Dear all, Here are responses to the two questions/requests that came up in the call last week from the WG: On whether there has been any issues involving P/P registrations due to bulk transfers done as part of a registrar¹s de-accreditation process ­ none that we know of as requiring further action. Compliance has received and resolved complaints about a registrant being unable to reach her registrar, or who thinks her domain has been hijacked - these were due to the registrant being unaware of the bulk transfer. Compliance has also received and resolved complaints about transfer pricing issues with the new registrar. On whether ICANN ³guarantees² that a registrant whose domain is bulk transferred will enjoy the same terms with the gaining registrar ­ although in evaluating a bulk transfer to a potential gaining registrar ICANN reviews many different aspects of a registrar¹s operations, we do not ³guarantee² this. We hope this helps. Thanks and cheers Mary Mary Wong Senior Policy Director Internet Corporation for Assigned Names & Numbers (ICANN) Telephone: +1 603 574 4892 Email: mary.wong@icann.org
