    I wonder where one can complain about a domain registrar who is just trying to misguide you or cheat you one or more ways.

    thanks,
    ASHISH THAKKAR

    If I'm having a problem with my registrar, should I report it to ICANN?

    If you have a problem with one of the registrars, you should first try to resolve it with that registrar.

    If you cannot resolve your complaint with the registrar, you should address it to private-sector agencies involved in addressing customer complaints or governmental consumer-protection agencies. The appropriate agency will vary depending on the jurisdiction of the registrar and the customer.

    All registrars with direct access to the .aero, .biz, .com, .coop, .info, .museum, .name, .net, ,.org, and .pro registries are accredited for this purpose by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN). ICANN does not resolve individual customer complaints. ICANN is a technical-coordination body. Its primary objective is to coordinate the Internet's system of assigned names and numbers to promote stable operation.

    Although ICANN's limited technical mission does not include resolving individual customer-service complaints, ICANN does monitor such complaints to discern trends. If you would like to submit a complaint about a registrar for ICANN's records, please use the Registrar Problem Report Form located at the InterNIC website. As a courtesy, ICANN will forward your complaint to the registrar for review and further handling. (Please note that there is no guarantee that the registrar will reply.)

    That's it, depending upon your domain extension because *.uk domain name registrars should be reported to Nominet, info domain with Afilias, etc. etc. :rolleyes:

    Dear Mrs/Miss Lynn ,

    First the all I am very happy for the client who can resolve this issue so
    There were being five e-mails sent due to issue with clients domain
    austro-pro.com while our company is being targeted by two other clients
    which registered domain through us with onlinenic.com sending spam and
    hacking server .

    but! regarding the austro-pro.com
    all communication between us and clients are being sent to your company as
    appear on below within dates 19/22 jun/2010 expect that I called client by
    myself three times but we have not received any payment !

    The client paid us to renew the domain on 22/jun/2010 and I tried to renew
    on 12:30 am 23/jun not even one day past however! I informed the
    onlinic.com by e-mail and we have got from onlinenic.com that we have sent
    several e-mail reminder to client to renew but got no payment , today I
    found within a few hours after he paid us to renew his domain that you
    removed the domain access from our account to another reseller and it was
    being renewed !

    Looking to all e-mails shows the timely manner of our company's action !(
    5 -mails on two days )
    How could anyone renew a domain without getting paid ?
    How many hours passed since he paid and you removed teh domain from our
    account ? not even one day !
    I am happy for him that he can get his site but! your action to renew the
    domain is not only against our contract but also the breach of Domain name
    policy regarding domain payment fees !

    Uniform Domain Name Policy ( fees ) !

    With this regard and since I have serious concern now that your company
    may try to renew even the domain that cause spam and hack our server I
    will try to contact ICANN and Internic to inform them as well as to inform
    my clients about this issue in advance and few other webmasters .
    list of those domains and documentation regarding spam and hack provided
    to your support online chat !
