My transfer failed

[Rudy]

Hey Folks,
I just tried to transfer a domain from GoDaddy to Namecheap and it failed. I had the domain unlocked, AND I had the EPP code correct.

The reason I got back from Namecheap was something about the registered email address on file did not return an email.

What gives?

Did you complete all the processes required? http://www.namecheap.com/learn/transfer-your-domain/transfer-process.asp

Sounds like you didn't complete the authorization email approving the transfer

The other thing that might cause a problem with Godaddy is if you changed the Registrant information in less than 60 days. If you didn't and had the domain more than 60 days, then check the email addresses listed in the contacts and make sure they are valid.

I guess there might be an issue with your admin contact address which is retrieved from the Whois details.. I think you should just recheck it and then try the transfer..

then follow this instructions very carefully.

Domain Transfer Process
Domain transferring is a multi-step but easy process. The steps involved are described below.

* Step 1: User adds the domains that needs to be transferred and completes checkout
* Step 2: If EPP Key (Authorization Key) is required, then an email with EPP request is sent. You can also enter the EPP key by going to My Account > Manager Transfers and clicking on the domain just after completing the order without waiting. (To obtain an EPP key, please contact your current registrar.)
* Step 3: If Step 2 is completed or not required, then the domain is submitted for transfer.
* Step 4: An email containing a link is sent to 'Administrator Email' for the domain.
* Step 5: If user click on the link and approves the transfer, the domain name is transferred to Us.
* Step 6: If the domain named is 'locked' at the losing registrar, the registrar lock should be removed before proceeding with the transfer. An email is sent if the lock needs to be removed.
* Step 7: When the domain is unlocked, the transfer completes successfully.
