    Email from enom

    I think this fits better in this forum than the enom section:

    Just in from enom:
    Valued Customer,

    In July 2011, eNomCentral was notified by VeriSign that it plans to raise the cost for their respective TLDs on January 15, 2012. As with previous VeriSign price increases, eNomCentral must adjust our pricing such that we can absorb the increased costs for reselling VeriSign’s TLDs.

    Historically, eNomCentral has always been resistant to raising our prices. Our goal has always been to provide domain name and value-added services at competitive rates. Unfortunately, based on this announcement from VeriSign, eNomCentral must modify our pricing to address the increased cost of reselling these VeriSign TLDs.

    The purpose of this notification is to inform you of our new pricing.

    Effective January 14, 2012 the new customer pricing will be:

    New Tier Price: $39.95

    If you have any questions, please contact us at +1(425)974-4689 or customercare@enom.com.

    Sincerely,
    eNomCentral Support Team

    Dumped enom. Unfortunately for some sellers (and for me), I will not buy any names at an enom account.

    They do this not to compete with their resellers, but any time I needed to renew I call them and they drop the price down to $8

    "Verisign announced that as of Jan. 15, 2012, the registry fee for .com domain names will increase from $7.34 to $7.85 and that the registry fee for .net domain names will increase from $4.65 to $5.11."

    Gee. I wonder how they can get buy on only $39.95 a year.

    Gotta love how they address you as a "Valued Customer" as they bend you over.

    I replied to their email with this:

    "New Tier Price: $39.95" + "competitive rates"...how far do you have your heads up your ass?
