It is a long story that I will share at a later time, but I have the need to transfer out quite a few domains that are expiring at a registrar I am moving away from.
My concerns are over the timing...for example, how long before the expire date should I start the transfer? I am worried the names might be caught in 'limbo' and/or the losing registrar will somehow interfere in the transfer to the winning registrar.
I know the rule of thumb is 5 days for a transfer, but is a name safe once the transfer has been initiated? In this case, I am sure an expedited transfer will be blocked by the losing registrar.
As long as I've been in this game, this has never been a issue for me...I guess I've been fortunate (and lucky) to have not experienced this situation yet. Thanks for your advice/information.
