I logged into my account today to find that ALL of my domains have been placed for sale in their new marketplacepro without my permission.

These greedy assholes are starting to piss me off.

Geez. That could have gone very wrong. Hopefully you were able to take them out before anything bids were placed, etc.

actually I am wrong, if you change them to removed, they will not show up in a search on http://marketplacepro.moniker.com.

But still, this is bad news for any domains that might be "sensitive"

edit: Ha, and I still have names listed for sale that aren't even in my account any more :/

Moniker is right up there with the top of the scumbag registrars like ENOM now.

Now I have to find a new home for my names.

If you are with Moniker it now looks wise to LEAVE...

I have over 6000 names and their site crashes when I try to remove my names for sale.

Thanks for the info. Was not aware that names were just placed for sale without any action by myself.
Weird though that it shows names that are no longer in my account...

Most of the names I have in moniker are for sale too.

maybe Monte would like to comment on this?

This is how I lost my first UDRP. The previous owner had the name listed at Great Domains. The name being for sale was used against me. If this is used against me again because of these unauthorized listings and I lose a name(s), I'm coming to Monte for reimbursement of the value of the name(s).

I'm sure Monte will reimburse you the full value of any names lost because of this screw up.

Let's hope Google hasn't spidered the listings...

Dunno about anyone else but when i do the Bulk Edit tool to remove them i get this

"We're Sorry...

There was an error in processing your request. Please try again later. If you continue to experience problems please contact us via email here.

We apologize for any inconvenience that this may have caused"

Yeah, you have caused inconvenience by adding our domains to something we never gave Moniker.com permission to do.

IF I want my domains in the martketplace then I will list them there NOT Moniker.com.

Talk about taking the piss

I'm sure we'll get the old "Sorry, just a glitch, not intentional" excuse.

That doesn't fly for me.

Nobody adds a new service then mistakingly adds everyone to the database, I don't buy it.

He thought he could instantly have the biggest domain sales site anywhere.

Wow,

MLB has all their names for sale too.

chicagowhitesox.com only $50 minimum bid

Awsome, I'm sure they will love that.

This is very upsetting and needs to be addressed immediately. I see my names in my account listed as well. Someone should call Monte's cell if they have it. Take screenshots.
