    I registred a domain at instant-deploy.com
    I pay for it but it says it is pending (for about 8 days)
    It is scam? Or what? Why don`t activate my domain:|?

    create a real link for you to let the spiders to crawl the domain,
    www.instant-deploy.com
    have you contacted them via email?
    why you register domain form this horrible site?!
    if you pay by paypal, it would be have a chance to get back your money.
    think twice before spend any money on unknown sites.

    This company is reseller of Name.com, I think you should tell you story to them. I hope they will help you.

    just do a charge back :D :D

    dude if a domain has name.com nameservers that doesn't mean they are resellers of name.com. instant-deploy.com is registered in name.com thats it.

    Bro, FYI I didn't checked name servers, I checked this company's ICANN Registrar and Name.com is a ICANN registrar. ;)

    Secondly I agree with

    Don't worry too much about it since it has happeded.Just try to contact them as possible as you can.Price is just one factor when you decide to buy something.
    Next time,maybe you should also pay attention to other things such as service,brand ,fame and etc...

    I think they use Directi as a domain registrar

    I also did multiple support tickets with them but still no answer :(

    I think we all need to contact paypal and let know other users that it's not trustworthy company

    At least you can contact Name.com to get any help of sort. they may close this scam. If you bought via paypal you can try a chargeback. moreover domain name at 0.99 is surely scam. How many domains you bought?

    May be they are busy with some sort of work on their end which is more important than their customers :)

    instantdeploy has an account here on DP

    but it shouldn't take long for a domain name to be registered, i use dynadot and if i register a domain it starts resolving in about 5 minutes

    just on a quick glance of this thread it sounds like you should find a reputable registrar, maybe research the ICANN policies on what instantdeploy is doing, I'm not even sure if it's legal...
