 I bought a domain name (textile.net) in 1998 and 
have kept it current.  On 3/18/02,  "Whois" confirmed this 
and showed an expiration date of Aug. 14, 2003. Sometime between 3/19/02 and 10/30/02, 
 Verisign deleted and resold the name.  When I learned of this 
(10/30/020) by accident I immediately contacted Verisign and filed a complaint 
(1-1sfe87). However,  as of today they are unwilling 
to let me speak with anyone and have not given me any 
information. I am an individual, not a corporation who employ a 
staff of lawyers.  Lawyers, who would have had an 
injunction against Verisign by now to protect this valuable domain 
name.  Are there penalties in place to protect the average citizen from 
going thru an ordeal similar to what I am now experiencing?  
  The domain name in question is extremely valuable, 
but this should not matter.  Sander Belkin 2870 Judith Drive  Bellmore, NY 11710 |
