I never even try it

Thanks for your reply! I gave it a try two times, each 1 month at a time, effect was 0 last time.

Anyone else having problems uploading names by CSV file? I tried both "Update" and "Replace" using the Afternic file from my Atom account, but nothing is updated.

I've just uploaded a CSV now and all seems to be working fine here.

Mine is a custom file though created by my own script, have you checked that the Atom-created Afternic file columns match the columns in the example template that Afternic supply?

Thanks. Yes, maybe it is an issue with the Atom file. I will take a look.

I've checked that one for you and it looks okay.

So I'm guessing we still can't pay off LTO's in one lump payment? Like I have 10 out of 12 payments remaining on a name, I still have to go one by one paying 10 separate payments? @GoDaddy I feel like this is a simple fix considering the other marketplaces have had this feature for a while now. Can you look into adding that?

I’ve had buyers pay off early and it says you can do that here:

• Early payoff
  • If you wish to have full control of the domain earlier than your originally contracted lease you can complete payment for any remaining installments at any time.

Thanks JB - I'm trying to see if you can do it in 1 payment (combine all remaining installments). Right now you can pay off early, but you have to pay 10 separate payments (go through checkout 10 separate times for each invidividual monthly payment - slowly 1 by 1)
