If you have a dispute involving the requested transfer of a domain name from one registrar to another

In November 2004, ICANN announced a transfer policy that applies to all accredited gTLD registrars across the globe.

If you have attempted to transfer a domain name from one registrar to another registrar and the transfer was denied, the "losing" registrar is required to provide the "gaining" registrar with a notice and a specific reason for the denial. You can contact the "gaining" registrar for further assistance.

For further information about the Transfer Policy or to contact ICANN staff with a transfer question, please see http://www.icann.org/transfers/dnholder-faq-03nov04.htm .
