As you say. Freenetname have a habit of not reminding customers that the
domain is due for renewal until after the date, when they want double
the rate. I can understand anyone taking umbrage at that, as I did, but
for an organisation the size of the Steelers the cost is minimal. It
does seem stupid not to retain an obvious domain name that is well known
and used by many for the sake of a hundred notes or less.
