I have been using Porkbun for domain name registration until now, but I wanted to move to a European registrar. When I registered a domain, I received this email. Is it normal?. If not what registrar do you use? I have filled in my name and address while registering an account and have 2fa on. It's an id verifier app.

To infomaniaks credit they gave me a refund instantly when i asked.

Also a shoutout to joker. Been there for 20(ish?) years. Never an issue.

Old- looking UI which i actually appreciate

You can also very easily register as a reseller for less expensive renewals.
