Cojak, I'm not with an umbrella, let alone the one you mention. However, I read your interesting post and Googled around a bit too. The website seems to be up, running and very much "in business".Originally posted by cojak View PostAdmittedly, looking the website up on WHOIS.net may help but in compusource.co.uk's case that domain is available!

EDIT: It's definitely not available, it's registered. I sometimes find tat whois.net isn't very good for .co.uk domain namesLast edited by Platypus; 14 April 2014, 11:01.Comment

I know! I didn't know that was possible with WHOIS saying the domain is available - could someone double-check that??Originally posted by Platypus View PostCojak, I'm not with an umbrella, let alone the one you mention.

I've got the domain details and registrant's address ... want them?Originally posted by cojak View PostI know! I didn't know that was possible with WHOIS saying the domain is available - could someone double-check that??
EDIT: Domain is registered to the same (private) address as the company's registered office: simple job to look on the land registry and get the name of the propert ownerLast edited by Platypus; 14 April 2014, 11:09.Comment
