12160.info is back!

Our domain name hosting company deleted our account for terms of service violations.

I can add no other info, no emails have been returned seeking answers.

I can say we will get the name back in a few days and all will be back to normal :)

If I'm having a problem with my registrar, should I report it to ICANN?

If you have a problem with one of the registrars, you should first try to resolve it with that registrar.

If you cannot resolve your complaint with the registrar, you should address it to private-sector agencies involved in addressing customer complaints or governmental consumer-protection agencies. The appropriate agency will vary depending on the jurisdiction of the registrar and the customer.

All registrars with direct access to the .aero, .biz, .com, .coop, .info, .museum, .name, .net, ,.org, and .pro registries are accredited for this purpose by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN). ICANN does not resolve individual customer complaints. ICANN is a technical-coordination body. Its primary objective is to coordinate the Internet's system of assigned names and numbers to promote stable operation.

Although ICANN's limited technical mission does not include resolving individual customer-service complaints, ICANN does monitor such complaints to discern trends. If you would like to submit a complaint about a registrar for ICANN's records, please use the Registrar Problem Report Form located at the InterNIC website. As a courtesy, ICANN will forward your complaint to the registrar for review and further handling. (Please note that there is no guarantee that the registrar will reply.)

Find registrar contact details in the Accredited Registrar Directory
Submit a registrar complaint through the Registrar Problem Report Form

My registrar won't let me transfer my domain, what do I do?

If you're having trouble transferring your domain from one registrar to another, you should contact the registrar you want to transfer to for assistance. If your preferred registrar is having any trouble processing your transfer, your registrar can obtain assistance from ICANN or the registry operator as appropriate.

Registrars are not permitted to deny transfer requests arbitrarily. ICANN has no policy that permits or requires registrars to deny outgoing transfer requests solely because the registration is within X number of days before expiration. In any case where a "losing" registrar does deny a transfer request, it is required to provide the "gaining" registrar with a notice of the denial and a specific reason for the denial.

For your reference, the "Policy on Transfer of Sponsorship of Registrations Between Registrars" is set forth in Exhibit B to the Registry-Registrar Agreement. For details on updates to ICANN's transfer policies, please refer to a href="http://www.icann.org/transfers/">http://www.icann.org/transfers/>.

Funny that this all happened when many fileshare/torrent/political sites were down all at once. I thought at first it was my browser that was phooked but.......... No....... Most sites were down for about 24 hours or so.

Try using Dyn DNS service or No-IP service. They have been working great on my site http://oathkeepers.from-fl.com and about 20 others.

Have they responded yet? I mean is that against the policy that you agreed to. If it is not to in depth or giving to much information, that you are not allowed, have they told you what it was that we have done to violate terms of service? Were we even givin a warning of any kind? Sry in advance if you think I am trying to be nosy, just concerned and curious about our situation.
