Of the ones I've tried, you can only do that if the .uk itself registered and dropping. If the .uk is available, but can't be registered because the .co.uk has ROR, you can't backorder it.
My understanding is that if the .co.uk drops, it loses ROR and the .uk immediately becomes free for all. That's the scenario where I want to grab the .uk, and the catch services I've tried (dropped and ukbackorder) don't seem to cover this. Or did I completely misunderstand how the ROR works?

My site and people using my system *do* cover this.
For example tomorrow 08000287085.co.uk will drop. That has the ROR on the uk. You'll see that if you look it up you can place a backorder on both the co.uk and uk (I wouldn't though it's an awful domain
