So I've booked a few domains with caught.co.uk and never had any success so far. Also tried dropsystem.co.uk with no success.

Am I wasting my time for the competitive stuff given that I'm up against private drop catchers?

I think the guys who run both those sites hang out here and from what I've read they're competing pretty well with some of the private catchers.

I've tried dropcatcher.co.uk with limited success, but managed to get my first catch today.
 
caught.co.uk got me a name i was after no problems, i have another booked with them, will have to see how that one goes
 
They get me about 90% of all names I book with them. Really quick and courteous service, esp when changing TAG's.

Yes, both good services to book catches with, and in addition to that, several members of the forum operate catching services on a no win no fee basis, so you should book any drops with as many catchers as possible to increase your chances of a catching the name, have a good read of this drop catching section of the forum to find who to book with, members like Dragon and Monaghan spring to kind.
 
Caught has caught several hundred domains for me to date.
 
I'm with Edwin, I can't be far off the 200 mark, I stopped counting at 100, but gotta be close.

You don't really stand a chance of getting the days top catch or LLLs with them, but DropSys have caught at least 1 LLL for £30 a few weeks ago, not sure if Caught ever has but I saw the DS one myself, but its rare.

I think once both of them take advantage of both their quota's things are going to change.
 
Dropsystem got my first catch yesterday, so I'll be trying them again soon.
 
I've done well with caught in the past - not used them (or anyone else) recently.

I use both, and both have caught me several. I highly recommend both.
 
Thanks for all the replies guys. I guess I just got disheartened missing my first few attempts.

Will keep trying.
 
in the last week caught.co.uk has caught me

enginemapping.co.uk
hikingsupplies.co.uk
drivewaysealers.co.uk
liftrepair.co.uk

and lots of others :D
 
Possibly a stupid question in the eyes of veterans here, but are there any good (free?) resources to get lists of soon expiring domains?

Cheers.

How do you know anyone else was trying for those? no offence but they wouldnt be on my list.
 
OK fair comment, so whats the last 5 names you have caught then just so i can see where i am going wrong :D
 
The basic fact is that anyone who wants to book names - shite or otherwise - should book them with ALL catchers that do it on a 'no win. no fee' basis.

I'm deeply offended by the language in this post. I'm going to report you to a forum moderator. I am outraged that you have used language that is in common everyday use. ;)

Cheers for the decent catch today Dale :p
