuroDNS charges 19 euros - huge savings. Thanks a lot!

i've gotten all my .de names at moniker. eurodns definitely is to be avoided, in my opinion.

Moniker for sure!

I do not recommend Moniker.com for .DE registrations at all. Although Moniker is my favorite registrar for all generic TLDs, you should choose another company for your .DE domains. I once had a handful of .DE domains at Moniker, because I wanted to consolidate all of my domains there, but I quickly ran into problems because Moniker was very slow updating those domains and many updates or deletes requested were not performed at all. The transfer-in and transfer-out of .DE domains was very difficult, too.

It's really better to have a company that is more closely tied to Denic, the .DE registry. This way you can rest assured that all domain changes will be forwarded to Denic and performed in time.

That's why I recommend DomainDiscount24.com, which is not expensive and doing a good job with ccTLDs. DD24 is based in Germany, but it has an English website and many U.S. clients. Personally, I've been using them for years and I've never had any problems so far.
