having unlocked the domain at their end and posted it as "pending transfer", they now refuse to answer any DNS queries despite still being authoritative for that domain. That domain has fallen off the edge of a cliff and may as well not exist. Their reponse to my complaint so far is "thank you for your patience".
If you really want the domain back and you are a contact on the domain record then I think you can contact the registrar and get it sorted.
We had a slightly worse problem with a customer who had a domain with Hostlogical but with it all in Hostlogical's name. Hostlogical were purchased and promptly went tits up, nobody was responding to the domain contacts and it was left pointing where their hosting used to be. In this case the only way we could settle was via the domain mitigation route which is expensive and time consuming...a pity since this domain was printed as a web and email address on marketing literature and business cards etc.
Not fun
Guess who loses my business.

The text file for RFC 854 contains exactly 854 lines. Do you think there is any cosmic significance in this?
