Hello All,

I would like to share this experience that Iv had with a reputed domain booking company "Hostway" today. I tried to book a domain bushandthedraft.com for one of my clients at around 4pm India Time from hostway and I got my Mastercard rejected 3 times (when I called my bank later I came to know that it was charged all the three times). Anyhow after 3 failed attempts I used my other card which was through (atleast so it seemed) as there was no "Credit Card Declined" message.

And I recieved this email from Hostway

This sounds like everything has gone out smoothly but the domain was still available for booking 3 hours later and after a few minutes I got an email from them saying

This took me to a form where I had to fill in loads of information which they already had asked earlier while booking the domain.

Anyhow I filled in this information also and the domain was still available when I checked after two hours and I proceeded to another registrar and booked the domain again for which I had already paid to Hostway. I didnt mind paying twice (infact this was 5th time if I also consider the charges made to my first card by Hostway while they were saying its being declined) as my client wanted this domain to be booked ASAP.

In a few minutes the domain was active to my name and was also mapped to the correct server where it was to be hosted. After a couple more hours I got another email from Hostway saying

This took me to another form which was a printable form.

I got this email a few minutes ago only and Now that the domain is working already, they are still asking for the FAX / MAIL of this form and Front/Back of my Credit Card. All I am thinking now is that I can get a personal loan from any bank by doing these formalities for an amount as much as 500,000 INR which is more than USD 10,000.

What a fast domain booking process, Hostway??
