my answer is....... no i don't have the answer,
but if you already have the .co.uk aren't you not almost entitled to the .uk ?
or have they made it tougher?
my question is what happens with a COR, do the same rules apply? that you need a UK address ?
so potentially someone in UK could register the domain on your request and then flip it to you.
but because you own the .co.uk, surely you would be contacted if someone tried to do that
this is another aspect that moving to a .au is going to happen which needs to be considered.

I thought EuropeRegistry.Com may act as agents??
Thanks for the link. I was looking a Skypax which is very similar. I believe they are validating the name against the UK Electoral roll and business records also.
Has this approach worked? Is there a risk that multiple names registered to different entities based at a single address will raise a red flag?
Horshack do you have a link to your info that domain registration addresses are being checked against electoral roll and business records? Thanks

Hi elbanch, I haven't tried this as yet. Here's the link regarding the verification process: http://registrars.nominet.org.uk/na...omain-management/data-quality/data-validation
This link also off the previous linked page: http://registrars.nominet.org.uk/namespace/uk/data-quality/data-validation-process

As with .nz, the .uk is reserved for those with the longer versions only for now.
What I want to know is, if I acquire a .co.uk does it then become a new registration, or does it keep the age of the previous registration?
I purchased a .co.nz as a dropping domain a while back but was unable to get the .nz as I was not eligible because it was as a new registration
Does anyone know if the same applies to .uk?
I guess it comes down to the transfer process.

" that's what i have been talking about for .au " , surely this is affecting the .co.nz drop market ?

Yep I agree with that. I've only got a few .co.uk domains and I haven't bothered with the matching .uk.
