Just a friendly, but important reminder to DLS members to make sure your contact information is up-to-date.
If it lapses, there may be offers or private messages waiting for you that you never find out about. Or don’t get quickly enough. Remember, the longer a lead waits, the colder it gets. It would be a shame to miss out on sales because of something simple.
To check or edit your contact information.
1. Log into Afternic
2. Go to My Afternic
3. Click “My Account Information” in the left-hand nav bar. Click “Edit Information” if you need to update it.
Email service (a) afternic.com for help.

A few weeks ago Afternic began adding Tucows expiring domain name inventory to our daily expiry auctions. During the first few days of the integration we experienced technical issues and several domains with preorders were inadvertently removed from the site during the daily update process. Fortunately, the domain errors were extremely limited and have been tested and corrected. We appreciate and thank our members for their understanding.
