Hi all, I'm after a .co.uk domain name that was due for renewal 25th July 2010, so far it's not been renewed, when will I be able to get it and also can I pay a small fee to a company or domain name catcher to make sure I get it, not sure if you can do this sort of thing.

It's not a big name or anything that can make money but it's ideal for my needs and no I won't disclose the name lol.
 
Thanks for that, how will I know the company domainmonster wont just get the domain name if I disclose it when I use their system?

Because like other drop catchers, they won't be in business for too long if they play games. Your fears are unfounded. Try caught.co.uk and droppr.co.uk as well.
 
Thanks guys, just looked on domain monster and its available to back order, which company has best reputation cheers.
 
Mark-UK - you're best bet is to book it with all of them (as it's usually no win no fee) to stand the best chance.

domainmonster.com
caught.co.uk

and of course dropsystem.co.uk
 
PM mcnm on here, hes a very good catcher from what I see :) good luck!

Chances are that even if someone else gets the domain, you can buy it off them.
 
Domain Monster
Drop Catcher
Caught
DropSystem

I have most success with Caught followed by DropSystem ever since Dom Mon went live with the new system and all the other catchers are using it, my sucess rate has fallen through the floor.

DropSystem has the advanage of being able to buy more speed, so theoretically it can improve your odds.
 
Thanks guys for the help.

After a decent .co.uk name with job in it if poss, short no hyphens like jobtoday.co.uk.
 
I ordered the back order last night and just now tried searching for the name in their search box and its allowing me to back order, i thought it was 1 backorder per name?

Which company?

I bet it is Domain Monster, and I bet he didn't "check out" - I have almost fallen foul to this myself by mistake, as once you have clicked "order" you need to check out and complete the purchase/order for it to be booked
 
Hi Mark-UK, Everyone

If this backorder was intended to be with us I'm happy to check if it has been successfully placed.

It firmly is only one backorder per name so it shouldn't be allowing you to register another backorder if you've already placed it. End of story!

If you wanted me to check please feel free to email support@domainmonster.com and I can check the domain is successfully ordered without you disclosing it here.

Best Regards, April
