Nothing came through, although if being honest it may have gone to a different address that was on my account with nom. Not sure, but have changed the address to the right one now.

I believe it was, the fact that when this becomes a sport, nominet can't come back and say they weren't warned. My point was never to cause trouble or get a name. It was simply to highlight the problems that are on their way. They have been highlighted and I genuinely think it has run it's course now and will wait till the first real problem comes in.

How long does it take for a DRS to come through for the respondent to reply it says case to be closed in 3 weeks time in if they rule in my favor to i keep the domain for the remaining time of the registration and how am i able to manage the domain and pay for the renewal or can i have it assigned to 123reg

First of all you have to pay your £750 plus VAT for an expert decision. Then you have to win the case. Then you can think about what you are going to do with the name. Then finally you can let everyone know that you issued a DRS against a fellow member and see how many members are happy to communication with you thereafter!

Any reply from Asda?

doodlebug

what if for example your name is Jason Steven Roberts and the owners of Jason.co.uk Steven.co.uk and Roberts.co.uk have different names can you place a DRS against them and win ?
Also what if a company called Roberts limited lost the name to you but they have legitimaly built up a reputable website over say the last 5 years, do you have to pay them for goodwilll due to their generated traffic and what if they have paid for advertising upfront, or does the new owner also get some free advertising ?
if so i have a stack of uk names i would like to claim !!!
I believe their should be an initial cost to stop foul play !!!
NB* I am still learning about the world of domaining so if i talk like i don't know what i am on about PLEASE correct me THANKYOU !!!

hi there

Is it possible for a trademark holder to argue that a registration is abuse if it predates the trademark by several years?

Cheers

Under ther DRS, yes it is. An example might be if the domain was being used to advertise competing products/services in the same trademark class as the registered trademark. This would apply regardless of the dates involved.

I've read the thread from start to finish and it is really interesting, something I did not have a clue that you could now do.

I am interested to know if Nominet has or will bring out a list of protective terms that a domain owner has as it is quite scary that some greedy idiots can file a claim against a name you own and possible get it easily.

In this day and age you would think this could be done via your Nominet control panel or via e-mail to ensure it is not lost in the post. It would also be nice for Nominet to reduce their carbon footprint and costs...and passing these onto domain owners.

Just my two cents.
