that's a nice chunk of change for nominet before the auctions even start

All customers who have been allocated a .me.uk today should now have an e-mail from us containing further details.

If you know that you have been allocated a domain but haven't received an e-mail, please let me know.

Email received, awaiting payment instructions.

Forgot to ask, what is the recommended payment method? The wire transfer sounds good to me but I worry (as I'm taking part in more than one auction) about the seven day deadline.

someone posted (and i also checked) that the terms actually say 30 days so you should be fine.

Are auctions grouped together for billing? If not, what would stop somebody bidding up to win all the auctions they were in, then cherry picking the best to actually pay for?

 

[dta]

each auction is invoiced and billed seperately

 

[dta]

anyone know if any of the .me.uk domain auctions are being rerun due to non-payment of invoices?

Two are still showing as unregistered:

cg.me.uk and sg.me.uk

There is one applicant in common on them and only one other applicant on each so I'm presuming if they aren't paid for that they will simply be allocated to the other applicant rather than re-run.
