Hi guys,
There is one name I backordered with POOL 2 days ago. It's cebucity.com. According to this http://who.is/whois/cebucity.com it was caught by bellnames.com, which is, as I find, looks to be a Pool registrar.
As you see in whois data, there is no too much data.
The name is in my "Backorders" but there is no this name in "succesfull backorders", nor in the "auctions".
Yesterday I sent an email to Pool's support. For now got no reply.
Anybody had such expierience with Pool? I used them 2 years ago last time, so don't know really how they work.
Thanks, Nick

Nope. Nothing happened. I just have it on my backorders (as well as other names backordered in a previous years).
The only one thing that is possible - bellnames.com is not a Pool registrar.

I thought Pool got out of the drop business?

They terminated a number of registrars due to maintenance costs I suppose, but they have not pulled the plug completely.

Correct, they took down 85 registrars before Christmas last year, and created some chaos in the process. The matter has been resolved as far as my case is concerned.
