Dear Valued Customer,

As you may be aware, ICANN recently imposed a new fee of $.20 for each domain registered then deleted within the four day grace period. As a result, the rate for domains returned during the four day grace period has increased by $.20 per domain effective July 1, 2008.

Thank you for your continued business.

Anyone know when the new rule / .20 cent fee becomes active?

Changed story to say “moved a step further to changing”, as 2w pointed out everything is not signed, sealed, and delivered.

@ 2w – yes and no, the way I understand it…I’ve looked into it. It looks like the board approved the rule blocking refunds for domain names over 50 or 10% in a given month, which would seem to be even more costly than CADNA suggests. But the budget, which includes the fee rule, still needs to be approved, so you’re right.
