Hi there. I opened a Shopify store and bought a domain name through them. I switched bank accounts and a charge didn't go through, but I decided I wasn't ready to open my store anyway so I didn't reactivate my deactivated account. I have since decided that Shopify is not the service I plan to use but I would like the domain name access so I can transfer it to Cloudflare.

I cannot access the DNS or nameserver because my account is in arrears, but I have already paid to own the domain name. I reached out to their customer support and they said I will need to pay the outstanding invoice before they can give me access to my domain. Surely this is not right? They are withholding a separate product which I own because I didn't pay for a different service that I have paid for in full and that has been rendered inactive anyway...

I want to transfer my domain from Shopify to Cloudflare. Apparently I need to go through another registrar to do so, which seems ridiculous, but oh well. I've attached a screenshot with their instructions, does anyone have a registrar that allows nameserver changes that I can use as an intermediary, for free?

Check out this Article. Which stock are they talking about? I know not to trust anything Motley Fool says but I am curious to do my own research.

I have been in jhb for a few months after moving from the Cape. I have still not actually been inside the CBD. Most people I have met here basically insinuate that I’m going to get murdered. I assume this is a huge over exaggeration, however a colleague of mine did get robbed at knifepoint on the one occasion he visited as he needed pick something up. I have no business there and get everything elsewhere but I am interested to explore a bit. I have seen relatively good things about Marshalltown and Newtown. Any tips?
