  Hi there,

  Your domain should probably be in redemption period. Please read the below support document.

  I am tagging this question with the modlook tag on the Tags section of the sidebar. So this thread gets the staffs attention.

  Good morning –

  Typically, the redemption period is only about 80-90 days.

  tomboytam.com is actively registered on a different user account. You need to sign in with tomboytam to access it.

  iamrishaan – please see my comment about the length of the redemption period. If it had been 6 months, the domain would most certainly be free for registration or already picked up by someone else. A quick “whois” search shows that the domain is actively registered through us. Thank you for the help and tag.
