Google is great for this because they will never actually let anyone talk to a human in order to apply social engineering techniques ;)

- toohotatopic 6y agoBut do you lose your domain if google bans your account? The requirement is being able to switch email providers, especially google, when they lock your account. You don't secure your flow of email with a domain if that domain is managed by google, too.
- ztjio 6y agoSo my statement was a total comedic effort not to be taken seriously, I'd never suggest anyone use a company on the basis of terrible customer support. That's what the semi-colon parentheses at the end was meant to signify. To attempt to actually answer your question, I believe the nature of the governance around registrars would ensure you have recourse to transfer your domain in the case that Google be Google. It might not be slick. I don't know. But, it's unlikely they can override the overarching policies for such things and continue being a registrar.
- nogabebop23 6y agoI think the bigger question is how much work it is to update the DNS servers with your registrar and then change your DNS provider. If google locks you out of your email that you use to manage your domain you could be in trouble...
- toohotatopic 6y agoSorry, that went over my head.
- filoleg 6y agoIf you don't use your google account for anything but domain registration, what could they even possibly ban you for? While I am aware that Google tends to have quite a few false positive account bans, it is one of the most extremely unlikely things to happen, if all you do with it is pay for your domain registration.
