I read your entire post and appreciate your heads up regarding NS and their business practices, but my point is when did you give them your account number? Since you didn't sign up for auto bill how did they know where to send a bill? They must have had a bank name or routing number and your account number. Am I the only one confused about how they got this information?Dave
I used my cc to purchase the domain name for a 'one' time purchase.
Almost ALL websites now save your cc info once you have made a purchase.
So when you return for another purchase plug your name in and your cc info will pop right up.
Some leave the Security code box blank leading you to believe that your card can not be used until YOU put the security code in.
Just last week to prove a point I put a random number in the blank security code box of a saved cc info (on something I DID want to pay for)......it went right thru to my bank with the incorrect security code.So much for that protecting unauthorized use!
I have yet to find a way to delete automatically saved cc info off these sites.
I used my cc to obtain my Godaddy domains with out any problems. Yes my cc info was saved on their site for ease of any further purchases. I checked the NO auto billing and they respected my wishes for 8 years.
So I "assumed" Network Solutions would be the same caliper website....apparently NOT. :(
