Nameserver stopped working

My site theguid(dot)ga had been working for about a year with no problems and then suddenly stopped. Logging into my portal it says I need to change the nameservers from four different freenom(dot)com listings to the two cloudflare provided me with. When I log into freenom the nameservers are still those two that cloudflare provided me with and no others. I’ve even tried deleting them and putting them back in and saving and then waiting 4 days to update and it hasn’t changed. Cloudflare is still seeing those four freenomcom nameservers and the freenom site still says I only have the two correct name servers in there. Any ideas?

From my experience with Freenom, they may take back domains at any time. According to their free domain TOS, you don’t actually own the domain and they can pretty much do whatever they want with it.

I recommend getting a domain from a different registrar.

On a different note, I’m not seeing any nameservers listed for theguid(dot)ga

And with further digging, I have found this post.

Oh wow, good find. Yeah I figured it would be a ■■■■ shoot using a free site like that, so I suppose I can’t complain too much. Thanks for the help!
