Network Solutions
Egregious $150 fee to reinstate expired domain after transfer request

Consider other Internet registrars before signing on with Network Solutions. This company appears to become uncooperative when customers request transfer of domains to other lower cost registrars. The company was most inconsiderate when outbound transfer was requested to another registrar charging a lot less, $6 per year only to hold the domain hostage when one day expired then charged our restaurant client $150 to get his domain reregistered for another year.

Netsol refused reinstatement without a $150 fee which we consider ransom! Further, Netsol informed the client a cybersquatter would claim his domain then attempt to resell it to him at an outrageous price if he didn't meet their demand for the $150 fee. Needless to say, he caved in. Be aware that registrars do virtually nothing and some charge as little as several dollars a year. Shop around and be aware of these ridiculous penalties against small business owners.
