When will I be able to use my Sunrise/Landrush .tel domain name?

The .tel registry (Telnic) won't be enabling the DNS/Whois functionality for .tel domain names until on or before Friday 6th March 2008. They have documented this at the following link, http://telnic.org/community-landing.html . At this point, you will be able to select your domains from your Members Area and start administering them.

We appreciate a previous date of 25th February 2009 was published and this was the original date. Unfortunately, there has been a small delay at the Telnic registry due to the overwhelming demand for .tel, but we do hope the wait will be worthwhile! We stress this delay was a decision made by the .tel Registry and not Domainmonster.com.

All domains purchased during Sunrise and Landrush will commence their 3 year registration period on the 24th March 2009 for a 3 year period, regardless of what date the domain goes live.
