i did a mistake and lost 34.95 $ - i tried to cancel the account but mistakenly i forgot to approve it - i noticed it after my paypal was debited. although domain was not very useful i extend it one more year via transferring it to another reigstrar - i paid 1.99+34.95+transfer cost for 3 years.

Yahoo charging 34.95 to renew a domain is ridiculous! I mean if they are going to up the prices, especially in this economy, due it like to 14.95 or maybe even 19.95….those prices are doable. But to go as far as 34.95 that is just insane and it just goes to show you that yahoo is the worst place online – I think everyone should ban using them for yahoo mail, news, and more! Who is going to join me?

I have successfully transferred mine. And I got an email from Yahoo this morning.

I’m the unlucky one. I was charged $34.95 by Yahoo without any notification on the price increase!

Same as you, I will transfer my domain to godaddy too.

I haven’t seen any notices about my domain from Yahoo. I had transferred the domain a year ago to Godaddy immediately after purchasing it from Yahoo. Yet, yesterday Yahoo charged my credit card the $34.95. This seems a bit absurd to me.

[...] I was out on hold for more than 30 minutes, I found another blogger posted this information too. We had the same situation, our credit cards were about to expire. But thanks [...]

I found this post while I was waiting for a operator in the call to Yahoo’s customer services. Yes, it’s indeed increased. Thanks for the info btw.

Going to do the same as you did – move to Godaddy.com

gbyeow,

I receive another email from Yahoo, titled “Account Suspension Warning”. Emailed Yahoo support. Not sure I’ll end up in the same fate as you, or it would be successfully transferred to GoDaddy.
