I just registered a .re domain at OVH, and the first thing they did was provide me an account I cannot log into and cannot password reset. When I contact their support, they can't help me unless I call an international number.

The whole ordeal gave me such a bad taste, I've postponed using the domain and am thinking of just letting it expire. Such a bad service, when you're used to Porkbun. Domain registrars, on average, are just glorified domain sharks. I really hate how poor the service is when you come from a country where the NIC has been trusted through decades and their CEO comes to schools to lecture about the history of the open Internet.



That's a typical OVH experience.
