Question for any domain guru's. Once upon a time i helped a guy setup his website. I registered the site through namecheap.com and have since pushed the ownership of the domain to the respectful owner. Now, the owner has left the contact information on the domain with my information - thus being obsolete.

Now i've got some monkey's from another company that he's working with calling me and asking me to change the information. I've informed them i have no affiliation with the domain other then the obsolete contact information. I've told him he can change the information by using NameCheap's service - and he says that won't matter. What am i missing? All of the 'official' contact information on the domain is held by NameCheap, correct?

These guys are buggin the $hit out of me.

Thanks

"he says that won't matter" ... I'm not sure what they mean by that. It matters because you're no longer handling the contact info. The owner of the site can get in there through namecheap's service and do it himself. It's not like you're keeping his namecheap login from him (or these "monkeys"), are you ? Then you have nothing further to provide them.

Tried - the dude INSISTS that if he changes the information on NameCheap it will do nothing for him.

The system will do nothing for him ? It's a web application... he (or anyone who can login) changes it, it gets reflected, everyone is happy. Unless there is some kind of address change verification that goes to you, I have no clue what the guy is talking about. Ask him to explain in further detail.

Exactly. The owner has his own seperate NameCheap login so he control's his domain information independently from me. I have nothing for this guy.
