jailender Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 On the radio this morning they said that 1500 domains were issued yesterday, a lot more than was anticipated. You must have gone for one that was applicable to other folk as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mariokempes56 Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I applied for one was told it was available so paid for it. Then an email saying it was no longer available after all (and I had fully paid). Something dodgy about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tartan Tarantula Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Looked into it last night for a blogspot. 40 quid per year, compared to 10 quid (or less) for a .co.uk or .com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flure Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I booked one ages ago. Now just waiting for it to be released and processed. I'll let you all guess what it might be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deecie Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I applied for 2 and got 1. If anybody out there managed to register "aberdeen.scot" - I'd like a forwarding email address please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tartan Tarantula Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I booked one ages ago. Now just waiting for it to be released and processed. I'll let you all guess what it might be. 60plus.scot? ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLAS Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Pre-ordered last year... but my registrar forgot to tell me they are not allowed to register .scot Turns out I lost the domain. Don't use uniteddomains.com - shite customer service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tartan Tarantula Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Best I could get was 19.99 from 1&1 so I didnae bother. Aye, that was for the first year, jumping up to 40 quid in year 2 onwards, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

runningtings Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Aye, that was for the first year, jumping up to 40 quid in year 2 onwards, right? To be honest I didn't get that far, just thought it wasn't worth it at 20 quid. Cheeky bastards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rasputin Posted September 25, 2014 Author Share Posted September 25, 2014 So i got the reason why i was knocked back for the domain i requested: Unfortunately the domains could not be registered. The domain areconsidered to be a premium domain and is not available for generalregistration. So they have decided my family name is a 'premium' name and i as someone who has had that name since birth isn't allowed to use it. Very egalitarian.
