It's hardly surprising sadly. Looking back through my submission history there's two instances of incompetence by the .IO handlers:

1) Storing passwords in plain text: Although the post is now down, it pointed to the fact that Nic.IO will email you your password in plain text. Something which everyone that's spent more than a few weeks coding should know not to do.

2) Another pretty major outage back in 2013 that rendered two of my sites offline.

I personally stopped using them after my last IO domain lapsed but this should serve as a stark warning to anyone thinking they can pick up a cute IO domain
