early last year.
@oborseth thanks, but I don't want to have anything to do with PB anymore. I was treated with hostile and not even a single "sorry" came out from the support manager for the unreasonable suspension, just trying to enforce his beliefs that I was hosting a phishing site. I hope PB has improved all of this nonsense process/procedures and please be reasonable to your customers.
I don't see it as a nonsense rhyme (???), I just think making an allegation without details makes you a dick. You specifically did NOT "just stated what happened", that's my complaint!
Anybody that's worked in customer/technical service has had someone complain they were rude when really they took offense to something for being uninformed on something.
@r0xz Just curious, where did you move to?
NameSilo. Never had any issues with them for the past ~7 years.
I am not being dick here. Probably you don't understand what you're talking about. Also probably you didn't notice my comment about registrars & registries. When someone breaks your trust what do you do? Will you take the sin from your ancestors being passed to you? You trust Google that in several occasion manipulated their system to make their competitors out of business. Likewise some play stores alike software they marked as "malware". I'd rather trust a community run by sensible persons. Also I am not unaware and uninformed about something I am doing for years(still learning many new things). I have done businesses with many companies. Sometimes there are unskilled/junior employees in business don't want to hear the customer at all. In few cases with Namecheap their customer support agents were unskilled that they denied my request and stated it was my fault/I need to do something to fix. When I showed them the right thing they apologized to me and fixed it right away. In my cases with Porkbun they were arrogant and didn't wanted to listen to their customers which was stated by another members in this thread earlier. You need to listen to your customers. That's how you fix your business. I do like businesses that want to correct themselves. I think and hope Porkbun will fix their customer support agents. I believe they have many earlier chat logs to find out if their customers are wrong or they are. Still there are many ways to improve.
N.B: I don't like spam,phishing,etc either.
No issue yet, using own DNS, despite I would not put everything on one Registar, it sounds like a fucking stupid idea, split it at least among a few.
EasyDNS is nice, has nice support, but they are a bit politically retarded.
Yeah, you just sound butthurt (wah, wah, they broke my trust but I can't give details) that porkbun didn't do whatever you wanted and apologized to you like namecheap. Other people would remember the details or have it in email.
Have about 35 domains with them, no issues so far. Anytime I've dealt with support has been quick and painless
Oneday my one domain is hacked and hacker use my website for hacking. After 24hrs, contabo suspended my account. Then i got call from clients and see all websites are down. Then contact contabo,tell them site was hacked.they unsuspended my hosting. My domain wasn’t affected.
I have 4 domains with porkbun. Just add to cart 3 domains for transfer and waiting for credit card reactivation to pay. Meanwhile i just login LET and saw this.
So many comments here, so what happened last?
Do Porkbun suspend domains if google reported blacklisted?
If yes, i will move out from porkbun.
If no, i will trasfer in 3 more today.
I receive too many mails from hot sisters. There is no way I will keep those waste email to eat my storage. And btw I put the judge in charge and gave him a keyword. Also I have no obligation to prove myself to you. Why don't you try someone else affected in this thread? Don't just stick with me.
No longer according to them. Can't confirm because I don't have any domains with them. Also if your domains get suspended and they are in #clientHold status and they are .com you can still transfer the domain if it's unlocked for transfer and you have the EPP key.
N.B: Keep in mind not to use their DNS hosting in such cases. They will receive abuse in these cases and probably suspend your domain.
Not only Porkbun, but Radix registry also suspends (all their gTLDs) in event if they find there's a phishing attack on a domain (by insertinng malicious script)! So avoid Porkbun & Radix gTDs and stick to Donuts/Verisign or others!
Yup! Namesilo, Reg.com, OpenProvider - all 3 are best and quite liberal too! I'm reselling Namesilo from past 5 years, OpenProvider from last 1 year and soon trying to resell (kind of bulletproof domains) from Dnspod (which is now acquired by giant Tencent).
Does OpenProvider allows reselling? What's your experience with them?
No wonder their parent is Directi.
I dont use DNS from domain provider. I have vps, i host DNS on own server.
So i can tranfer to porkbun. Going to do it now.
Thank you for the heads-up.
Sorry for the necro, but it seems Porkbun loves Google. On their frontpage, above the search bar, they now added a link and logo to a Google page, just for some reviews. They must love Google so much, that they put their whole company on the line for it.
@oborseth - PLEASE STOP SHARING MY DATA WITH GOOGLE!
Just abandon. There is a ton of way wayyyyy better registrars.
namecheap.com
cloudflare.com (only for transfers)
name.com
nja.la
block their ip's/domain's.
look even lowendtalk leaks your ip to twitter google cloudflare etc
That is a link to Google reviews, it's not sharing your data with Google in any way. Well, not unless you click through and leave a review. @Drv is correct, this very website along with all of the others that @LTniger listed other than nja.la uses Google in some way and is SHARING YOUR DATA. I highly recommend using some sort of ad blocker or privacy plugin such as uBlock Origin to help prevent your browser from communicating with sites such as Google, Twitter, etc.
is porkbun reliable? i want to register a .io domain and porkbun offers the best prive and privacyprotection for free.
I appreciate that Porkbun's google review link is literally a google search for porkbun. It's not an abusive, data-stealing widget or external JS include.
Yes they are very reliable, I have used them for quite sometime with no issues, they have domains that are over 20years old of mine, so in my opinion yes
If your doing shady shit then no ..I don't recommend them
They suspend your domain on google report basis... No, they are not reliable.
@LTniger what can you recommend? internetbs? netim? namecheap? namesilo?
They don't do that anymore, unless your using there DNS/Hosting and you don't respond to the allegations, I would think they should have the right to protect themself from the liability
Not true at all @LTniger Read what @acidpuke quoted above for up to date info. Our policy at the time triggered a false positive and the policy was changed, it's really not that complicated.
@oborseth are you an official representative of porkbun?
Looks like he's "Owen", software engineer. A googl^h^h^h^h web search will tell you more.
