Hello,
Thank you for getting in touch!
Indeed, your account has been scheduled for automatic renewal 15 days prior to expiration date and was renewed automatically for the standard 1 year period. Let me explain that this is made for the convenience of our customers, the greater majority of whom prefer having their accounts renewed on an yearly basis. Thus, you do not worry about expiration and possible suspension of the service every month.
We are aware, however, that there are always customers who might not be happy with the universal solution and not authorize such a transaction as they would prefer a different solution. To give such customers like you an opportunity to choose a more convenient renewal cycle, we send early reminders about the upcoming renewal and the expected renewal period. I see from our system logs that you have received 2 notifications regarding the forthcoming billing. As you have not informed us that you did not wish to go with the suggested cycle and you have not renewed manually on a more preferable one, our system automatically billed you for the standard term of 1 year.
I completely understand that this might be confusing and frustrating for you. Yet, we do our best to give you as early notice as possible regarding the forthcoming renewal and allow you to choose a more convenient solution.
As you might have noticed in the sales receipt you have received, renewal sales are final and non-refundable. Nevertheless, I understand the situation and am willing to work with you and offer you a couple more affordable resolutions of the situation:
-- The first alternative is to use your account with another domain name for another project for example. We will register the domain for free for you. It can be any available domain with the following extensions: .com, .net, .info, .biz, .org, .us Just pick up a domain you would like to have and we will do the rest for you.
-- The other option I can offer you is to switch your billing cycle to 3 months by withholding the applicable 3 months renewal fee of $29.85 and a $30 billing cycle switch fee. With this custom offer you will get a partial refund of $47.55 and your account will remain on 3 months recurring cycle.
I hope that one of the solutions offered will be suitable for you. Please advise how to proceed.
