My personal domain is currently paid for 9 years in advance. Namecheap also notifies me if automatic renewal did not work due to credit card issues via my personal email address. I've also set real-time health checks on my domain to run periodically (via a service similar to Pingdom) and I should receive SMS and email alerts whenever there's something wrong with it, like MX entries not found, or the domain's expiry being in less than two months. > "If you get a new phone subscription with a different phone provider, the phone providers are required (in the EU at least) to allow you to keep your phone number" This is true, but if you stop paying for your subscription, or you stop recharging your prepaid SIM card, you will lose that phone number. In essence it isn't any different than paying for your own domain name.
