Problems, Bugs and Fixes at Afternic - Report Problems Here

Spaceship Spaceship
Watch
I suggest a new thread titled Problems, Bugs and Fixes at Afternic - Report Problems Here. Then we can all list our issues so Afternic have to fix them. These Afternic probs have been repeatedly flagged up across numerous threads on here over a period of time, including the need for 2FA. Godaddy own Afternic and have the resources and motivation to fix it - this risky mess is unacceptable and reflects badly on their brand.

For info, Afternic keep reverting some of my domains to "In Review" status for no reason, and I only know that if I log in there to check on them. Until I then ask support to take them out of Review they are not listed for sale and will not sell at Afternic.

@Joe Styler When can we expect Godaddy to take action on Afternic, including implementing 2FA?

Fast transfer confirmations. Are no more processed? Via @namesilo if that matters. Submitted a set of domains on Sunday, got namesilo e-mail and clicked approve. Usual routine. Today, after 30+ hours, afternic still says Fast Tranfer: No (Opt-in Required). Anybody else experienced this?

Thank you for fixing it! I can confirm that pending domains are processed - all are now shown as fast transfer enabled on afternic end.

When I login to Afternic it always feels like I'm timetravelling back to the 90's/00's. So I'm really wondering how it's possible that Afternic doesn't have a responsive website in this day and age. The site is practically unusable on mobile.

To a degree SEDO has the same problem, but at least they tried with a semi-responsive design. When you compare it to e.g. DAN though, it's a world of difference.

I do not know if it has been discussed in the thread before, but a little week ago I logged in to my afternic account and discovered that I had 3 offers and a price request which had all expired and I have never received an email from afternic about any of them - I sent an email to their sales department and asked if they did not send email when a offer came up on a name but they have not replied. Are there others who have experienced the same?

Yes mine expired like 6 days past and no email .It came with a low offer which I countered.
Nothing about afternic surprises me anymore.🤔

Today I can't delete any of my in review domains. Yesterday I did some domain transfers and all of them went to in review status. I wanted to re-list them, but when I click the delete button nothing happens.

This is not happening for the first time. I'm amazed how Afternic treats us with not listening to our complaints at all.

Actually is does not delete anything. Both active and in review domains cannot be deleted at this time :(

Redirect from afternic.com to www. afternic.com doesn't work anymore (network timeout). I thought Afternic was down for an entire day and later realized it's only the redirect that is broken.

Also, pasting multiple domains into the textarea doesn't work anymore, which is very annoying.

If you paste multiple domains like
domain1.com
domain2.com
domain3.com

the line breaks are ignored and all domains are concatenated into a single line like
domain1.comdomain2.comdomain3.com

Get email from Afternic notifying of a price inquiry, asking me to update buy it now and floor price. However, no access to any information about the person whom placed the bid or offer on the domain is available via Afternic domain admin. Why not?

It seems that someone has the privilege and was able to delete other’s domains in bulk and add to his or her Afternic account without the verification from the staff at Afternic?

In my memory,
Rick Latona was one of this inside club.

When one ordinary user uploads a list with domains already existed,
he gets an insite duplication existed Notification, but not emails.
and his domains will not override the existed domains.


A small suggestion,
When your domains were deleted from Afternic,
There should be an email notification,
Or at least a daily email notification,
Not just disappeared silently.

If the domain is for sale on Afternic it should show up on GoDaddy as a buy now if you priced it. If you did not price it then it should show up on the auction as a make offer. There are some caveats. Is that the correct spelling of your domain that you want me to check? cl-ear dot com?

I agree. While going through my list at afternic against Dan, I noticed that one of my domains listed since 2018 and renewed till 2023 was silently moved from my account to another afternic account. No notification whatsoever. I had to contact support before it was relisted in my afternic account

Anyone else having issues logging into Afternic this morning/afternoon? Or a slower-than-usual control panel?

Yes, several days. Long waiting time, often resulting in an error "504 gateway timeout". But not constantly.

Everything is bad about Afternic. Same issues for years, and the bugs keep piling up. I spend/waste the majority of my time trying to keep up with Afternic bugs and issues. The same issues are reported hundreds of times, and nothing gets fixed. GoDaddy Dashboard is also full of issues. Reported for years, and nothing is fixed. I can write a book about how bad GoDaddy and Afternic are. Unfortunately, they have a good distribution network. Other than that, I'm ready to pay double the renewal fees and the commission rate, just not to use GoDaddy & Afternic.

There is a very critical issue with the Afternic platform that needs to be addressed immediately!
