I bought a domain name from Godaddy about 5 hours ago and I downloaded and kept its legal receipt in my PC.
Two hours later I went to their site to verify if it was listed with my other domains.
It was not !!!
I found it very strange.
One hour ago, I received an email saying:
"Could not register xxxxxx.xxx.
This is an error message we received from the registry: Domain failed availability check: Domain cannot be registered because another domain was found in a restricted status.
Let's check out why this happened and try to fix the problem. But if we can not register the domain yet, we'll make a refund (please wait one business day)."
Then I investigated about it in the whois.icann.org site.
It gives this info:
Important Dates
Updated Date: 2019-06-01
Created Date: 2014-04-02
Registry Expiry Date: 2019-04-02
If it was expired two months ago, wouldn't it be available for selling ?
Isn't Godady's responsibility to check out every domain name request before selling it ?
What should I do to defend my rights ?
