This isn't true, DDNS has been working fine, PM me if you are having an issue with it.

Sorry, memory failed me. It was the Uptime Watchdog that stopped working, not DDNS. I sent DM's to you that I never received replies to, so I gave up on it.
Looking into this, will resolve. Thanks for reporting.
Thank goodness I don't see "Girls recommended in your area" ads anymore. A BIG sign of improvement. Congratulations 
Keep your eye on them, they're crooks.
At the bottom is a copy/paste of a review I left on Trust Pilot in Jan. of 2024. Almost a third of the reviews are 1 star and if you take the time to read a few they mirror exactly what happened to me....long-time customers got a HUGE increase last year with no warning, and it was auto-debited!
After being a subscriber for 10 years (since 2013) and paying $24.95 a year for 7 years from 2016 until last year, on Oct. 30, 2023 NO-IP debited my credit card for $59.99, a 140% increase without warning...no e-mail, nothing. I was not given an opportunity to decline or to cancel. And no, there was nothing in my SPAM folder.
When I called their phone there was no option to speak to billing/accounting, only support. Their FAQ instructed me to create a support ticket online, which I did, leaving my full contact info.
Three days later I log into my account and there is NO record of my support ticket. I heard nothing from NO-IP until I cancelled my subscription.
I have no intention of continuing doing business with such a poorly run company. When I cancelled I get an e-mail saying "Thank you so much for being a No-IP customer, we really appreciate it." What a way for them to show it. If I could give NO star I would.

That was because he couldn't post in his thread to hit that algorithm. He will be getting those ads again soon LOL.
Your algorithm would pick up the "stalkers in your area" thread
Thank You...I use to have another service years back when I had Yahoo Small Business host a website, DynDNS comes to mind, can't remember. I used DDNS to give to customers, it was my way to proxy the site since also used it personally. That was several years ago. I do remember it was free, I had a program that would run in background to send them/update my present IP back then.
Anyway, I jumped on NoIP.com a few years ago to get a DDNS account and a couple of domain names.
What I have been doing this is manually paying. I get emails of discounts from them so I renew then. Normally around holidays.
I have never given them my CC, been using PayPal, which PayPal would email of any transactions.
But I will keep my eye out, thank you for the warning...so I just checked payment history, paid $29.74 a year.
I pay $15 a year for a domain name with them.
What DDNS service do you use?
I was using IPCT as gold member until it quit working sometime last year; I may try it out if it goes back "up"...we'll see.
Since that time I've been using freemyip.com . For myself I have a static, public IP on my fiber but I have 2 clients that have dynamic IP's so I created hostnames for them on freemyip.com . I did one for myself as well because it's just easier to remember a hostname vs. an IP address. I used the DynDNS drop-down when I configured the clients' routers to refresh the DDNS with the latest WAN IP.
But I can click on your attachment and it comes up. It is a cat.
Good morning all. Thumbnails AND uptime watchdog both fixed (finalizing that now). We are cruising now.

@Mike since your maintenance this week, Tapatalk now has permission problems. It's lacking permission to reply to posts or view image attachments, despite being logged in. The mobile website is great, but I also love Tapatalk for customizable notifications. Can this please be restored? Thanks for all your work.
