Yes seriously, you should take your domains away and run. We don't need another registerly.

The guy probably does some shady stuff that other registrars would shut him down for.

I used Estdomains, it was very easy and cheap. I dont want to save anybody, but I would like to have the same conditions at some other registrar. I need: the same prices, russian support and Webmoney payments. That's why I used Estdomains, and many of my collegues too. Can any other registrar propose me the same?

I am against the closure Estdomains.com. ICANN did not find conclusive evidence. Their goal was to close the registrar at any cost. This can be regarded as unfair competition

There are more 400 registrars-interceptors. Another registrars are not interest for many people.

Is bad idea stay with Estdomains.

Is bad idea stay with Estdomains.

Why?
I never have problems with them. But I have problems with godaddy.com refund for unsuccessful registration, and their non-comfortable interface. I have problems with dynadot.com(also with refund), eurodns, Directi...

Now I use moniker.com for most domains.

Although I have no doubt the OP has something to do with the running of EstDomains, I believe there is no reason for them to be shut without conclusive evidence. The matter of fact is that many members here hold a lot of names at EstDomains and, as a result, them remaining a registrar would result in much less problems for domainers themselves.

One of the worst registries I have ever dealt with.

I have no domains with Estdomains, never hadn`t any with them either. I heard that some cybercriminals used them as domain registrar, but is that main reason why they are losing its accreditation? Sorry, but to me it smells as a “political” process. Owner of Estdomains, Mr. Vladimir Tsatsin is accused for financial malversation (money laundering). OK, prove that and put him in a jail, but why ICANN taking Estomains accreditation? Is it the sentence against Mr. Vladimir Tsatsin (if yes, what law is that??)

If ICANN takes care so much about online safety and security will it take same measures against other domain registrars too? (e.g. dn registrars from this link)

Here is comment form McAfee blog regarding Estdomains:

… One small step for ICANN …

I never thought I’d see the day!

ICANN found it’s dentures down the back of the sofa and taken a bite out of the criminals domain registration empire. ESTDomains will no longer be a registrar as of Nov 12th.

So I’ve got a question… Who’s got the balls to take on ESTDomains problems “customers” ?

“ICANN Seeks Expressions of Interest from Registrars to Receive Bulk Transfer of Names from De-Accredited Registrar EstDomains”

I recently presented at APWG to encourage the anti-phishing community that registrars and registries can actually act rather than pleading innocence or the classic “our hands are tied” type excuses. In the case of fast-flux they are probably the only ones that can help in fact. I encouraged participants to point out that registrars and registries are guilty of acting illegally in many jurisdictions by facilitating illegal or infectious sites.

The general stance was that if Directi can clean them out then so can anyone else.
I pointed out that between 2 registrars (EST and Klik/Vivids) about $1.5M of revenue had taken place with Directi (who gives a healthy proportion of it to Verisign Etc…). I concluded with a slide to motivate participants to “Hug a Registrar” and I implore our readers to help out too. Anyone scoring over 30% on this uribl page is a prime candidate for advocates in the community to reach out and “help”.

So here is my top 5 for today:
#1 Moniker - Infested with spammers and pirated software sites. (MSOffice isn’t €79.95 delivered in a zip file)
#2 XIN NET - This is where the Pill spammers moved to and have given the .cn TLD a bad name.
#3 35 Tech & OnlineNic - Same as above but with more variety in pill sites and some casinos thrown in too.
#4 Planet Online - (Surprised to see them so high) Home of the unique URL “snowshoe” spammers ? almost legit ? The real world doesn’t care for their bulk and whois protected domains (via directi’s Logicboxes), or fake contacts.
#5 Dynamic Dolphin - Owned by Scott Ricter’s Media Breakaway, formerly bankrupted OptinRealBig . MS won cases against him in New York in 2005. This accreditation is probably against ICANN’s policy. These days they generally annoy via social networks.
#Bonus - *.directNIC

This is almost 2 years too late and took far too much media attention to shake their tree. The worst of the criminals left EST for other registrars after the “defecation meets the rotary oscillator” in August, but never the less, that (so I’m told) this is quick for ICANN

Hip Hip…

Do you use any of these 5 dn registrars? I know that most of you use and swear in one of them

+1
It's a double standards IMHO
It is not rightly!

 

[BigSotong.com]

it make no difference to me. IMO, there are just too many registrars around. ICANN should limit the no. of registrar to 100 to ensure the Top 100 are better managed.

ICANN can then closely monitor these 100 registrars to ensure best practice. So, good that Estdomain is gone...hope more will follow so.......

Ive only ever heard bad things about them Estdomains, good ridance i say......... NEXT.
