We lost our crel.com domain name that we had owned for over 5 years through what we believe to be a conspiracy between Network Solutions (NSI) and internationally.com (a cyber squatter or otherwise known as a cyber pirate) to steel our domain.
Internationally.com then attempted to extort $500 from us to get our domain back.
Avoid the Network Solutions trap
Warning!
We strongly advise you NOT to do do business with Network Solutions (NSI) or VeriSign. NSI is the company that many ISP's register your domain name through if you establish a web hosting account without registering your own domain name first. Don't let them.
Instead, to register your domain names, our current registrar recommendation is namesilo.
