Hi Group,

Can anyone give me any advice. Heres the story so far..

I purchased 2 domains www.procreationmusic.com & .co.uk from a company called www.bestpricenames.co.uk . This company has since disapeared.

From the off as soon as they took my cash the problems started. firstly no email forwarding and eventually no ftp access or anything else for that matter.

When I tried to track down the company and the name servers suprise suprise who do you think they were a reseller for ?

Yes had to be, FASTHOSTS.

Ive tried contacting everyone I can think of to get back control over the domains but with no luck. I phoned FASTHOSTS and spoke to someone who I ended up wanting to punch. Their answer was to just repeat over & over "is there anything else we can help you with ?"

Maybe all the people who have had problems and lost money & business because of FASTHOSTS should meet up and go down to their place with a load of magnets & wire cutters and see what they got to say then.

My question now is...

WHAT CAN I DO TO GET MY DOMAINS BACK ?

They are regestered with my clients details who is, by now pretty fed up of the situation as he has advertised his domains on albums that are now released.

I have various places that would accept the transfer of the domains to their servers but cant get them released.

Any help much appreciated

cheers

Did you have the domains transfered to your name or yuor clients? If not, you didn't buy them.

If you did, email the registrar and have them switch the nameservers.


In fact, depending on your documentation, you might have enough if you have in writing from them and a credit card bill to get it switched for you.
