All postings here are my own opinion. YMMV. May shrink in hot water. Do not expose to UV. May contain traces of nuts. With added riboflavin!


 

List of all DNC authorised registrars is available with .nz domain name pricing and other details. Please be advised that the list is out of date but it will be updated in future.

Domainz emails other registrars clients
Thanks to a tipoff from a reader I was told to 'check out iSERVE's latest newsletter... you will find it interesting'. 

The newsletter that was released in the last few days has an interesting 'late breaking news' section. According to iSERVE they state the following:

"It was brought to our attention earlier today that an e-mail has been sent by Domainz to some of their previous clients who previously had their Domain Name under the Domainz Registrar.

The e-mail states that your Domain Name is at risk of cancellation if you do not pay an outstanding amount to them by the 24th March, and provides a link for you to click on to make a credit card payment."

This is a HUGE breach of the .nz policies for two reasons:
  1. Registrars shall NEVER email other registrars clients
  2. You can not cancel a domain name with a different registrar
Do Domainz even understand they do not have the registry anymore?
Do Domainz understand they can't do whatever the hell they want like they used too?

I wonder if Domainz was the registrar that was refusing to release UDAI's without payment being settled first that was mentioned in the last DNC newsletter.
