Hi I registered my domain of <MYCOMPANY>.CO.UK in April 2010 and the domain
search on DD says I have the first right to register MYCOMPANY.UK. However
when I try to register the name it same i need an admin in the UK. Isn't that
YOU? Please tell me how to proceed please so I can register the domain. Thanks

======= from your FAQ:=========
Direct registrations on .UK officially launched on June 10 2014 08:00 UTC.
Prior to this date there were only a few registrations that had been allowed on
.UK.

As a courtesy to .CO.UK domain owners, they have the first rights to their
domain name on .UK.

If you are a .ORG.UK owner, you have first rights to your domain name on .UK
only if no one owns your domain name on .CO.UK.

If you are a .ME.UK owner, you have first rights to your domain name on .UK
only if no one owns either the .CO.UK or the .ORG.UK.

The only exception to the above break down of first rights is if the higher
priority domain was purchased after 10/28/13 23:59 UTC and the lower priority
domain was purchased before this date. For example, if the .CO.UK domain name
was purchased after 10/28/13 23:59 UTC and the .ORG.UK was purchased before
that date, then the .ORG.UK owner has the rights to their domain name on .UK.

All owners have the rights to their .UK domain name until 6/10/19 07:59 UTC.

If you are unsure if you have the rights to your domain name on .UK, you can
check using the rights checker on dotuklaunch.co.uk.

If you would like to purchase a .UK domain name that you have the rights to,
you must use the same registrant name that you used for your .CO.UK, .ORG.UK,
or .ME.UK domain name. Please note that in order to register a .UK domain, you
must also have an admin in the UK as .UK domains are restricted.

Excellent!

Just wanted to report that I got everything successfully completed. Dynadot email help found the problems with my registration and helped me get it corrected. Thanks Support!!!

Our apologies for the delay.

We do not provide an admin contact for .UK domains. To assist you further, please email [email protected] with the .CO.UK domain name you own and we will look into the issue you're facing.
