Hi domainers,
I am in dire need of legal advice/assistance.
Letâs say that I together and a partner operate an account with a certain registrar. Then the registrar receives a complaint from a third party that one of my domains is in contravention of cybersquatting rules. Then he threatens to cancel all my names plus my account for creating "confusion".
1. Do you think that the registrar in question is right to suspend the domain in question (cybersquatting) plus all the other names registered under my account?
2. Aware of TM issues, do you think that a single or several names warrants a registrar the right to not to surpress a client's account but also cance all your names registered with her?
3. How would you approach the whole matter given that you have been given 10 days to raise any complaints failure to which the registrar threatens she would suppress your account completely?
To be fair I would like to convince the registrar at least not to effect her threat to cancel my account whose consequence will be killing all my registered domains.
Please feel free to post any general comments here however, if you are willing to assist me kindly PM and I will provide you with details plus the email that I have received from the registrarâs legal counsel.
Thank you very much for your willingness to offer your experiences and advice to me.
NB: At this stage until need be I am not going to publicly disclose here the name of the prominent registrar in question but I would to anyone interested thru a PM.
