The ICANN Blog has reported the following information concerning the Registerfly problems.
Q. If ICANN terminated Registerfly's accreditation agreement on 31 March, why do they still claim to be accredited?
A. Registerfly decided to file an arbitration action to stall the termination. For better or worse, this is their right under the accreditation agreement. The accreditation agreement is a contract that ICANN has to follow. If we didn't follow the agreement, Registerfly could potentially continue operations as an accredited registrar indefinitely. So please be patient and understand that we are doing everything we legally can to protect registrants without jeopardizing our right to terminate Registerfly' accreditation.
Q. What will happen when Registerfly's accreditation is finally terminated?
A. There are a number of paths we could pursue, and to some extent, the one we follow will depend on the behavior of Registerfly. In the 'big picture' the process looks like this: (1) Registerfly loses its access to the registries; (2) a competent and qualified accredited registrar is selected by ICANN to receive a 'bulk transfer' of names (and underlying data) from Registerfly to it; (3) former Registerfly customers will be able to contact the new registrar to manage or transfer their names.
Q. How does the bulk transfer work?
A. ICANN has the power to approve a bulk transfer from one registrar to another. We will not do so unless the transfer is in the community interest. We have told Kevin Medina he should name a "gaining registrar" now and stop hurting his customers, but he has not done so. If Kevin does name a gaining registrar, we will only approve the transfer if it is in the community interest.
In a bulk transfer, there is no fee to the customer. However, a bulk transfer is different from a normal transfer in that it does not add a year to the registration.
Q. Why doesn't ICANN bulk transfer the names now?
A. Like it or not, Registerfly is still technically accredited, pending the outcome of our lawsuit against them or their arbitration action. Because Registerfly is accredited, we cannot initiate a bulk transfer. When Registerfly's termination is final, we will bulk transfer the names, either to a registrar suggested by Kevin Medina or one chosen by ICANN.
Q. What is the status of names that were deleted by Registerfly that are currently in RGP (redemption grace period) or PendingDelete?
A. The registries have agreed not to "drop" names that are deleted by Registerfly. In other words, the names will not be permanently deleted. Today, Registerfly could technically allow its customers to redeem names in RGP, but given its history of not being able to fund the registries, it doesn't seem like that's going to happen. (There has to be money in Registerfly's registry accounts in order to process transactions.)
Since Registerfly has failed in its obligations to its customers, we are continuing our discussions with the registries and others to ensure that customers will be able to regain control of their domain names. Unfortunately, unless Registerfly begins funding its registry accounts in earnest, we may not be able to make that happen until their accreditation agreement is finally terminated.
Q. What if my name was deleted before the registries began prohibiting deletions by Registerfly?
A. If the name is available for registration, by all means, register it.
If the name was registered by someone else, you have at least four options:
1. Work out an agreement with the current registrant.
2. Wait and see if the current registrant lets it expire.
3. File a lawsuit in court against the current registrant.
4. For cases involving "abusive registrations" (this is a narrow category, so you should proceed with caution), begin an administrative proceeding under the Uniform Domain-Name Dispute-Resolution Policy. For more details on this option, see Uniform Domain-Name Dispute-Resolution Policy Here.
If you decide to file a complaint under the UDRP, you'll need to do so via one of ICANN's four approved domain-name dispute-resolution service providers:
