OK, I just spend nearly 200 bucks on buying some domain names in bulk.

I bought that about 24h ago, and I got the order confirmation mail and account created email.

* the domains are not showing up on the admin panel, 24hours after I regsitered them.
*They are not showing up anywhere
*I sent 3 emails now. One 20 hours ago, and 2 about 9 hours ago. No answer. No domains showing up.

Absolutly bad service

Hostway has a toll free number (1-866-467-8929), has you tried to contact them directly ?

Have you tried checking the WHOIS for the domains you just registered and seeing if they appear to be registered to you?

Thank you.

I used the whois feature on the hostway.com site :

Search Result
xxx-xxx.xx is not available
This domain is already registered by our services

I guess I have to wait someone gets off the TV screen at their offices

TV screen? :rofl:

The thread title seems rather harsh. But I guess it's based on how you feel about
it.

I *SUSPECT* they register domains manually.

suspect? I believe they DO, i registered a domain 3 days ago and nothing...beside having my control panel but the current status is "being processed" :rolleyes: , I sent an email to support (which claim they reply in less than 3 hours...seems a lie i dont know)....I've had domains with them before but this kinda bad tho
