Registrars and their renewal notices

[Anthony Ng]

How come some registrars (like RegisterFly and Dotster) seem not to update their own database and keep sending renewal notices for domain names that are clearly no longer with them?

What if some registrants accidentally/mistakenly "renew" these transferred-away domains with them AGAIN? Does it mean that it constitutes a registrar transfer request?

Good question, Enom does this a lot with my acct what with about 20 names in my acct which were in actuality transfered away from Enom ages ago, as long as last yr but Enom still claims they are there and wants me to renew them. What idiots these registrars are who do that and there are others in addition to Enom, including NetSol and Dotster just to name 2 I deal with on this odd issue. The constant renewal notices cause me much lost time and effort in checking to be certain the names are not really there.
