  Unfortunately this type of domain cannot be locked.  This is a limitation of the Registry that maintains the central database for this type of domain,  not a restriction imposed by Tucows.

• I just registered a .CN domain, why is is not showing in the WHOIS at HTTP://WHOIS.CNNIC.NET.CN?

  Related Topics: .CN

  Detailed answer
   

  The HTTP://WHOIS.CNNIC.NET.CN website will currently only work for domains that were registered directly with CNNIC in China.

  New .CN domains that are registered through Tucows (via NeuLevel) are added to a separate WHOIS database at CNNIC, however that database has not been made public yet.

  No domains registered via NeuLevel for any Registrars are available via whois.cnnic.net.cn as of yet.

  To view .CN domains that are registered through Tucows, please use our WHOIS server

• What is an "orphaned" .UK Domain?

  Related Topics: .UK

  Detailed answer
   

  An “orphaned” .UK domain is when your CO.UK/.ORG.UK domain name is under the TUCOWS-CA IPS tag but it is not associated with a Domain Provider.

  Tucows is a wholesale domain name Registrar, we do not provide support or service to individual domain owners.  All support and service for your domain name registration must be done through a Domain Provider.

  Domain Providers are responsible for supporting their own customers.   Please contact them directly and they will add your .UK domain to their account.  If the Provider has any questions, they can contact Tucows directly.
