Hi all,
I sold a domain a few weeks back. Buyer's happy as the domain works for him (NS changed) and I'm mostly happy as I've been paid.
Only problem is the WHOIS still shows my name. Buyer reckons he's done his bit by pressing the right buttons on his 1&1 control panel, and that he's done this a zillion times before etc etc.
However, I called Nominet and they said the ONLY way to get the WHOIS to update is to fill out a transfer form and post it to Nominet with signed confirmatory letters and £11.75.
Buyer disagrees, reckons Nominet are just poking there nose in where it's not needed, and that it'll just take "time" to update.
What do we think?
I'm not convinced, I mean so far all I've done is change the tag to 1&1. At no point have I explicitly agreed to transferring ownership of the domain. I gather I'm supposed to click a link in an e-mail but it never came.
Advice much appreciated,
Rob
