    They have me jumping through hoops now with copies of passports etc. It's not as if I was trying to order a registered company name or a politician's name. Ireland and red tape grrrrrr.

    I've just got official notification from IEDR that Hagar.ie is now formally registered in my name.

    The accepted the fact that I have been using the pseudonym Hagar on Boards.ie for over 7 yrs as sufficient precedent to grant me the domain.

    I'm counting this as a win. :D

    Just search for your domain, then add to cart.
    It'll bring you through some questions, but don't worry about the price for the .ie. It'll show up as €5 at the end (then add on the VAT).


    Just got mine registered and approved. My online meteor account allowed me to download a bill in pdf format. That was enough for registration.
    Very easy to do.

    Just need to work out what I'm going to do with my site now :eek:

    If your not looking for a business name domain just type in the word "None" that's what I did and it worked out fine.

    They won't let me register my own name as a domain. :( Fuppin' IEDR are a bunch of cocks! I wanted to register just my surname, which is unusual enough that I'm not depriving someone else of the opportunity. The domain's available, if someone had wanted it that badly, they'd have had it by now, FFS!

    Maybe register your surname as a business name ?

    I use blacknight by the way and find them so helpful and a pleasure to deal with.

    Does he have a registered business name ? if so you can check it up from www.cro.ie and get the number for it there and then register it with that :)

    Agreed, their "rules" seem to be getting more bent by the day.

    Between this and catholic.ie redirecting to countmeout.ie my respect to their registration policy has gone done.

    But congrats on the domain Hagar. It's a good 'un.
