Domain name renewal paper documents?

I've heard there a plan for Nominet to scrap the paper 'pro forma' invoices too, which is good news as we are now in an age where email reminders and online renewals alone should be used, saving on such a needless waste of unrenewable energy and all those poor trees!

I agree with what you're saying, however I can see this leading to more people losing their domains by unintentionally letting it expire. Particurally when they don't inform people of their email address change etc...

Anyone who loses their name due to incorrect details has broken the T&C's, so should expect to lose it.

Tell that to an SME.

If they choose not to read the T&C's or don't comply with them, then why should they expect to keep their name?
