Hover user charged $3000 for domain renewal after price hike
A Hover customer was billed $3000 for renewing onlyfans.sexy, up from $38, after the .sexy registry raised the price. Hover says it cannot refund because the registry sets prices and charges are non-refundable. The incident highlights risks of premium domain pricing and lack of consumer protection.

This is a cautionary tale about the fine print in domain registrations, where registries can arbitrarily jack up renewal prices with no recourse.
