Taken Usernames

[Josh]

We own a business and are interested in setting up a Twitter account
in the name of our business. We also own the copyright for this name.
Unfortunately the name has been taken. However, the account has been
inactive for the last 6 months. What are the steps we need to go
through to get this user name?

Email user...@twitter.com (that's actually "username" not the
username you're after) with the details.

Josh,
Check out our help article on user names [1]. If you own the trademark, please submit a ticket through the support site and explain your situation. They have a 10 day backlog so please be patient.
