claiming an expired domain

[badgeman]

Hi

Can you tell me if it is posible to claim a domain name that has not had its registration renewed.

If it is posible how long after non-renewal , and how would you go about it.

many thanx

best bet is to get in touch with the support team of who you purchased the domain from and tell them you want to reclaim it. they normally have it sorted fairly fast for you (well they have when ever i have done this)

Miffy .... the domain is currently not mine .

Any other help would be welcome

123Reg had a facility to auto-purchase a domain when it was available again if that's any use?

i think you have to wait 91 days...!!!

I have tried to speed this up but it can only be down with authority from the current owner...

Thanks guys. much appreciated.

Be wary. I did the same and waited for a domain name for a friend. It was taken immediately and they now want 800 dollars for it.
