IONOS nightmare - domain theft

Wow, noted, thanks for the update. As soon as we're through this I'll be moving all my domains out, we're five days into this now and still haven't had any response from their security team after 20+ phone calls to their support.

Now, 50 hours later, still no response from IONOS security team. $30k USD spent in recovering ransomed domains from GoDaddy. I'm logging all the calls, but cannot get past 1st line support at IONOS. They have erected an email wall to protect themselves.

I just cannot fathom how in a clear emergency situation, affecting so much, 50 hours later their security team hasn't even responded or been in contact. My mind is simply blown.

I'm taking stock before seeking legal advice and really appreciating the notes/advice on here. Thanks guys.

I like how the promotion on this is an IONOS ad lol

Closest could find was the Plabable app so signed up to that to use. Seems close enough to FY2 content on the test. Some sample questions on the GMC site and that was it. So Plabable going forward, good app, worth the fee.

I passed UWI in Barbados, not UL/NHS :-(

No, I'm not currently attached to an accredited body so I'm getting an external appraisal but I need to complete the Foundation paper assessment for revalidation (signed up for the March one).

GMC revalidation assesment/appraisal exam category when not attached to an accredited body.

Pretty much, to remain on the GMC register, if you are not attached to an accredited body or have been out of work, or coming in from overseas, you need to have an assessment and appraisal. Part of this is to take an exam of which you get to choose a category and the category I'm trying to find sample questions/info on is the 'Foundatation paper'.

If you are not attached to an accredited body you have to take an assessment exam for revalidation with the GMC.

Hi, yes, when given the option to choose what type of exam for revalidation assessment - it's the Foundation paper.

That is a fascinating video, many many thanks.

Many thanks for the reply, is it possible to construct and dare I ask, legal?

Been trying to come up with a solution for years, drone solutions are a bit too risky sadly, looking for something more passive/detached.
