    Hi all
    One of my client wanted me to book one domain so, i thought of doing that straight away with go daddy as i have been with them more than a year They showed unavailable domain available to me straight away i booked that domain paying to them after some time, i used to get an email saying your domain was not successfully registered The payment will be deposited into your card in five business days i thought that was the message i got due to some technical reasons the next i did try to block that domain the same thing repeated did not know what is happening i did search for that domain with them they have sent an email saying the domain name you are looking for is available with us since some date which was not available with them from that data again, i went and booked that domain got the same result so, i thought of trying that other registrars it was saying domain is pending renewal stage not in available stage They should guide me with proper information know which they did not do as of that i lost my client for not providing him right information on right time
    The next thing happend to me is they charged my credit card twice for the same products

    Yes, this is correct.

    Personally I wouldn't use Godaddy, they suck but go with whatever floats your boat...

    This sounds like a bug and it also has happened to me in the past.
    But I think they are attempting a real scam now. I described what I experienced here: GoDaddy scam

    1AND1 and GoDaddy are the worst domain sellers out there, especially 1AND1. Use NetFirms instead, its cheaper and better service.
