Domain names are getting stolen but Name.com is efficient with their return.
When it comes down to recovering stolen domain names, GoDaddy – the #1 domain registrar in the world – and Register.com take their sweet time to act upon legitimate complaints.
All that while a relative newcomer to the domain industry, Name.com, seems to set the paradigm with regards to acting swiftly and efficiently in order to return stolen domains to their owner.
This has been the case, time and again.
Sometimes, the domain owner who loses a domain to a thief is distraught and has no idea how to act to recover their asset.
In particular, Register.com took six months to return the domain AV.net to its legitimate owner, who had to provide excessive paperwork and go through a maze of actions.
In a thread over at Web Hosting Talk about stolen domains, the thread starter emphasizes just that: Name.com is fast on the job of working with the legitimate owner, once they acknowledge that a domain is stolen:
“Not much to update, but Godaddy told me to wait again while they working with Register.Com, I am wondering if Godaddy and Register.Com even have some kind of agreement for domain transfer dispute like this!? I also emailed Tom Lam (Executive Escalations Manager) from Register.com, but they told me to contract Godaddy instead.”
It’s sad seeing how large domain registrars play a game of ping-pong with eachother!
