And also for .co backorders. Good offer. Unfortunately it's SAV.

What is the issue with SAV?

What is the issue with SAV?

A lot. They're cheap but their services are buggy. Transfers not working. Domains disappearing, domain settings miraculously changing, and the list goes on.

Check out the SAV thread for a full readup.

Namesilo has a 2.49 offer, well worth the extra 1.50.

Neustar doesn't set 60 day lock, should work...

So I asked namespro.ca about this and here is what they said:

"A domain can only be transferred once every 60 days. That is, if you transfer a domain from one registrar to another, you can transfer it again after 60 days."

Are they lying to me?

Is Neustar the registry that operates the .CO TLD?

Is Neustar the registry that operates the .CO TLD?

Yes.
And if your current registrar is not competent - this is another story.

Just try to transfer...
Don't ask anybody.

"A domain can only be transferred once every 60 days. That is, if you transfer a domain from one registrar to another, you can transfer it again after 60 days."

This statement is wrong a few years already.
And depends only on the corresponding registry and optionally on the losing registrar (for example, Dynadot doesn't prevent the outgoing transfers regardless of when initiated).

i tried, but i cant seem to find the option to transfer out anywhere, only transfer in :/ otherwise i wouldve just transferred out based on what you told me.

this makes me angry

do you know where i should look to find this stuff in writing, so that i can point it out to them and hold them accountable?

Disable TransferLock in your control panel.
You may also disable Privacy.
Find AUTH codes and then start the domain transfer at 1and1...

p.s. I don't know your Canadian registrar, never used it.

Looks that your registrar works via tickets only...

i have emailed them, so i have their support email address: [email protected]

i sent them an email and they said in their response that they cannot transfer it for 60 days if it has already been transferred... :/

i will try unlocking the domains to see if that helps

 

[Jurgen Wolf]

If status OK in WHOIS - then your domains are unlocked already, so just AUTH codes are needed.

i really do not wish to unlock the privacy stuff because they are domains used for a business :/

on the other hand, i am not even sure the domains are locked. additionally, i cant seem to figure out how to unlock domains on their platform if they are locked.

i have sent them another email and i sent neustar an email asking for help

i did find the registrar's support article on unlocking domains there to retrieve auth code:

60 day policy by ICANN is deprecated since Dec'2016 (according to their current IRTP).
Nowadays it is fully optional for registries (WHOIS status: serverTransferProhibited) and for registrars (to block the transfer-outs or not).
And it is for gTLDs only. .CO is NOT gTLD, but ccTLD of Colombia.

TransferLock is visible in WHOIS as clientTransferProhibited status.

Link to this article was posted by me above, you missed it.

Thanks so much Jurgen <333 I will bring this to their attention.

By reading the registar's support article, I learned that the only way to unlock is by emailing them and requesting this... So this is what I have done. Now we wait.

After this experience, I certainly have nothing good to say about this registrar. Namepros.ca should be avoided like cancer.

I just edited my post #37, so read it again...
And check WHOIS for your domains...
