First 24 Hours. DotAsia Uptake Phenomenal
The first 24 hours of the DotAsia Landrush are nearing completion at 12:00 GMT/UTC today and the response has been immense. Our promotional code will no longer be available from 12:00 GMT/UTC today, so now is your last chance to buy at discounted rates, equivalent to nearly 80% off regular prices.
All orders placed beyond 12:00 GMT/UTC today will NOT be able to take advantage of this promotional pricing. This has only been possible due to a discount available to us during this period from the DotAsia registry.
Therefore, we are pleased to announce that from 12:00 GMT onwards, all orders placed during the remainder of the Landrush period will be refundable*, minus a handling charge, in the event of a losing resulting auction.
Furthermore, the registry opens its doors to first come first served regular registration (Go-Live) on the 26th March 2008. Pre-registration for this final and ultimate stage will be open immediately following the close of Landrush on the 12th March 2008. Should we not manage to fulfil your order upon registry opening and up to 48 hours following, we will fully refund** you without any handling fee. We hope this demonstrates our confidence to fulfil your order faster than any other registrar worldwide at this reputedly busy time for the registry.
* A handling charge of $4.99, 3.99EU or £2.74 will applied to all domains refunded. This is equivalent to the promotional pricing available for the first 24 hours of Landrush and represents our handling costs to maintain your application to auction status. Refunds are only available to Domains entering auction and upon completion of this auction process as a losing bidder. Refunds will be applied to your account at Domainmonster.com within 7 days of the auction process completion and can only be used as a credit for alternative purchases at Domainmonster.com. We do not charge for automatically acting as your local required .asia CED contact, if detected that this is required during registration.
** A handling charge will NOT be applied. Refunds will only be applied as a credit to your Domainmonster.com account for alternative purchases. We reserve the right to apply your refund up to 7 days, following Go-Live commence date. We do not charge for automatically acting as your local required .asia CED contact, if detected that this is required during your registration.
