OK, CIRA has me pulling my hair out again... We have a domain in pending queue because the customer's credit card information (address etc.) was out of date. After spending considerable time on the phone with this person convincing him to go to the bank and update his info so that we can do an address verification, waiting days for this to be done while playing phone tag with the customer, listening to him gripe at us about how he believes he really shouldn't be doing business on the Internet anyway because all this fraud prevention stuff is scaring him, finally getting confirmation that the info is updated and getting a green light from Visa that the info matches... Click "Register Now" in the RWI and it returns: "Domain name is restricted to municipal government."
Now I get to formulate the email that says sorry, we are so incompetant that we didn't even realize ahead of time your domain name is not available to a Canadian Citizen which is exactly what you put on our order form so we should have been able to catch it... Better luck next time! My questions: 1. Why doesn't OpenSRS catch this when the order is placed? 2. Where is the list of municipal restricted .ca names so we can do our own checking in the future?
