I worked for a company that had all the customer domains through AWS but
corporate was through GoDaddy. The corp accounts were set long before we
decided to use AWS. When we asked GoDaddy about migrating corp to AWS, they
gave us a "suggested actions" sheet and turned off our domains.
Like...immediately. No warning or anything.
