Okay, that's clear. Regarding the "undo button", as you call it :) :
A domain deletion needs a signed fax of the domain owner (NOT the RSP)
sent to Tucows. The provider/RSP cannot delete them on his own. Does
that sound better to you? :)
However, I don't know why you are being charged?! I can delete domains
with other registrars without any problems and costs, so are you sure
ICANN is not cheating on you? *g*
I have no problems with paying a little fee for deleting domain names,
but we have been waiting about ONE MONTH for the deletion, and we
really need to get rid of those two domains. I am very happy with
OpenSRS, but waiting more than one month for a domain deletion is not
good :-)
Thanks,
Florian
