Common reasons for a domain name being rejected are:

* The Domain Name does not match the company name (ltd.uk and plc.uk)

* The name may be under a 'redemption period' or 'REGISTRAR-LOCK' (TLDs).
You can check the latest 'who is' status at www.internic.net

* Its current status is 'detagged' which means it should come up for renewal at some point in the future (Nominet do not disclose the exact date). You can check the latest 'who is' status at www.nominet.net

We will email you if your name is rejected - just reply to let us know if you would like us to attempt to register another similar domain name for you, or if you would like a refund.
