I made an early registration for a geo .tv domain and as I used uk reg for all my domains when they started registering .tv domains I decided to transfer my .tv in to make it easier for me.

I was preparing to sell it when I realised I could not access the contact details for it on the fasthosts admin, the control panel said it was being set up on the fasthosts dashboard yet when I checked the domain it had some other parking page on it.

It still says the domain provider is fasthosts, the who is still contains my information and I checked the email used on the whois and there is no contact from ukreg/fasthosts or nominet at all regarding renewall.

It has also been listed on namejet.com for $69 !!!

I have sent a support request in to UKReg this afternoon but have not had a reply yet.

Can anyone tell me where i stand and what happens next.

Thanks.

and how would this be nominets fault? (or have i misread this?).

WigWam ;)
 
Didn't say it was nominets fault, just I get emails from them regarding most of my domains on uk reg and had no emails from either company, do nominet even deal with .tv?
I just want my domain back :sad:

:p nominet only deal in .uk domains so they dont deal in .tv domains. Unfortunately if it expired and got caught its a bit late now. To be honest if it is only $69 and you really want the domain just buy it for that :p

Nominet do .uk only

ukreg recently updated their backend and made a complete bollocks of it, I'm guessing it's related to that. If the domain is still in your name then I imagine they will put it back into your account.

After the change I found that a load of my .uk domains were still registered in my name and were in my control panel but the address and admin email address was that of another company. Total screw up.

I'll let you know what fasthosts say, if anything..

Are ukreg/fasthosts any good generally? never had any other issues with them before myself but I haven't been that active so far.
 
HI

we have quite a few tv domains, if yu send me the dates regged, domain etc, I will look at it for you.
 
I've just checked the renewal settings and it was set to auto renew, I then manually clicked the renew button so will see if that makes any difference.

On my domain list its marked as pending and I think has been for some time, however I have altered the dns on it from fasthots in the past.

Think its been caught up in the ukreg borkedness.
 
I had a reply from my support ticket and apparently there was a problem taking payment for the domain renewal, I know this was not due to anything in my control as the credit card on file is is fine and its never been close to its limit. The other domains that were renewed around that time all went through on the card no problem.

I did not receive any notices regarding an issue with taking payment for the renewal and have asked them for evidence of the issue with not being able to take money which I am not holding my breath for a reply.

On a positive note they took payment off the same card for the renewal of barnsley.tv so its back on my account for another 11 months with auto renew set to on! My faith in ukreg/fasthosts is currently restored until the next time lol

Thanks :)
