The Domain Is Back!

Hi Guys

Great News! 

We (or to be more precise you) got MakeUseOf.com domain back.

I just requested Kaly to change the nameservers to original ones so the site should be coming back within the next 24 hours.

I am going to get some sleep now. Till tomorrow

Thank You!

Some Updates

---

4.30 PM (GMT) : Called GoDaddy and was basically told to wait until GoDaddy legal team reviews the documents that were sent to them about 20 hours ago. The support guy told me it may take another 24 hours. Plus he had no idea whether it's 24 hours until they just start reviewing our case or get the domain back. I am really disappointed in them here, it took them less then an hour to transfer domain to another registrar. Who knows how long it will take now to get it back.

5.00 PM (GMT): As suggested by someone in the email I sent an email to GoDaddy PR department explaining the problem.

5.35 PM (GMT): Got email from GoDaddy legal. They are looking into it. Waiting for reply ....

6.05 PM (GMT): Got another email from GoDaddy:

Thank you for your reply.

We have contacted Enom on your behalf regarding MAKEUSEOF.COM and have requested an FOA (Form of Authorization) for the transfer. If their records also show the same registrant at the time of transfer, we will work with them to see if they can transfer the name back.

We will keep you posted on the progress.

9.00 PM (GMT): Talked to Domain Disputes Dept. at GoDaddy. They told me that they're now basically waiting for ENOM to reply. If ENOM clears the domain, it should be either returned to the account on GoDaddy or set up under new account on ENOM.

9.20 PM (GMT): Send an email to ENOM Legal and PR department hoping to quicken things up.
