It happens sometimes. I once owned a domain via MediaTemple registered to an account that no longer existed. I tried but MT wouldn't let me renew the domain even with proof that I was the owner other account (whois contact info, cc purchase history).
Only way to get that domain back was to let it expire and hope no one took it.
- crazydoggers 7y agoWhat do you mean by “the account no longer existed” Do you mean you no longer had access to the email? If you either have the email account or you know the password to your domain account you should be able to get in and change things/renew. Otherwise you’d have to lose both your email account and your password.
- SenHeng 7y agoThe email account no longer existed because our company shutdown and all email addresses were deleted. The MT account too was deleted using the dashboard. After the storm settled and I got control of all remaining assets, I decided I wanted to keep the domain for sentimental value which is when I discovered that it was all gone.
