Issue with Caught.co.uk...

[devolution]

I don't know if anyone else has had this issue...

...but this has happened to me on a number of occasions...

I will try and backorder a suspended domain, but it says the domain isn't suspended and hence it cannot be backordered.

Chris... do you know why this does this? And can it be fixed?

Thanks

Hiya ive not come across this problem or atleast no one has mentioned it. Your welcome to send me the name in question and I will take alook.

Is the name def. Suspended and not just renewal required.

It could be related to this:

Whois lookup limit 1,000 requests per 24 hours per IP address

It uses whois2 to do the check, if you've blocked your IP from the whois before trying to backorder I think they show as unavailable to backorder.

I spend most days resetting my router every 5 mins

I had this happen to me for the first time the other day.

I don't think I'd got anywhere near the WHOIS limit. I realised it had happened when I used the WHOIS link in the caught results to see who had reg'd it and Nominet listed it as suspended.

Only problem is, I can't remember what the name was!

It may just be timing out at Nominets end, or too many folks trying to backorder try again a bit latter.

Whilst were on the subject Chris, and only a minor thing, I find the login completely ignores you if you omit the "www" from the caught URL.

Like i say minor and i havent tried to login in IE
