That's a terrible reason and seems very out-of-character for Tucows.
Isn't this the type of practice that we complain about when other
registrars make it difficult to switch?
If people are only remaining as a customer for a reason like this,
then the relationship has already soured beyond repair -- and this
will make it worse. It's a little insulting that you think we need to
trap customers into remaining our customers.
I was excited about the posibilities with this product but I don't
think I can use this. Any possibility of coming up with a version that
produces nice easily-readable standard HTML?
