Buying a name from a clueless?

boxerdog · 17-12-2011, 10:58:59 AM

I am in the middle of buying a name but the seller has never heard of Nominet and has no clue as how to transfer the name to me

Can anyone give me the simplest directions to pass on to him?

Cheers

It is explained quite clearly on the Nominet site

http://www.nominet.org.uk/registrant...tain/transfer/

Is it possible to ask him to make a temporary password for his Nominet account and let you log in and do the transfer for him ?

If they have more than 1 domain this may give access to all domains.

Most joe bloggs sellers I buy from don't have a clue about nominet but a quick link to the nominet site normally does the trick
