Please do not respond to this email, as this is simply a notification.


and after days and days same mail continued, my 3 registered and paid domains become " Status ENDING DELETE RESTORABLE " . this means domain not paid and not renewed. registrar will delete it after 30 days. restorable option is 150$

send mail to yahoo, melbourne no reply. for example maybe a technical issue occured (why it does not occur with enom, register.com because of quality and price i understand later) yahoo why do you take my money and not paid it back ?
yahoo are u a trickster company ?

and also melbourne is a bad company their wrong to work yahoo and can not see what is happening there.

and the end if you dont want to be mistreated, do not buy domain or any other things after that customer care situation of yahoo and melbourne for your health. ( also send a complaint mail to internic if anybody want to report them http://reports.internic.net/cgi/registrars/problem-report.cgi )

Do NOT send Yahell any mails (they are simply ignoring them), use the online contact form. Worked for me couple of times, with reasonable results (not that I was happy about them).

used that form already. first day i send about dns registration and one reply came about that they said melbourne will do it it must take 24-48h but nothing happenned. after that my offer rejected. :uzi: YAHOO

first day i send about dns registration

Hm... I thought they don't support DNS registration at all...

I bought a domain from some kid who'd registered a cheap domain at Yahoo and then put it up for sale at TDNAM. It turned out to be registered at Melbourne IT. They wanted $20 from me just to update the registrant info (no extension period given) AFTER the domain had already been pushed to a new account opened for me, ie it was already in my account with them. I just transferred it away to my registrar for $6.95 including a 1 year extension. !@#$ them :)

Yahoo offers very inexpensive domain names however the additional "gotchas" all add up

stu2 (http://www.webhostingtalk.com/member.php?u=118107) vbmenu_register("postmenu_3652515", true); congratulations ! you moved and take a deep breath :)

i can't even transfer my domain. yahoo support replied me same email 2 time about 48+ hours response time! . it says

the third one will be !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I suppose some of what Yahoo does must work well for them to stay in business, but when there is a problem you're caught in automated-runaround-land. You can check with http://www.bbb.org for the contact information for Yahoo's Sunnyvale, CA office. If no one at Yahoo will help you, you can send a complaint to Santa Clara County District Attorney, Consumer Protection Unit, in San Jose. That will probably get Yahoo's attention, in which case they may call you and push the one or two buttons they could have pushed to solve your problem.

You get what you pay for should be used here.
I just use domainsite, and never have problems =)

-Wifi

using enom now become a reseller going well. support is nice and help documents nearly fix all my problems.

why not use godaddy or other lg registrar intead of cheap domains
