Personally, I have heard of/seen a BUNCH of free service providers like
this - the ~vast~ majority of which, are actually grossly over priced.

Not a chance - not even a slim one - I would recommend this service. You
said yourself that the name would not resolve, that makes me think their
service(s) would be less than reliable - at best.

I'm sure you know as well as I do, that even if you offer these services to
your clients as "FREE, but provided by someone else", they will be calling
YOU to "raise cane" the services were . . . not perfect . . . on a 24/7 basis.

Naturally, just my NSHO.
Fuzzy.
