As I understand it (yeah yeah yeah I still havent talked my partner into a tag, but I'm considering some waterboarding torture straight out guantanamo, to make him), that you pay your setup fee, first month, then you can shut off after a month and then pay a montly fee 4 months later, 8 months later to have it turned back on without the setup fee. (correct me if wrong). So if its worth enough then thats your end option
Sure, turn it on and off as you like on a monthly basis.

I think you'll find that most will not share secrets of their specific implementations, however, in simple terms...

Poll the DAC with your name to catch
Check the reply
If not showing as registered submit an EPP registration request as fast as possible (Nominet is 1st come 1st served, no prize for 2nd place)
If showing registered with a recent date, you've been beaten, try again with another name
If showing as registered and suspended and a renewal date 92/99 days ago, loop back and try again you may be lucky.

Some of the companies offer hosted catching systems which may be of interest if you don't fancy writing your own code. We don't offer this service.

All the best, it's certainly a fun coding exercise, but rewarding when you get the 1st catch

both offer hosted Dac, not sure RTL is on here but they offer dac hosting too.

I can't think of any others ?
