OK. I have a question: There is a section in the "Automated Daily Renewal Reminder for <today>" headed "The following names were not renewed and will be deleted today:"
What exactly gets included in this section? The domain name that I have been very frustrated about was never included in that section, and now another domain name (surprisingly enough, owned by the same registrant), I have just discovered, has just been taken from my reseller account today (I had calculated that this second one should have been deleted on December 21 or 22 and the first one was taken on day 37 after expiry) without ever being included in that section. I had thought that the names get deleted on or about day 40 after expiry. If they are always done on day 37, I could live with that, but the fact that they are "dropped" (or scooped up by Tucows) on a any random day is what frustrates me. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, Tucows: If you are going to take ownership of these domains, at least let us know when! In answer to Maxine's earlier question, until this year, I was 100% successful in getting a name that had expired, either previously owned by my client or not. Each one had cost me about $10.00US and I had sold each one for $15.00. I don't think buying a name previously belonging to your client and selling it back to that client for anything more than your normal rate is ethical. Now I have to put in big letters on every expiry notice "IF YOUR NAME IS NOT PAID BY THE EXPIRY DATE, THE $15.00 RENEWAL FEE GOES UP TO $100.00 (or more)". Maybe at least that will get them paying on time.
