My NSI story is probably typical so here is just a quick
summary:
1. I have been unable to push my domain registration through
NSI for over 3 months now. My only "achievement" has been that
my requested domain name (which is the name of my company) has been
"reserved" by NSI (their database correctly shows me as the owner) and
they wouldn't release it so that I cannot try to register it with
register.com
2. NSI have charged my credit card twice (!!), $70 each time,
without providing service (even once :-)
It is not a terrible exaggeration to say that they have stolen
my money and my company name.
I have given them plenty of time and encouragment to reply to
my grievances but no answer ever came. Obviously their actions are
unethical but, on top of that, double charging credit cards constitutes a
fraud. Well, they don't even bother defending that
accusation.
I am wondering if there is an Internet group or perhaps a
class action against NSI going in the US so that NSI "$70" victims
like myself can join. Is there any practical, legal avenue ? I will
pursue the credit card fraud issue with my bank but is there anything I can do
at all to reclaim my domain name ?
