Abacus america dba names4ever aka domains. Aplus.net by making Late Fees = 2300% annual rate, they are holding my domain name hostage. San Diego California

On the APlus net website your company endorses them. THis is my experience

Since they are into decepetive ripoff practices, are you?

I think a late fee that exceeds the annual rate of a domain name registration is immoral and flat out a legal method of extortion to Domain Holders. The following is an experience I had with domains. Aplus.net, which is charging 2300% their annual rate for a late fee. My Registar is NOT my host company. I have a different hosting company.

Domain Name: AMADEUSMAX.com
Registrar: ABACUS AMERICA, INC. DBA NAMES4EVER
Whois Server: whois. Names4ever.com
Referral URL: http://www.names4ever.com

This conversation took place from the conversation window I had come up. I went to renew my website DNS, thats the name service for a website. Basically buying your name, your.com. You can buy a.com for $5-$15 for a year, and buy other ones even cheaper, the.Biz or. Tv. Well mine came up in Dec 28th. I didn't realize this but wanted to correct it. This was on February 11th. So I went to www.names4ever.com, which is now http://domains. Aplus.net/. This is chat window came up, which is how you talk to customer service. I am visitor74269.
