How long takes EuroDNS to register a domain?

[omosquera]

I cant believe this: I ordered a .es domain registration last night and I still havent get any Confirmation , Im very afraid EuroDNS donesnt register my domain!

Perhaps Freddy can help me out ...

I think it takes some time to charge the credit card, I guess they process them in batch to save fees ?

i think it took 4-5 days back when I was trying to reg some .es names - not sure though it might have been sooner than that

 

[katherine]

Is manual registry approval still required for .es ?

hi,
I am from eurodns and I would like to help you improving registration with us. Additionally I will explain you the Creditcard issue all registrars have.

1. on creditcards is a lot of fraud, as soon thedomain is registered the registrar has costs which he can not get back.
so new clients are screened double to make sure to do not loose money. dont enter fake information like phone numbers 123456.
we try to call you some times, if you do not answer there is the risk that we refuse the order.

2. if you are a know customer at a registrar, please use always the same creditcard(s). In any case it is better for your controlling to use the same card at the same registrars.

3. prefund the account by wire or paypal. if your account is prefunded your registration is realtime. there is no second lost any more waiting for creditcard approval.

4. some registries queue the orders during night/weekend and process them during daytime. Example: France.

5. if you are a known customer ask your registrar to put you on invoice so that you can pay end of the month. we do this with some clients which have a nice amount of domains and which we know since a certain time.

if you have an issue with eurodns I am happy to answer your specific questions by PM.

Hey just wanted 2 say thanks to Freddy at EuroDNS , it was all my fault cause the domain was blacklisted :blush::blush:

I have to be the president of Nigeria in order to grab NIgeria.es !!

Very funny cause if you look at, let say: Italia.es : >>>>>> Parked at Sedo lol

in the very beginning (landrush) you could register nearly everything. later the registry really run in trouble and a lot of names have been locked.
nigeria.es would be really a nice catch.
the thing with the president was more or less a joke, I think an official institiution from nigeria should able to apply for the name or do you have a trademark on the word nigerai? then you should get the name too.
