Rodney,

Good to see that you updated your website today. Strange that you were
stating that DDNS were a Registrar.

But there is still this page  http://www.ddns.com.au  that advertises:

<<
NEWS NEWS NEWS

DDNS Are A Provisionally Accredited auDA Registrar

Please note our reseller pricing is negotiated between our reseller manager
and our resellers on a one to one basis. This allows for tailored pricing to
suit different needs

Maybe I am wrong, but isn't it specified in the Registrar's Agreement that
one must not advertise themselves as a
"Provisionally Accredited auDA Registrar"  ?

Oh and can a domain reseller have domain resellers ? I think not.

As a reseller you must provide customer support to your clients that's Auda
policy. Don't want to take call don't resell domain names

We only send out advertising flyers that cannot possibly be termed renewal
notices they explain very carefully that it is a offer and they need not
take any action to renew with us you have no right what so ever to stop a
genuine commercial activity.

We both support and conduct ourselves according to the COC which I might add
has not even become public yet. We are in contact with Auda on a regular
basis with regard to policy matters and making sure we are within policy
guidelines.

Absolute rubbish...   Why don't you get involved in Auda from a policy
perspective and see how things really work there are no favors as you allude
to.
