Just thought it was interesting to point out that people holding some of the best (and most valuable) .infos have NOT had to pay a renewal fee for years, and the registry says "may not have to pay for 5 or more years into the future". Plenty of them out there just like Mortgages.info
These tier 1 infos were taken with false sunrise claims back in the landrush, are known as fraudulent by the registry, and are continually renewed for free. The crooks continue to have the full use of them to display whatever.
When questioned about the theft, some of these people readily admit to the action. When the registry (Afilias) is questioned about it, and about their inaction over the years in the face of it, they respond that they "don't handle registrant issues, as they only work for the registrars". In fact the only phone lines provided to the registry "are provided only for the use of the registrars".
Registrars holding the registrations do NOT respond to emails. Nor does ICANNt for that matter. Who is it that represents the registrants (domainers) in this industry we fund again?
