The ENUM Registrar Agreement sets out certain responsibilities for ENUM registrars. If you believe a registrar is in breach of this agreement then we may be able to help you. This page outlines how you can complain to us about the actions of an ENUM registrar. If your complaint is about the service provided directly by Nominet, you should refer to the
Nominet complaints procedure.
How do I complain about an ENUM Registrar not complying with the ENUM Registrar Agreement? We would advise you firstly to contact the registrar direct and ask them to resolve the situation. If you do not receive a satisfactory response, you can submit a complaint to our Registrar Services team. We will ask for your permission to pass on the information that you have supplied to the registrar in question. We will then investigate the situation and respond to you with our findings. We may ask you to sign a declaration that the information you have supplied is accurate. All complaints should be made to the Registrar Services Department.
