Hm. Very odd choice here. The pricing for 3 years at 50% off is a pretty nice deal for hosting my own domains, I think, and I like Fastmail's interface.
But if I understood the earlier parts of the thread correctly, people are saying they have the right to just take my money and stop service at any time... why on earth would I give them my money, then? I'd go with a company that won't do that.
Ah well. Mine was free and I've used it less and less over the years, probably time to let it go.
I do feel for the people who are upset they paid lifetime and are losing their email, though.
