    Accused of 'abusive registration'! Any suggestions?

    Hi namealot, No, they're an independent company that specializes in copyright, patents, IP, etc. Finding out if I have the right to the name (more maybe more accurately, if they have any right to the name) appears to me to be next to impossible. Although I guess there is no definite...

    Accused of 'abusive registration'! Any suggestions?

    Thanks Bailey/Namealot. Yeah, it might be that - just gathering information. I said it was 'funny' because their spy already offered me double that, and they knew full well I wouldn't accept. You may be right there, in that they are trying to appear to be reasonable with me before taking...

    Accused of 'abusive registration'! Any suggestions?

    Hey again. Thanks to everyone for the replies. Just a little update on what has happened so far. After looking into some of the previous offers people had made me for the domain, it turns out at least one of them was a spy. He worked for a company specializing in intellectual property...

    Accused of 'abusive registration'! Any suggestions?

    Cheers namealot. Well I imagine their next step will be a Nominet dispute. I guess I'm just concerned that I could end up losing the name for nothing if that happened - I'm not sure how reasonable (or unreasonable) Nominet are. :( They sent the letter by recorded delivery, yes. But as...

    Accused of 'abusive registration'! Any suggestions?

    Cheers Bailey. Is there more that you think I've missed out? :confused: If so, let me know and I will try to elaborate further in my next post. I will try to send an email over to you later on. Well there is a good chance it is the same company. Many things suggest that, but they say...

    Accused of 'abusive registration'! Any suggestions?

    re The story is exactly as I described before. I'm looking for advice, so lying here I'd only be kidding myself. Getting a solicitor involved might be beneficial, but I'm not sure if I should be spending money on one at this early stage. :( The word is 5 characters long. It's not in the...

    Accused of 'abusive registration'! Any suggestions?

    That's good to hear, as I've never had any adverts on there. They're a big company though, so I won't be surprised if they proceed with the DRS to try to take it from me. I just hope Nominet a fair and reasonable when they judge this type of thing. Thanks, RobM.

    Accused of 'abusive registration'! Any suggestions?

    Thanks for your reply, Mallu. The company taking action against me is a retailer. I've only had personal things on the domain, like a blog, forum, etc. So nothing similar to them at all. I've never tried to sell it to them, nor have I ever contacted their company in my life. However, I...

    Accused of 'abusive registration'! Any suggestions?

    4 years after they had bought it from me, I saw that it was no longer registered to anyone. I assume they had let the name expire.

    Accused of 'abusive registration'! Any suggestions?

    Hey, hopefully someone here could give me some advice on my situation... I own a UK domain and have recently received a solicitors letter claiming I have registered the domain name in bad faith. For anonymity, I'll call the site 'BS.co.uk'. The company, which is based in Europe, has the...
