As per the 15th of November 2008, we will be changing our business-, trade, and domain name from "12Register" into "Realtime Register" (and 12register.com into realtimeregister.com). Reasons for this change have been legal issues on our domain name and commercial considerations for future growth of our company. Our new name "Realtime Register" perfectly describes what we stand for and what we can offer you as a reseller or webuser.
Nothing will change other than our business name, domain name and email addresses. Our services will be running on both of our domains 12register.com and realtimeregister.com up to the 1st of May 2009, after that, only realtimeregister.com will be used. We will publish technical information for the customers using our EPP, e-Mail and/or domain-check interface shortly.
If you have any questions, concerns or remarks, do not hesitate to contact us by phone or email.
18.30 UPDATE: Allthough the problem was unresolved, SIDN has brought registration services back online.
10.30: At the moment there is a serious problem at the systems of the dutch .nl registry SIDN causing downtime to their registrationssystems and availability checks. The problems are currently investigated by SIDN. For the moment .nl registration and/or .nl availability check is not possible. We will inform you when the problem is resolved.
As of today, the .ME domain registration period has been changed from 2 years to 1 year, making this domain 50% cheaper to start with.
Previously registered .ME domains will keep the 2 year registration period, which was also paid for.
Despite a major price increase at COM NET ORG INFO domains (raised with 0,38 to 0,60 USD), 12Register will not change register prices for these domains (no sooner then 1/1/2009).
Make sure you register your COM NET ORG INFO domains with 12Register before 1/1/2009!
