Nominet's Data quality team contacted me a few days ago saying they had been unable to verify the address on two of my domains. (I'm pretty sure the domains had been reported to them). Whoever/Whatever it was had managed to get Nominet's attention because I had the word Bridgend written twice in the whois, once for city and once for county...unbelievable! When I emailed back and asked was this actually the reason, they confirmed it!
As if 123-reg and their renewal bug wasn't enough for me to worry about now I have Nominet to add to that too.
This was the email:

I think that's a little OTT!
