Stan Marsh 11-08-2006, 12:40 AM You mean redeMPtion, don't you? You can check drop date at services like FreeWHO (http://freewho.com/checker/index.php).

Good luck! dannyy 11-08-2006, 08:16 AM A domain is usually in Redemption Period for 30 days. The existing owner can still get it out of redemption by paying the registrar's Redemption Fee. After the 30 days are up it goes into a Pending Delete status for 5 days. After 5 days it will drop. stub 11-08-2006, 08:02 PM I ask again. Where is it registered? Darklegi0n 11-09-2006, 05:49 AM the whois says: Registration Service Provided By: HOSTING LMI, S.L. stub 11-09-2006, 06:10 AM Never heard of them. Sorry, I can't help.

Are the sites below them? lomejordeinternet.net hostinglmi.com If they are, they're both DirectI resellers (aka Public Domain Registry due to their rebranding): Domain Name: LOMEJORDEINTERNET.NET Registrar: DIRECT INFORMATION PVT LTD D/B/A PUBLICDOMAINREGISTRY.COM Whois Server: whois.PublicDomainRegistry.com Referral URL: http://www.PublicDomainRegistry.com Domain Name: HOSTINGLMI.COM Registrar: DIRECT INFORMATION PVT LTD D/B/A PUBLICDOMAINREGISTRY.COM Whois Server: whois.PublicDomainRegistry.com Referral URL: http://www.PublicDomainRegistry.com If the WHOIS of the domain name in question indeed says it's on redemption, then count roughly 35-36 days from its last updated date. If the date said Oct. 27, then it'll be released approximately on Dec. 1. Assuming we're talking about a .com domain name, of course. |
