Quick questions...

any one know who owns Alarm.ca?



Dan
Alarm.ca is on sale, there is no other way to find the owner, has chosen privacy. I have a Suggested domain if your looking to buy Alarmexpert.ca might fit for what your looking for :)

That's why I got findyour.ca and sellyour.ca

My plans are to turn them into a marketplace for .CA's only. I'm experimenting, exploring and saving $$$ at the moment, but if anyone is interested and has something to bring to the table (money or tech skills or contacts) I'd love to partner up on this.
Why don't you List this on DomainBrothers? Recently they have teamed up with emall.ca and had a blast of 88k USD for Loans.ca as per Dnjournal.

CIRA offers an online Message Delivery Form that allows you to send a message to the Administrative Contact for this Alarm.ca. This will only be the last option to contact the owner directly

I was never too excited with whc.ca support.. there is just something terrible about that

so I thought I'd ask here

I do not have much experience transfering out expired .ca domsins.. and since its not really icann where they have to let you do it for 20-30 days past expiry in most registrars.. can someone confirm how it works for .ca? can I transfer expired .ca from whc.ca ... how many days max?

cheers

https://cira.ca/domain-name-life-cycle

I think its 30 days, is that for netfirms. Maybe @namesilo can tell us the expiring/drop process for their system.

@namesilo you have a lot of hungry Canadians up here. Give us a deal on .ca transfer in and we will
transfer more to 1479. You need more .ca in your system.

You also told me whc.ca doesnt show up as registrar in link manager because they are not icann acreditted. What is difference between registrar being registered or acreditted with icann?

lol
and to think some dude who calls himself whc supervisor told me they offer 0 days past expiry to transfer out domain.... 20 days past expiry to renew on their site.. and .ca domains return to regisrtation pool only after 30 days past expiry.

pathetic

Ines M
Web Hosting Canada
14:15(time wasted)
how many days past expiry can we renew/transfer out .ca domains?
Ines M has joined the chat.
Ines M (05:45:37) : Hi MOMD and thank you for contacting Web Hosting Canada. My name is Ines M. How can I help you today?
MOMD (05:46:09) : wondering about transfers out and renewal of .ca and time we have to do this
Ines M (05:46:42) : can I have your domain name, please?
MOMD (05:46:56) : domainnamehere.ca
Ines M (05:48:11) : Thank you. can you please wait a min while I investigated your demand
Ines M (05:48:16) : ?
MOMD(05:48:17) : yes ty
Ines M (05:55:57) : Thank you for waiting. As I can see your domain name "domainnamehere.ca" will be expired at 2018-03-08. you will receive an invoice for renewing, 45 days before the expiry date. if you want to transfer out your domain, it has to be 5 days before the expiry date.
Ines M (05:56:23) : Is there anything else I can help you with today,MOMD?
MOMD (05:56:26) : 5 days before. Never heard that one before
MOMD (05:56:50) : Where are you physically located at Ines? Canada?
Ines M (05:58:45) : the most important thing is to have a few days before the expiry date because it took time to complete the whole process.
Ines M (05:59:03) : we are located in Montreal
Ines M (05:59:33) : (which is approximately 5 days before the expiry date)
MOMD (05:59:39) : Better check on that 5 day thing, I believe your wrong.

Don't believe everything yousee.ca or hear.lol I doubt that person is even physically located in Canada
that i chatted with.

this is awful.
its like they're telling you anything.. just to get rid of you.

I've seen some bad support before.. but this has to be the worse.

p.s. my "supervisor" guy today told me .ca have special transfer speed that take only 1 day. so you are okay transfer even one day before expiry. lol

when i transfer one out of whc to goodaddy it took like 30 seconds. Once you enter auth code at gaining registrar, never received any more confirmation of transfer request.
I did that, transfer to dadday as I had a buyer wanted to transfer to there and said godaddy or no sale daddy.
So I transfer one to see how long it would take. Be the last one

ok so we're still not sure what happens after .ca expires on whc...... anyone here had domains expire there??? were you able to transfer out? how many days max after expiry?

im prtty sure the guy I talked to was wrong.. cause he even said that for their .com or other extensions they do not allow ANY time after expiry to transfer out.. which we all know is not true.. cause icann obligates all registrars to allow this for some days. usually 30.

With Sibername once you hit expiry date you can renew for 30ish days but you can’t transfer out as they disable the Lock/Unlock and Auth code functions

I don’t believe you can transfer out with NamesPro as well after expiry but you can renew.

Just posted for a point of reference as I have no experience with WHC

well I actually called cira
they said everyone has obligation to give you auth code and unlock it when in grace period.. so around 30 days past expiry.

so they said to just ask them for it. and if they refuse.. call cira after 5 days and they can get involved

That is interesting...never heard that before.

well.. out of all the people in supports who do not know what they're talking about, I guess trusting cira answers should be the logical thing to do.

problem is.. if you do trust them.. and your domains expire and they were wrong.. well.. you may be a bit screwed.

im hoping someone here knows what happens to .ca domains on whc.ca after they expire.. maybe they can comment.

GD is hopeless with .ca names transfer ins. They can't deal with the Registrant info. I still get renewal notices for names I sold to people 4 years ago (that insisted on moving to GD) as they still have me listed as one of the contacts.O_o
I just don't do them anymore without warning people of this and now they just usually use my recommendation for Namespro.

As with virtually all registries, it is up to the registrar to determine how they will implement the expiration policies. CIRA has a pretty unique expiration process. You can find more details at the following links:

https://cira.ca/domain-name-life-cycle
https://cira.ca/be-released-domain-name-registration-policy-rules-and-procedures

We are sorry, but we do not currently have any transfer promotions. We try to keep our prices very low at all times, but we do not typically offer transfer promotions.

You also told me whc.ca doesnt show up as registrar in link manager because they are not icann acreditted. What is difference between registrar being registered or acreditted with icann?

Correct, our DomainLink service only shows registrars that are ICANN-accredited. Many ccTLDs, such as .ca, do not require ICANN-accreditation so our DomainLink service will not currently be able to show the registrar in those cases.

hmmmm.. you mean its up to registries to determine how they implement .ca expiration processes? as far as I know and read in some places, its an obligation for all registrars to allow clinets to get auth code (transfer out) expired domains during grace period.. for extensions such as .com.. org.. net.. info.. and possibly few more

are you sayign this is not so?

and even for .ca, after my chat with cira today, I was told it is not up to registries to decide that. and they'll get involved if any registrar refuses to give auth code during grace period.

There is a difference between "registries" and "registrars". Registries have their own rules. ICANN mandates certain rules from registries, but many ccTLDs (such as .ca) are not overseen by ICANN.

But since dozens of us have registered with WHC's clunky interface, poor support and confusing policies, perhaps offering a transfer special would gain you new clients and thousands of domain names.

I really am sorry, but it is very rare that we offer transfer coupons as our transfer pricing is already so low. We unfortunately cannot offer coupons that result in losing money. Our approach is to offer our best prices upfront, never charge for things most registrars charge for such as lifetime free WHOIS privacy, and not make our customers need to hunt for coupons or special offers.

But basically the .ca registry has expiration policies which is determined by the registrar as to how they are implemented..
