Re: Internic doesn't care about valid contact information
I know what you mean, Greg. A friend of mine tried to regester a domain. He filled out the forms, mailed them in, kept the reply. What he didn't notice that even though the domain name was correct in the body of the message, the SUBJECT line of the reply from Network Solutions had the domain name misspelled. They'd dropped a letter. The registration seemed to go through just fine, but after the burp two days ago the domain now shows up with the misspelling! Not only won't Network Solutions fix the problem, they will gladly accept his registering the *correct* domain, but will not refund the payment he made back when the first domain was correctly spelled. Of course, he's got to pay AGAIN if he wants to register the correctly spelled domain, again.

At that point I'd just say "See you in small claims court." If they live anywhere outside the Washington DC area, it will cost NetSol a buttload of money to pack someone up and send them on a plane to court. It would cost much, MUCH less than that for the person to actually sue. Costs $30 in the city where I live and I get the money back if I win. If NetSol doesn't show up, bingo, you have a default judgement and can send the judgement to a collections agency. If that's what has to be done, that's what has to be done. It requires little investment on the part of the plaintiff in either time or money. -- Steve Sobol sjsobol@nacs.net (AKA support@nacs.net and abuse@nacs.net) "The world is headed for mutiny/When all we want is unity" --Creed, "One"
