Does anyone know under what circumstances a name can go past its expiry date without being suspended?

Thanks
 
eg. remax-results.co.uk expired in 2007 and still not suspended !

Don't know the circumstances but 4 years seems to be taking the P*** a little. There are others but that's the oldest on my list (not that I want it if it did drop).

how long does an 'expired' last?

Thanks

Could be forever and a day. (though its normally 30 days, plus 60 days suspended the variance between 90 to 92 days to the drop accounts for an exact match to the 3 calendar month to deletion)

I've requested domains to go on-hold due to an enquiry to purchase (with the requester identifying and aware of the drop-date) never followed up by the original enquirer - Yet still on hold months later. In fact I've even gone back to my registration service provider and asked them to re-enter domains on my account (long past the scheduled drop) and renewed. It does hold the renewal to its original accounting due date though.

Fu*ks up my domain lists though because the renewal date from my registration service coincides with the re-entry date . but the true renewal is still the underlying Nominet one
