Sheesh, somebody here must know the answer to this question.
Sometimes registrars with autorenew fail to renew. I have both bought and lost domains which had only just barely expired. I've had stuff registered with registrars who did not send renewal e-mails at all. I've had domains where the registrar might have sent them, but they refused to update my contact e-mails when my ISP was bought out. Some registrars will refuse to transfer some of your domains if you do a bulk transfer and it is easy to miss that you only got 18 out of 20 you input. I ended up paying off someone who bought a domain I owned the trademark for because it was cheaper than the arbitration thing and the guy basically made his living selling to people like me for under $900. I had the .net and the prior owner of the .com was in a different industry and also had a legit trademark, but netsol refused to release the domain for months and months and then this guy was able to beat my snapnames and constant checking and e-mail me within less than a day.
I also kept a snapnames on my most important domains until it did not work for me.
So, what do people use to beat a snapnames and can it be used to protect a domain important to you?
