Hi Thomas,
At DNS Belgium, we have implemented a custom "registrar:info" extension for
that a long time ago. Balance or credit limit is a registrar property, so in my
opinion it does not belong in the response of any domain command. Instead of
defining a new registrar object, you could implement the organisation extension
and lobby for an update of the epp-fees extension to include balance data in
info commands? Or something in that direction (I'm not aware of all details of
these extensions)
Kind regards,
Pieter

Hello,
some of our registrars keep asking for a feature to simply inquire their
current account balance and credit limit via EPP.
As far as I can tell, even the latest fee extension draft
("draft-ietf-regext-epp-fees-16") only supports the retrieval of this
information in the response to a *transform* command, but not e.g. in a
check response.
This isn't ideal since the registrar should not be forced to send a
"dummy" sequence of billable commands (e.g., a domain create/delete or
transfer request/cancel sequence) only to get this information.
Also, even if the registrar would store the values from the most recent
"non-dummy" transform response, they could become obsolete quickly due to
intermittent automatic renewals, or account top-up deposits.
What's the opinion in this group regarding the addition of an inquiry
feature, e.g. by adding a flag to the <domain:check> command fee
extension, which could trigger the inclusion of the balance/limit in the
<domain:check> fee response extension?
Best regards,
Thomas Corte
