    I would like to see registrars with lack of enforcement to correct whois information be considered to breach of contract, not only the ones that don’t pay the fees to them. it seems ICANN is only here to collect money

    Dotted Ventures Inc have now been de-accredited, and all domains managed by IANA#833 have been migrated to Astutium.com under the RegTransition process.

    @Jose

    The reasons for removing an accreditation are not just fees (although thats a common one when a registrar is struggling) – several have recently been removed due to fail to comply with other policies such as the data-escrow etc

    If you have an issue regarding WHOIS there is a proper procedure for reporting that and those are forwarded onto registrars for action.
