hi- i'm in the unfortunate position of being stuck with dotregistrar.com as the registrar for a domain. i've had a bunch of problems with them in the 11+ months that the domain has been parked there, but none as bad as this: they refuse to transfer my domain to another registrar, have blocked that transfer consistently over the past 5 months, and i'm running out of time before the domain registration expires. dotregistrar appears to be a subsidiary of iholdings.com; unfortunately they're about as responsive as dotregistrar - i've called them a bunch of times, left 2 messages, but never heard anything back. my question is this: do i have any recourse to fix this situation, or can a poorly-run registrar such as this one basically force me to pay them to renew the domain? i tried to use ICANN's registrar problems reporting, but that appears to be unreachable (not sure if this relates to the ICANN problems discussed earlier). thanks- dan |
