Seeking advice: Wix stolen my .com domain

By wixcom 1 min read 0 views 0 comments

I transferred .com domain to wix from another domain registrar, paid for transfer and additional year of domain from my bank card, they blocked account, requested passport and bank card photo via email, and after I provided them document (same legal name of admin of domain) and bank card photo they rejected to reactivate account, so I don't have access to my domain anymore and can't withdraw it to another registrar.Their final reply:"Hi there,
Thank you for reaching back out._As mentioned by my colleague, regrettably we are unable to restore the account or provide access to the domain in this case._At this time, we would advise reaching out to ICANN directly or continuing communication with ICANN in order to retrieve the domain. With this being said, I would recommend gathering your proof of ownership for the domain. This would include your registration/transfer records and any related correspondence.I understand this is not the outcome you expected and I apologize on behalf of any frustrations or inconveniences this may cause.Thank you for your patience during this process. If you happen to have any additional questions or concerns please don't hesitate to reach back out.Best…
