Thus spake Omar Thameen (omar@clifford.inch.com): [snip] > Some additional criteria: > - I'd need one that's end-user oriented, so places like bulkregister.com > wouldn't fit the bill. > - I'd also like to use a US-based company for this (no offense to non-US > folks, but if something goes wrong, I want to raise a ruckus on the > phone in English :-) A fairly major beef I have with the profusion of network registries is the lack of a centralized whois database. Most of the new ones don't use the standard NIC handles that have been around for ages :-( Having said that, I've used Click 'n Go a couple of times with good success. http://www.clickngo.com.au/ Their registrations are done using that Tucows backend thingie, OpenSRS (from memory). You'll note they aren't US -based, but most Australians speak English reasonably well :-) I've only ever contacted them by email, and always received a response within 20mins.
