Since, Afternic support won't let me know when will I receive my payment, could anyone from the Namepros community let me know how long does it take to receive a payment from Afternic?

It is a very small amount as compared to the sales I read about here, but their attitude is not letting me focus on my work. And as what I do is considered creative work, I need my focus there. Although I try to not get bothered with what Afternic is doing but can't stop thinking what's with the attitude and why won't they let me know despite the fact they can. Especially when their rep says they can let me know. I can't understand why they won't.

So, please those making Afternic sales please let me know an ETA. Thanks in advance!

Good luck getting the swift code from Afternic. They just don't send the funds directly with their bank. They send the funds to another company, and it's this third company who sends the funds to your bank.
Afternic will not give you the swift, and you don't have access to the tthird-partypayment company, who sent you the funds. A nightmare just to make somebody moving to see what happened with the funds. The third company says they sent you the funds, Afternic says they sent the funds to a third company, and you keep waiting with a fool face and without any swift.
I don't know what purpose Swift code serve in your country, But here in India, it's a bank code for international payment processing. Code via which bank from one country route the payment to the bank of another country. So basically, the bank provides it & you have to put up in your bank details at afternic.

Easiest way is receiving via paypal rather than wire transfer.

I mean the code that identifies the bank transfer, like a bank transfer receipt code. A unique code that you request, from the sender bank, to track the bank transfer.

Even if they want to send me the payment after a year or never send it, at least they should inform me! Afternic is not even replying to my emails anymore.

@Joe Styler works for afternic and replies quite frequently here. Be patient you’ll get your money. Definitely not good thing to have to deal with

Did you get the money in the end?
I am concerned to sell through afternic, if they don't pay there seems so option or governing body to complain to.
The horror stories on trustpilot are not reassuring and i personally know from a close friend that Godaddy is ok stealing customer domains because Godaddy prevented him from renewing his domain so they could sell it.

Thanks in advance

trustpilot lol

did you see what people there say about sedo, hugedomains, snapnames, go read and laugh. And if you still need proof that trustpilot is trash, look up epik, they have great reviews 🤣

this is what I imagine when I think of reviewers on there.

Just coming here to help others who were in my situation, Afternic paid out ok and it was all fine. The high price made me think it was a scam, and the Afternic agent did say in the end that it was the highest he saw a .co.uk go for on his watch. So if you are reading this and concerned if Afternic are legit, i got paid just as they explained. It took a while longer (a week longer) to get the cash but they did pay out. Just do a video call with the godaddy agent, they are more than willing to answer all questions. Cheers
