[QUOTE="Tom K., post: 2349689, member: 67334"] Cell phone number and email do not stay active after death either. If a surviving family member doesn't know how to change the credit card or registrant info at the registrar then likely they are not aware that the domain is being perpetually renewed. Or the value of the domain or how to sell it, ie what to do with it. The domain is in limbo. Theoretically, Epik can sell it on their aftermarket if the owner can no longer be verified because the domain has not been passed to the surviving family member. The owner who is concerned about dying and passing on the investment to the family will ensure that a will is made with complete instructions. Perpetual renewal alone does not solve foreseeable problems. So what if the domain is forever renewed if the surviving family doesn't know it exists or how to take possession. If Epik should lose their registrar status, change ownership, or go out of business, the domain will be lost. [/QUOTE]
