Where they ever responsible for .io too?

I hate how I paid for o1.io and their system failed on me. Poorly designed system, and they ignored my attempts to get support. Many weeks later they reverted my transaction with PayPal and eventually announced the domain was 10k pounds. Damn it!

All the new TLDs have what's called "premium" domains. These encompass the one word and short domain names, which they will sell for MUCH higher. When they are flagged as premium on the back end, most registrars do a piss poor job of advertising it as such to the customer and will even allow you to go as far as ordering it if it's available, just to refund it after because it's actually a premium domain and they don't properly support the registration of them directly.

.io is not one of the "new" gTLDs, though, it's a ccTLD just like .uk
