As there is a lot of talk online about Internet.bs being a registrar that looks after their clients, offers bulletproof domains, etc I would just like to share my recent experience with them:

My competitor sent them a fake complaint about my website claiming infringement (this has happened with other registrars before and it was communicated to me or resolved or I was able to transfer my domain name)

They disconnected my domain about 18 days ago, on the 5th of May without any communication or notice or anything. The first I found out about it was when I visited the site and saw it was dead.

I emailed them and ask them to resume my service of give me my EPP code so I could transfer to a new registrar. They requested a copy of my drivers license, passport & utility bill. I provided that to them 10 days ago - and guess what happens next?

They RE-ENABLE my domain name but point the name servers to their parked page so they can earn ad revenue from my traffic and customers, and that was the last I've heard of the situation.

So please avoid my mistake and go elsewhere - even GoDaddy, NameCheap etc are more reliable as "bulletproof" registrars because at least they give you the EPP code to go elsewhere.
 
Here is your answer.It seems you have being doing something illegal or spam to the death.

It takes A LOT in my experience with them to suspend an acct or domain, no registrar is "bulletproof". They all have to bend the knee to central bodies otherwise they won't be selling .com's for long, mentioning them in the same sentence as GoDaddy is laughable.
 
Bulletproof registrars have their limits too

You can avoid this problem in the future by reaching out and getting the 'inside scoop' on the most 'extreme' you can get away with

Stay within those lines and you should be good to go
 
Try ovh, I sent them complaints after complaints about a competitor stealing my complaint, they didn't do anything ,just replying I have to contact authorities for that kind of stuff.

server229, are you with Internet.bs?

@ zopathrow, I've been using Internet.bs for around 11 years, and never had an issue with 800+ domains. If there is a claim of infringement, they actually do contact you. And by the way, the .bs is for the Bahamas.

This seems fishy to me...

Hello, internet.bs are they still reliable?
Have they moved to a new website after crackdown?

Can i get any recommendation for registrars that are lenient to controlled substances and DMCA?
