I am venting here... I had my CC stolen a couple months back. We don't carry a balance (pay it off every month) and it is more of a convenience issue. Anyhow, the card got locked down because someone in Hungry was buying stuff on it.
Big pain, but got fixed up quick enough, so I thought.
We don't have a lot on it but one biggie is a handful of domain names. I had gone and thought I updated them. Well well well to my surprise as I went to go work on one it had expired. And I had JUST checked a couple months back. I guess the issue is with Godaddy that I needed to update CC info on EVERY domain. So now I lost 1 domain I paid $500 years ago for plus they want over $300 to restore 3 others.
It really is all my fault that I didn't ensure all the records were properly consolidated after we moved last year and that when the CC was stolen I didn't double and triple check to ensure all of them were updated. My excuse is I have been waaaay too busy, but still my fault. If it was important to me I would have made sure it was done and done right. Grrrr
That said the idiot buying crap off of DirectDrive with my old CC info ... sigh, I am so mad it isn't even funny. The worst part was the domain I lost had a special purpose and a guy who has been pestering me for a long time about buying it (no is no dude) snatched it up for unsavory purposes. This is why I KNEW it was on autorenew and not due because I checked it back at the beginning of the year. Which just happened to be the time my CC was stolen.
Now excuse me while I go and break something. Preferably something of my own because this is my fault anyhow.
