When a user gets a domain name they get a unique key called a UDAI (Unique Domain Authentication ID) which needs to be quoted to allow a new registrar to take over handling a domain.
How impractical would it be to use a similar system to the Electricity Retail industry ? We transferred to a new provider, Nova Energy actually, it was a cold visit rather than a call but we did have to sign an agreement, which we had the opportunity to read. So there is no way that I could say we didn't know what was happening and had not given our permission. IMHO, a verbal 'agreement' in a phone call from a marketing call centre is too open to abuse. It should be followed up with some other form of authorisation. -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Glen Eustace GodZone Internet Services, a division of AGRE Enterprises Ltd.
