What do you mean by "No DNS edit option". I have changed NameServers?

So, push is not possible, only transfer out?

I remember last time it took them about 24h I think.

I usually avoid these new unknown registrars that pops up from nowhere with their ridiculous discounts...

 

[bojan1]

correct no push

Maybe it is required to open a ticket and request push? For example, Exabytes has that procedure. But I guess it would take them 10 days for a push

I would be surprised that they would.... since it takes about few days to create account

Domain Privacy - 1-year term - $9.99.

Think I'll pass.

Also, European customers need to pay VAT.

For me, $2.99 turns into $3.56. Not bad for a .com, of course, but eh.

It is true that, as far as I can see, they do not have push to another user, they do definitely allow you to set DNS yourself from their control panel. You select the domain name, and then Details and then NameServers tab. I have mine set to DAN without issue.

It is true that there is not the option, as far as I can see, to set up various other DNS records (I may just not know how to do it).

For transfer you can unlock and have the Auth Code emailed to your contact email. For the 4 or so I have transferred it came quickly. They do, after you transfer, send an email to reject or expedite the transfer with an approval, and for me that took a number of hours, but did work without problem.

The registrations are actually through PromoPeople, even though the controls are through HostPapa account.

I find their web hosting good value and works well, and I have used them for a number of years. I only register domains there when they have a good deal on a few. I prefer registrars that are Afternic and Sedo premium network fast transfer (which they are not as far as I know) and that have their own marketplace. But for cheap enough it is worthwhile. I had zero problems with the ones i transferred out.
