Yikes! NOT a good situation. i think we ought to have a hall of
shame and
boycott such companies. Even from a purely commercial angle, these
people
MUST be taught a lesson. i guess let's have a hall of shame on our
website
as for this. We could also have a meter which people can click on
saying :
``Total number of people agreeing to boycott so and so company".
there is a company called reduff or something. A friend booked a
domain name through them. I was supposed to set up the site - so she
went to the admin panel and tried to point the domain to my
nameservers. The menu option was there, it said 'done', but the
domain was not getting pointed. She contacted the co, they said it
will take 48 hours to propagate. She kept trying for a week. Nothing
happened. Then I tried and found redirection was not working - it had
been disabled. She yelled at them, they denied it. I issued a legal
notice with copy to dot in registrar and demanded 10,000 INR damages
- they sent a courier with a refund immediatly.
