t.ly are some cheeky grifters. You sign up to manage your links, then they inform you a couple days later that they are going to delete your link unless you pay them.
Most companies who engage in this type of extortionary business model try to hide it better, but t.ly makes no such effort. They know no that no reasonable individual and very few businesses would pay for a link shortener upfront when free alternatives are a dime a dozen.
Lessons were learned - laughs were had. Be wiser than the rest of us and avoid this company on principle.
