“DAN.COM - James Oliver - P3-UK - NOMINET - undeveloped.com
Shady domain hijacking company that extorts genuine domain buyers.
I suspect someone who is working for NOMINET has set up the fore mentioned companies to hijack / squat domains.
I’ll try to keep this brief:
Events on 11th January 2022
I’ve been looking at purchasing a domain for some time and noticed the expiry date was over 3 months old, so I was advised to contact the registrar who was LCN.
LCN advised me to contact NOMINET to see if there was a problem with the process of the domain being listed again.
I duly contacted NOMINET who asked me what the domain name was and they would look into it. A lady explained that after a domain has been suspended it takes 3 months and 1 week to be listed again.
She advised the domain would be relisted imminently. This was 11th January 2022.
So I waited, refreshed, waited, refreshed… The domain was still not being listed for sale anywhere.
TODAY
18th January 2022
After doing a WHOIS search I see the domain was registered 1 DAY after I called NOMINET.
The domain is now up for re-sale with DAN.COM.

Seems VERY strange that this meaningless hyphenated .co.uk domain was registered and put up for sale 1 day after I inquired about it.
Keep it.”
“I sold a domain that was listed on undeveloped.com with BIN price. The communication was smooth and payment was quick. I listed all my domains on their website 1 month ago.
Trustworthy/Reliable company to do business with.”
“Sold a domain via undeveloped.com, very fast, transparent and professional. Bought one as well, love the installment option as it gave me more options for a great domain.”
“Excellent domain escrow service! Their team was perfect in handling the transfer of the domain I bought from a seller on their platform. Communication was fast, helpful. They kept the money locked in escrow until I had received my new domain name. Fast, easy and safe!”
“I've sold dozens of my domain names through Undeveloped.com - It is a legit service that provides a platform for owners of domain names to connect and sell to potential buyers. Undeveloped collects payment while holding the domain name then releases the funds to the seller once the domain transfer has been completed to the buyer, usually all completed the same day. Simple, straightforward, secure process. Highly recommend for buying and selling.”
“The client I represent was told that he would have full control of the domain he purchased and would be able to transfer to a registrar of his choosing, such as GoDaddy, iPower or Host Gator, immediately after purchase. That was not the case. The domain was locked upon purchase and could only be transferred to another account holder on Network Solutions. My client was forced to create a Network Solutions account and spend another $75 to build the domain on Network Solutions.”
