OT: Non-Israeli domain name registration.

[Yedidyah Bar David]

Last time I had to renew my only (.org) domain I decided to transfer it to
box.co.il, which is also a .il registrar (which I why I knew them). It was
a bit more expensive than the cheapest options abroad, but the ability to
pay in NIS with an Israeli (-only) credit card, and be able to talk with
someone over a phone, in Hebrew, made it, for me. The transfer and renew
was just fine (although did take some time and work, also because I had to
ask the previous registrar to allow transfer but also because they had some
mistakes etc.). Didn't hear from them since then, and do not expect to hear
- the yearly "update your details at icann" emails include links to "
name-services.com", and the last one was also sent From: there. They are a
sub-registrar of enom.com, which IIUC is a rather large registrar that only
has sub- ones, does not work with end customers directly.

Best regards,
