Nominet transfer problems

[retired_member16]

I today have transferred a domain on behalf of a 3rd party to a company who wished to purchase it.

I have not been asked for the 3rd party ID.
I have not received an email confirming that the domain has been transferred
I have not received any emails confirming the transfer for the 30+ domains I have sold in the past 2 weeks.

My email listed with Nominet is ok. Anyone else seeing a lack of security/lack of emails at the moment?

Yep its very lack.. ive had a couple of transfer go through without asking for ID. Even though I also state on my covering letter that I will fwd Id when they request it.

Yep done about 10 transfers since new scheme has come into place and I have not had to add id - getting all nominet emails request, transfers etc fine as well

So why is this happening?

ID is the cornerstone of the process, or at least it was.

I had an email from Nominet saying they needed ID from me. Wonder why it is inconsistent.

I had one few weeks back where they said "its ok we where able to use the ID from another transfer you did".

Classic. Absolutely classic.

I've done an outgoing and an incoming transfer in the last week and wasn't asked for any ID for either.

To be fair though, Nominet can't win. Making a sweeping generalisation: when they first started asking for ID everyone was complaining. Now you don't get asked and you're complaining. :mrgreen:

I'm resting my complaints pen ready for when the results of the DRS review are "floated"...
