I still believe that eNom is the best registrar over the world.

If you only have a few domains, you probably won't notice the constant technical problems they have, but if you have many domains, you start running into them very often, and it becomes annoying.

I just have a few domains,so maybe you are right,thanks for advice.
 
I dont think Enom is in the bottom 100.

TotalNic, Dodora and RegFly are vile. Dot reg was a 4 out of 10 for me, so I don't think they are THAT bad.
 
Worst I have experienced: DotRegistrar.com. What a nightmare, including their push-system and tryng to make changed to WHOIS info for .US domains... Luckily I don't have any names with them anymore.

I dont think registerfly is a real registrar.
 
RegisterFly.com is pretty bad. They just emailed me about a domain renewal, but I transferred out that domain --months ago.
 
Well, this thread was helpfull... I was wondering every time I tried to transfer a domain I have from totalnic it kept getting declined. The notice said that either the domain wasn't 60 days old or that it was locked at the registrar. Well, it was reg'd in august so the 60 days doesn't hold, and after spending 15 minutes trying every screen of their crappy interface I could not for the life of me find a 'lock/unlock' domain feature. Submitted a 'ticket', so we'll see what happens... otherwise I'll just keep submitting the transfer every couple of days until it goes through :)

I guess one advantage of the damn WLS is that these subpar home-office registrar's won't get any more business from snapnames.

Totalnic = letter sent to Australia to request unlock and transfer!
No way from the control panel interface.

oh lord... I don't think the domain's even worth that...
 
And the letter must be notarized :-(

Or did you get the domain via SnapNames?

Yes, I got it through Snapnames.
 
Don't bother with the notarized letter to Australia; they simply ignore it anyway.

Contact NELSON _AT_ SNAPNAMES.

He will get TotalNIC to unlock and transfer your name.
 
Thank you much for the tip.

Notarized letters... I tried that once -years- ago with Network Solutions and didn't have any luck either.
 
#1 TotalNIC
#2 TotalNIC
#3 TotalNIC
 
The worst I have probably ever encountered is registerfly. Those people have not answered their phone in months. Emails and tech support are retarded and cannot be reached PERIOD. These guys are shmucks in the buisness.
 
Yes, I got it through Snapnames.
Email totalnic and tell them you got the domain name through Snap and you would like it unlocked.

Try to suck up :-D

I would be afraid to have TotalNic mad at me while I have domains there.
 
I dont know what is this with OnlineNIC but i am using them for over 2 years and i never had any serious problems, nor problems with their support (my hosting company is using them and has about 1.500 domains there, and me personally about 200). IMHO currently they are one of the best registrars on the market (with the best price also). Not saying that they are perfect (they have lot to work) but saying that i have never had any problems with them.

My list of the worst registrars:
#1 - Joker.com -> looses domains thru accounts, heavy transfer-out process
#2 - AITdomains -> steals domains (signes them to their own co.)
#3 - Directi -> most complicated interface i have ever seen
 
itsyourdomain - locking domains
droa - need I explain
register.com - only out for the almighty $
