23 December 2009
ICANN has authorized a bulk transfer of OOO Russian Registrar's and BP Holdings Group Inc.'s (dba IS.COM) gTLD domain names to Name.com LLC, due to compliance actions taken by ICANN that resulted in the de-accreditation of two registrars: OOO Russian Registrar and BP Holdings Group Inc.
The gTLD registries that have registered OOO Russian Registrar's and BP Holdings Group Inc.'s domain names have taken steps to effect the bulk transfers. Former registrant-customers of OOO Russian Registrar and BP Holdings Group Inc. should soon receive notices of the transfer from Name.com LLC. Customer questions about the transfer should be directed to Name.com LLC. Contact and additional information about this bulk transfer of OOO Russian Registrar's and BP Holdings Group Inc.'s domain names are provided below.
FAQs
Q. Why were these transfers authorized by ICANN?
A. OOO Russian Registrar's Registrar Accreditation Agreement (RAA) was terminated by ICANN because of OOO Russian Registrar's failure to comply with the requirements of the RAA.
