About SavHost
Unsolicited renewal offers from third parties
We would like to advise you of a business practice that is becoming common in the domain marketplace and which may result in you inadvertently transferring your domain business away from SavHost.

With increasing frequency, outside companies are making unsolicited offers directed towards our customers. It has been brought to our attention that these letters have been causing a great deal of confusion among our customers.

It is of the utmost importance that you ignore ALL communications regarding your domain name registrations except those sent directly from SavHost.

The Trick
A company will send a letter to you, either by email, or via the postal service, thanking you for registering or renewing your domain name. The letter will also invite you, in language that suggests a prior business relationship, to make some change to your domain, or to simply renew it, which will result in the name being transferred away from SavHost and to the new company.

Protecting Your Domain Name Registration
We recommend taking the following steps to ensure that you aren't inadvertently deceived by these solicitations:

1) Ignore ANY communication regarding your domain name registration that is not from SavHost
2) Report any incidents to us directly at dnsadmin@SavHost.com.
3) Send us a sample of any solicitation letters as evidence. You can fax us at 1-800-979-9587 attention DNS Admin.

Additionally, the following resources can be used to help combat these practices in general:
