What's your use case? Normally one would go through an aggregator to avoid all the complexities.

we need to receive about 50k sms messages per day. We have a deal with a couple MVNO's where they give us wholesale prices on physical sim cards, but putting them into sms gateways takes a ton of time and the devices are expensive

Would setting a notification sound work? Looks like pushover allows you to do that

well I also get a bunch of non-critical notifications on pushover, so just doing this would mess with my sleep

So who was the registrar and what do the domains host? I do doubt that it was for no reason.

Some small-time registrar that I chose back when I didn't know if the business will take off or not. A shop where you can pay with a card. Somebody didn't recognise the charge and sent a complaint to the registrar. Instead of giving us time to investigate/explain/refund, they locked the domain first. Also, that is what chargebacks are for, I want a registrar that at least knows that much.

IIRC, MarkMonitor charged about $100/year for a basic .com, more if you wanted registry lock and they had a minimum spend in the neighborhood of $10,000/year. Circa 2013, when NetworkSolutions had a phishing incident and I realized my boss was still using NetworkSolutions in 2013...

Thanks. $100-$500 a year for a com I can understand, unfortunately I have 1 domain that needs top-notch support, so IDK if I can justify $10k a year for 1 domain.

Godaddy? I left that clown car of a registar for Namecheap, never looked back.

fuckgoogleplay · 2 years ago

Who said something about godaddy? Namecheap looks decent with their 24/7 support, but there are some horror stories here on HN how they mess with the domains too.

I would love to hear more of this "no good reason and with no warning".

What are the domains hosting?

fuckgoogleplay · 2 years ago

A shop where you can pay for goods with a credit card. Somebody didn't recognise the charge.
