Title: Please help me, Trying to REGISTER

---

Dear ICANN,

Please help me.  I registered my new domain name: "www.funface.com" with one of your registrars: "register.com".  After submitting countless emails and countless information, "register.com" refuses to activate (or release) my account!!!  I have paid, and payment was accepted.  I have submitted all of my information, over and over again.  I've had it!  What is the problem with them?  I had previously registered a domain name with "Network Solutions", that entire operation took 10 minutes!  With Register.com   it has been over a week!!  Register.com does not answer it's phones, nor have they responded to my emails, except for the email they've sent me below (please read).  This email they sent me is ludicrous!  They already have every bit of information they possibly could have on me, what more do they want, ablood sample????Is this a legitimate registrar, or have I been swindled out of $70 from a scam operation?   I have no more time for this nonsense, PLEASE, Please, help me release/activate my domain name.

Gratefully Yours,
Preston Lindsay
