REACTIVATION-PENDING

a. Reactivation Period Process. For a period of approximately 30 days after expiration of the term of domain name registration services, we may provide a procedure by which expired domain name registration services may be renewed. We may, but are not obligated to, offer this process, called the “reactivation period.” You assume all risks and all consequences if you wait until close to or after the expiration of the original term of domain name registration services to attempt to renew the domain name registration services. We may, in our sole discretion, choose not to offer a reactivation period and we shall not be liable therefore. The reactivation period renewal process, if any, may involve additional fees which we and your Primary Service Provider may determine.

  • We may make expired domain name services(s) available to third parties,
  • we may auction off the rights to expired domain name services (the auction beginning close to the end or after the end of the reactivation period),
  • and/or expired domain name registration services may be re-registered to any party at any time.

According to some pages ENOM might keep the domain for 120 days (3 months!!) or even renew it themselfs…

Now idea why eNom renewed it for another year, I’m quite sure the owner didn’t. That’s the odd part about it. According to the quote it shouldn’t be in Reactivion Period for a whole year.

Enom’s redemption charge is $250 + 1 year of renewal which I think is very excessive. The domain name is important to me but its borderline as to whether its worth that much to me at the moment.
