The frustrating thing for me was getting beyond the people whose main job seems to be "keeping you in the dark". Wednesday, I got this message:
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Lloyd, I left a message with John earlier this morning. AIT disagrees with PIR's assessment of the situation. The Registry claims to have received a notice from us asking that several hundred domains be deleted. That's not how AIT systems work; deletions are a manual process that cannot be executed en masse. I realize this does nothing to alleviate your issue, but I want you to have an understanding of what's going on. We have asked the Registry to restore the affected domains, but it refuses to admit wrongdoing and insists on restoration fees before doing so. Our fallback position is to register secondary domains that point to the main website so affected customers get relief. <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Once they finally admitted that there was a money issue, I was able to get through to them that we *needed* to get the domain online and we could pay a fee to accomplish that. So we were left in limbo while they argued over who was responsible for footing the repair bill.
