EuroDNS update: Business decisions aren’t based solely on finances

A week ago, I announced my decision to drop EuroDNS from any domain registrations in the future.

My decision was based on the type of response and subsequent lack thereof, that I received for an issue with a number of expiring domains.

When making a business decision, the financial aspect of it is a single parameter; one should consider other important factors, such as:

  • The time it takes to resolve issues, when they arise.
  • The efficiency of these resolutions, when they are offered.
  • The overall time needed to proceed with functions related to the product or service, without involving customer service.

After I voiced my decision, I was conducted by the EuroDNS representative, Isabelle Van Bergen, who – to her credit – did her best to resolve the issues I was facing, and I am thankful for her intervention.

Unfortunately, timing is important and by the time she performed a series of actions, I had made a series of decisions. Our choices differ, and our paths are now split.

EuroDNS credited my account with a number of ‘price differences‘; while I appreciate this, I am left essentially with credit that I have no use for – unless it was returned to my credit card.

While some might believe that I was harsh in voicing my frustration, it represented real circumstances that also affect others besides me; hopefully, EuroDNS will take this into account in their next round of improving their process and customer service.
