- ambiate 13y agoIf you look at the top right, squinting, there is a "CONTINUE TO SITE" link. It is grey on grey.

- mhurron 13y agoAs much as you would like to think otherwise, Bank employees are just as incompetent as anyone else.
- rubinelli 13y ago> Why large organisations cannot get domain registrations sorted is beyond me. For the costs concerned, auto-renewal is the safest bet. Heh. If it was just a matter of auto-charging from a credit card it would be easy. But in a large company, you have multiple registrars, outdated billing information, acquisitions, different cost centers. It is incredibly easy to let one or two of your tens of thousands of domains to lapse.
