We had a couple of domain names registered with Network Solutions that were up for renewal. While we were in the renewal process, we were suddenly informed by Network Solutions that the domain names had been reserved by someone else on the date they expired. This date was after we had requested a renewal. Network Solutions tells us that the only thing we can do is contact the company that reserved the domains, New Media Investments Inc, and try to get them back from them. They were kind enough to provide us with the contact details. As if it was not bad enough that Network Solutions let the domains go to someone else after we had requested renewal, here is the real twist to this sad story. Guess who owns New Media Investments Inc - none other than Network Solutions! This should not be legal!
