I second that emotion, particularly since the verisign takeover, their=
 databases are seriously messed up and I've found it difficult to even pay=
 for renewing domain names lately. That's before we get to the times when=
 you actually need to phone them to sort something out...

Some I know seem to like register.com but I don't have any first hand=
 experience with them.

Cheers...John
