The say they have first come first served service. Not true. They get greedy.

Read my story here.

here is someone elses story

If you have good stories let me know.

Lesson learned
 
I've never used their service yet... and maybe never will because of this info. Thanks for the heads-up.
 
I also don't trust them because they say even if they catch domains, they might sell it to others as "priority offers".

Say you catch a nice name and they like it, they might simply ask someone to buy that.

Waste of time, I think.
 
they also send out email to people trying to sell the domain before they even own it. scummy as f*cuk@!
 
They looked promising but they have some disturbing way of doing business.
After the snapnames fiasco this is not going to bring trust to the industry.
 
I wonder if these are the same people who tried to sell a domain to me, that I owned, for over a year?
 
interesting name for a company, its like calling a 400 lb frat boy, Tiny.
90% of the time, its the total opposite.
 
Sounds like they monitor the bids at namejet.com for names they go after and if they catch them they offer them to the highest bidder on NJ for their last bid.

I had Intrustdomains email me on several occassions.

Usually they contact me when a .COM is about to drop when i own the .NET version of that domain. They basically send me then a different email each day trying to get me to backorder the domain through their site. I just email them back saying I have zero interest in the domain so they don't try to drop catch it (unless of course someone else showed interest in it as well). After sending this email I then find out the exact time the domain will drop and hand reg it myself for a fraction of the cost.

I hand regged 2 domains this way. I didn't even know they were about to drop if it wasnt for intrust domains emailing me about them so I guess they are good for something ;)

!!amazingday!!, I'm in your shoes...and I'm kinda shocked they are so dumb to not use the available services to ensure that hand regg'ing can't beat them...but just want to say thanks - great tip! hand reg if you get an email from intrustdomains..the Nigerian scam domain company (according to their alexa stats).
 
unfortunately have seen them beat the top three public catchers lately on some decent names.

Yup, noticed the same. Sad that their service is not to par or they would get much more business. They are beating the top 3 though for some very nice names.
 
From their website...."All customer service is treated with the highest of responsibility".....and "no matter what the issue, the buck stops with Rose"....her email is below. Maybe she can buck up some explanations here about their reported shady dealings.
