Yea, put them on auto renew via a credit card and change credit cards or
the card expires. Now how many places was the old card used and it
might be a year before it comes around to bite us. And then accounting
doesn't know who used that card and who has access to that place to
change the card. It's just a big rat hole to fall into no matter how
you slice it in a company.
I personally hate auto-renew for these reasons and make sure my contact
email is always current.
But that's just me.

Note that, as far as I know, NL registry uses a "sunscribtion" model
so domains never "just" expired.
So Voktor probably saw some outage of netfilter.nl (it is up now).
