Telnic and the Dot Tel

The UK domain registry Telnic is deeply in a crisis, and within the gray area between good business practices and econmic crime.

The Telnic Management (Dot-Tel-domain) appears to have only speculated on short-term profits, and is prepared to only watch the fate of their company, without taking any appropiate action. For years, the strategy was, to do only the most minimal effort: Small input, hoping for a big output. So, almost no investment or expenditure.

Far more serious, however, was, and is the Internet domain registrar Webnames.ca:
This company is most likely eligible for a takeover of the company Telnic. It was also the company Webnames.ca, which produced the famous promotional video "Love Train". Telnic was not trying to ensure the accuracy of false laurels, and let himself virtually be decorated with "false feathers". It was always said, that the video was produced by Telnic, which simply is not true.

The Telnic knit pattern of its business does not look much different than from Raiders, and therefore falls into the same category of the gray range, close to economic crime.

In mid-June, was the deputy director Fabien Chalandon Telnic dismissed against a bail of 75,000 € from prison. Accused for fraud and breach of the existing statutory law in the gambling business.

Fabien Chalandon:

Telnic Assistant Director, tricky and dubious adviser to a number of renowned companies.
Was recently for two weeks in detention, in a Parisian prison, and was released on free foot, after paying a hefty bail of 75,000 €. Mr Chalandon is still under the supervision of the court and other competent authorities. Is this how the face of a "White Collar Criminal" looks like?

The duo Fabien Chalandon / Khashayar Mahdavi, have a strong alliance: both families (Chalandon-Mahdavi) are married with each other. And both together previously owned another company, before forming the Telnic. So you see how thick the "felt" is ...

Time for Telnic (or an acquisition company) to make clean, and the first time, to seriously worry about the business and the laid-down customers.
The hull in silence, the Registry, its chronic passivity, and the withdrawal of a substantial fraction of the dot-tel community, do not seem to point to anything good.
Minimalism ends at Twitter ... before all activity ceases altogether to.
And a forceps delivery to be stillborn (Dot-Tel-domain with a retro look).

Even so, the. Tel is not dead yet, and will survive all indebted wohlmöglich crises, and live on. And ultimately serve their intended purposes: Namely a cheap and simple communication aid for the community, and for everyone. The "Volkswagen" of mobile communication.
VW had also survived the war, and was it wasn't until after the war, to become the "car for the people", as long before propagated.

Firstly comes disaster and chaos, because some people sense opportunity to make a quick profit ..., and hinder a good product to make fast progress.
The monitary system is at first destructive to a great extent, until it is good, and can perhaps serve for a good purpose.
The tactics of Telnic, are to conceal, to hide, withdraw, and when asked for a statement, to not answer, and to avoid confrontations.

The censorship is already done by Telnic Forum Moderator, who withholds information from the other forum visitors.
Telnic had always responded to issues clumsily. Not alt all professional. A company that acts so often amateurish, has a serious problem. And the recruitment of a new marketing director, who hasn't said a word, till now, probalbly won't be able to compensate for all the failures that Telnic produced up and till now.
Like all big businesse, Telnic thinks, that they are too big to fail...

Instead of beeing straight foreward, and informing the public about the state of things, the continue to just constantly patronize, controlle, deceive, ignore and censor it's community members.
The Dot-Tel retro look, and the business practices of the Telnic, remind me of the old Soviet era, and have nothing to do with contemporary design, or management.
Knowing well, Telnics pace and work atitude, I doubt, they can easily catch up the deficits, as well as with the competitors. If you will: Telnic is somehow stuck, and unteachable.

Telnic seems to have no one who has the right experience in running a company: it consists entirely of directors, of which some, mere beneficiaries are, and nothing to contribute to the company.
It is now clear to me, why so many former dot-Tel-holders refused to renew their domains.

I, for my part, should now let loose, and just watch what is going on, with the dot-tel domain, and with the .Tel registry.
