I missed moving my personal portfolio .co from GoDaddy to Namecheap when it renewed last week and got hit with a $55 bill. EDIT: I'd really like to know why I got down voted on this. My renewal this year was twice the price. Everything at GoDaddy seems to be double what every body else charges and it's fair to be unimpressed with still having legacy products stuck at their company even if I didn't notice/it's my fault. I had a $55 charge from them on my credit card. The page that told me what it was was buried under six clicks. It's shady. |

A few years ago my dad had mistakenly signed up for some dark pattern "premium" SEO/marketing service on GoDaddy for one of his domains. It was over $600 a year and was near useless.
Cancelling this "service" was behind multiple clicks. He gave up on cancelling mistakenly thinking that since his old card had expired he would have a chance to cancel at at a renewal.
Of course GoDaddy was able to charge another $629 on an expired credit card...
Moved all the domains in my family from GoDaddy to Namecheap with no regrets.
