Missing registrar

[hlsJeff]

I signed up for BlueHost yesterday. I went to the site where my domains are registered (pointing to my old host) so I could login in and change the DNS numbers/Domain servers to point to BlueHost.

My registrar's site is unavailable, showing the "Server not found" message for over 24 hours. This is dpdomains.com

What do you do if you cannot contact the company where your domains are registered?

Thanks
Jeff

My guess is this is what happened:
http://help.securepaynet.net/article.php?article_id=747&topic_id=220&prog_id=wildwestdomains&

You got the domain name from a reseller for Wild West Domains (which is part of GoDaddy).

Doesnt WWD do the domain registrations for bluehost. My domain is listed as a wild west domain in the who is.

Looks like this is the site for that company:

Doesnt WWD do the domain registrations for bluehost. My domain is listed as a wild west domain in the who is.WWD probably has hundreds or thousands of resellers.

By the way from what I can see, This Company is one of those GoDaddy resellers, and on top of that they don’t really look like the greatest reseller. I suggest switching to a different registrar.

(By the way WWD is the sister company for GoDaddy)

OMG that will be so kewl. Wow godaddy are idiots. They didnt ofer customer support to a 70k a month company. Wow! You would think they could at least assign one dedicated customer service rep. Anyways I will be happy when they set up their own registrar. If the domains are cheaper than this ((which is already pretty cheap)) i will be in love with bluehost. People will be signing up to bluehost just for the cheap domains. Think of how well bluehost will do.
