I am hosting a website with internic.ca for the last 10 years. Lats year my credit card expired and the renewal of my domain with internic.ca became a nightmare to the point that I had to register a new domain name with godaddy. Internic.ca uses a one dollar transaction to check if the user is for real. Banks dont like such stupid transactions and block credit cards. And so my credit card was blocked, because internic.ca kept attempting the one dollar verification. Instead of streamlining their processes, internic.ca kept asking me to contact my bank to accept the strange procedure. Not only my credit card got blocked, illegal transactions happened worth 3000 dollars just in those two days I was trying to pay to internic.ca. It seems internic.ca has people in their offices selling credit card numbers to culprits.

Hello,

Thank you for contacting Internic.ca. We are pleased to assist you with your inquiry.

I removed the hold on the account as a one time courtesy. If the credit card you are trying to place on file is a debit or prepaid credit card then the system will not accept it. It only accepts regular issued bank credit cards.

If the card is a regular issued credit card, then the bank my be blocking a pre-authorization which we do for $1 to validate the credit card. This $1 will return back to your credit card account and it is not a charge.

If this is the case, contact your bank and alert them of what you are trying to achieve in order to approve the pre-authorization to place the card on file.

Should you have any additional inquiries, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Best regards,

James
