[GNSO-TPR] Registrar charging fees given out the TAC and transfer-out

[Steinar Grøtterød]

Dear all,

I have recently been informed that some registrars charge a fee for issuing a TAC to the Registered Name Holder. The examples given to me is a fee of USD 250(!) for sending a TAC to the RNH.

I have also been given examples of registrar charging for accepting a transfer out, purely for the «job» that has to be done.

My question is whether this (IMHO) unfriendly practices should be discussed in our working group and (maybe) incorporated in the new Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy.

Regards,
