Subject: VeriSign/NetSol 30 day
period
NetSol/VeriSign has given me problems in the past
regarding one of their 'somtimes-enforced' policies. Namely, they will
not allow a transfer of registrars within 30 days of a renewal date. For
example, if my domain expires on July 30th, I have to initiate (and complete)
a transfer of registrars by the end of June, or else VeriSign will simply NOT
send the ACK email to the admin contact. When questioned on this policy,
they refer to their TOS, but I have looked it over with a fine tooth comb and
cannot find anything mentioning this particular policy. Now, my question
is this:
1. Who at VeriSign can I confront about
this? Their domain techs say that they're not allowed to discuss the
TOS.
You will not get a hold of anyone helpful. You
will be lucky if you do not get left on hold and you will be lucky if it is
someone that can speak the same language as you. Even if you do speak to
anyone of may be "Helpful" nothing will ever come of it from past experiences.
2. Is this a legit rule? ICANN says
nothing about it, yea or nay?
;o)
3. If noone at VeriSign will speak up about
it, who else can I turn to (besides God)?
Renew, move it and do a charge back. That is the
ONLY option that you have. It will only cause their stocks to drop even more
and I sure won't cry because of that. I will throw a block party though
;o)
