The .TEL Discussion Thread

[brendan52190]

Hi

For this, let's assume that .tel will not be a total flop.

What type of keywords will be most valuable for this extension? Will it be geographical keywords, like newyork.tel, losangeles.tel, etc, or what else?

noting as of yet here but too much blood rush going

Any registrar currently working for new .tel regs? I am unable to put any order through with Name.com and Dynadot because they both can't check the registry to see the availability of the names, its really annoying!

I have exactly the same problem. :td:

Looks like we broke the internet :D

My registra is down and so is the .tel whois

 

[alex_d]

Was able to register one with www.telcartel.com, and then a few more with Dynadot - but Dynadot is on and off with connecting to the registry.

I've gotten one into my cart three times at Moniker, but it has failed every time.

YEP things is to late for people that haven't pre order. I've pre order some .tel and try to manual order elsewhere and none is working. Also not much left on great .tel

http://www.webnames.ca seems to be able to connect to the registry 2 times on 3.. If it can help someone. They charge $39.98/2 years though.

I almost registered 3 .tel with them but I think I'll stick with my 2 current ones I paid 300$ (nightlife[dot]tel and nightclubs[dot]tel) !

i see all my 41 domain in my list on DM with the orange mark and emails and all other things but no dates ?

[chader144]

ok lesson learned today.. (again) call credit card company and tell them that activity is going to be happening over the next few days

 

[Billy2009]

I dunno domainmonster just updated their premium list and I got a couple first names. Not sure If i got them yet but they are off the list now.

 

[zapdaddy]

I have not gotten through with Dynadot even once yet.

 

[ginggang]

Got 9 including hampshire.tel to go with my hampshire.mobi

Through .tel cartel

 

[randomo]

Looks like I finally got one, through Dynadot.

 

[ginggang]

I think there is a problem somewhere. Teh .tel whois is not being updated. I got 8 through .tel cartel and then the system seems to have fallen over somewhere as my 9th reg shows as still being available on .tel whois

 

[Jasonn]

why is domainmonster letting me "register" domains that the whois says were taken yesterday?? I thought the pre-reg was over...

 

[Shahid7]

none on domain monster till now

 

[steveteva]

just got my name.tel, excellent since the dot com, .net... were taken, looks like all registrar are working now.
