    September .uk drop discussion

    All of these are pointing to the same type of ad site. The domain I was looking for (Andysworld.uk) is pointing to the same are of ad site and renewed before the renewal date. Hardly convinced it's a premium site! Nominet said it was a last minute renewal. I remain unconvinced. Interesting that...

    That’s correct, dropcatcher and domainjunky being others it also never dropped, renewed before it did

    Wanted: Domain Domain wanted help

    The domain I was after is andysworld.uk Just hoped I’d be able to catch it this time but it’s now pointing to an ad site with no clear way to try and buy it unfortunately

    September .uk drop discussion

I didn’t think it held any value but I wanted as a personal site and is currently just pointing to an ad site i have contacted the person with RoR to see if they renewed it, as...

    It wasn’t the last day. The last day was the 10th I believe and it was renewed on the 8th. As far as I could see it didn’t drop at all. It is showing as current registration ending in July 21 which I believe reflects that

    Well yes... I could have contacted him at any time during the 6 years I know but was kind of hoping it would naturally drop off given it wasn’t being taken! Fingers crossed.

    Nominet say no issues seen, I was being overly optimistic! So, looks like very last minute renewal from the RoR. Active website so have contacted him to see if he would want to sell the .Uk so we shall see. Not totally hopeful to be honest but want to try.

    Wanted: Domain Domain wanted help

    It’s not an engineered thread I had it registered with 3 different catchers and none caught it as it was renewed before it dropped so not sure why you think it is an engineered thread and/or contested? I did try and register dragon.uk with a few drop catchers too, that one dropped and I missed...

    Wanted: Domain Domain wanted help

    That’s a lot to read but having a look now, thanak I’m having a look through the thread now and talking to dropped.uk and have now emailed nominet as it feels dodgy to me maybe the person who has RoR did renew a day before drop, but something feels off. Even more so now I’ve read about the...

    But fasthosts said the site would drop off and it was suspended. Are you saying they didn’t allow the site to drop off and sold it to someone before? that sounds really dodgy. Have PM’d
