iRegistrations (www.iregistrations.com) has merged with Ezinames (www.ezinames.com).

I wonder if iRegistrations’ name change has something to do with their rave reviews … ?

Stay Away!!!

Read the fine print of their agreement and you will see that you are also signing up for hosting and search engine submission. They then charge you $19.95/month for 50 mg’s space and 2gb bandwidth. Plus they charge you $19.95/month to submit your site to 300+ engines. For both items they say you can cancel within 30 days and owe nothing. Here’s the kicker…go to their tos…if you do not cancel within 30 days…they will charge you the $39.98 (both services). If you cancel after the 30 days, they hit you with a $39.98 cancellation fee in addition to the normal monthly fees.

…

What a scam. I have heard many people have been duped by these guys.

Quite right, its sad to see what people will do to get money…
