> I expect them better support

I expect total ignorance from a typical domain registrar.

Take a look who is they registrar and then look their prices up.

> Other domain registrations would just ignored this and nothing would happened

Yeah, they would totally ignore their customer just like that one did.

Unfortunately, providing proper support and protecting own customers in digital realm is an unsustainable business practice for most registrars.

So, in case anyone is interested, their registrar is MarkMonitor Inc., with a pricing of "contact us". The only pricing info I could find [0] said that it's 20$/yr for a .com, but with a minimum spend of 10k$ (probably reached by using their other services, such as the stated purpose of monitoring of trademarks).

Last time I have heard about them it was $5k/y.
