Pricing and Support
Centre.RU’s prices are slightly higher than the average market price. You can pay for plans in Russian rubles, on billing cycles from monthly to annual, via payment methods including credit cards, bank transfers, and electronic wallets (such as Yandex.Money, WebMoney, and QIWI, etc.). You get a 30-day cash refund guarantee that runs from your account activation date, but any refund excludes domain registration costs.
Although you can contact the 24/7 customer support team by telephone, email, or online form, I received no reply to my exploratory online form submission. If you have to resort to self-support, you will find a decent enough questions and answers page on this vendor’s website:
