Hello guys, i let my domain expire. It was at namecheap, all the email alerts went to my junk mail, so i didnt know untill today. The domain expired the 21st july, but the 30 days is up now (by ONE day). I thought the period lasted for 40 days? I seen my domain whois has a new expiry date (21st july 2007). I dont understand . Has name cheap re-registered the domain without it dropping fully? Is there any how i can get the name back?
You should be in the "redemption period", meaning for a fee + regular registeration you can still renew it. Think of it as a speeding ticket. The cost is about the same.
Did you set it to auto-renew ? If so, it could have just renewed during the expiration date. In the Namecheap control panel, do you still see the domain name listed in your account and if so, what is the status ?
All my details are the same apart from the name servers ICANN Registrar: ENOM, INC. Created: 2005-08-21 Expires: 2007-08-21 Status: Locked Name Servers: dns1.name-services.com dns2.name-services.com dns3.name-services.com dns4.name-services.com dns5.name-services.com I guess they have renewed it without letting it go into the redemption period?
Check your account if the domain is still there? if yes check for renewal date there if no send a mail to the support for renewal
