David 01-09-2006, 04:08 AM how can i prove to enom they where my domains ? Based on the information you provide in your WHOIS details. That's how you prove the ownership of any domain. parabolax 01-09-2006, 04:57 AM Domain names are registered in *your* name (for the most part) and registrars pretty much "host" your registration. They can go under and you will still own your domain names.. dmaven 01-09-2006, 02:37 PM They would just go back to enom.com who is the registrar of the domain name. Enom would assign the names to a different reseller or just give you direct access.

The registrants details are surely not available to enom. dmaven 01-09-2006, 04:26 PM If the domains are in the whois protect scheme at namecheap I`m wondering how that would affect regaining of control? The registrants details are surely not available to enom. Very good point. You would need to show purchase information such as payment receipt or screen capture of your account.

The registrants details are surely not available to enom. All registrars keep domain registration data internally. Privacy services are mostly for "cosmetic purposes", but they need to keep the actual info in case sh** hits the fan. If the registrar lost that data, it's unbelievable and irresponsible... dmaven 01-10-2006, 11:07 AM All registrars keep domain registration data internally.

Agreed Dave, in this case it would be the reseller who has the info. Enom would not have access to the real registrant information |
