I have this problem too ... already +6 weeks no reply ...

Are you trying to register a third level domain or a fourth level domain on eu.org? It's possible a fourth level domain request may get processed quicker, from what I heard.

Please define affordable (as a number). The cheaper domains are the standard .net .com but might be harder to find a name you like.

Pay attention to the renewal price more than the initial price though..

There are 'good' free ones like eu.org, will be foxtwo.countrycode.eu.org with https://nic.eu.org/, the rest, you get what you pay for.. You will need to provide your own NS servers though, Cloudflare or HE's DNS as examples of good free services.

I use $1 number.xyz and do not recommend it except for hobby use.
I really don't get emails sometimes.

If you don't have to renew it every year.
How about getting a .com every year with a $1 campaign?
foxtwo2024.com then next year foxtwo2025 then foxtwo2026 for $1. (꒪ཀ꒪)

I tried to make a 3rd level then realised that it might take too long after 1 week w/o reply. Decided to request another 4th level under INT. One more week later, still no reply.

*.nl might be fine, just ~$6/yr and ~$8/yr renew.

Same problem with mail delivery.

most ccTLDs as well as the more "established" gTLDs like .name or even .info. Mainly the cheap-to-get tlds have bad ratings, at least for the big providers.

That also depends a lot on IP

Yup, it does. However, even trying to send emails with Amazon SES and a .eu.org domain, they always go to spam (for gmail and outlook, as well as tutanota for some reason).
