Logged onto 123-reg this morning to renew one of my regular domains, and I noticed a .uk domain charge a few weeks ago for a 4 year renewal totalling £47.95. No confirmation had been sent out before or after this payment was deducted from my credit card.
Called up their support line and asked them who had authorised the new product on my account. Whilst not answering the question they said that as I had never requested a credit before they would cancel the charge. I told them that I didn't want their kindness, I wanted my money back pronto and that they should be lucky I don't seek legal recourse for the blatant scam that this was.
Biting the hand that feeds IT
