Problems transferring out of GoDaddy

[kektex]

I´m trying to transfer around 9 domains out of GD to namecheap and it´s taking aaages...I started the process yesterday and only 3 domains have made it through.
Now , I check my Namecheap control panel and I get this very weird error in the status : "Unable to retrieve current domain contacts from UWhois"

I´ve never seen this error before. The whois info is correct on the domains and three went through.Very slowly , but they transferred.

Anyone bumped in to this problem before?

Yep. You need to enter a support ticket at NameCheap. Ask them to manually check the whois and proceed with the transfer. I've seen this quite a bit at eNom who NameCheap resell for.

I just received an answer from tech support.Apparently the system will automatically re-check the info.
This is a bit nerve-wracking...
Thanks for your comment stub!

I always ask eNom to manually check the whois and the transfer usually gets moving after that. What make them think another automatic lookup will fare any better than the first?

Dont know...the support guy says he contacted the technical department and that they told him I should wait for the next check.Maybe they found what was wrong.
I´ll just wait and see. I just wish it didn´t take so looooong...I mean, the 3 domains that transferred took almost 24 hours!

That sucks maybe call godaddy?

eh? Most domains take about 5-10 days to transfer.

Does the time depend on the registrar? I also transferred some .NETs to Moniker and it took like 10 hours.But for some reason Moniker is down for me right now :p That´s a first...

I put in a support email with GD last night...let´s see what happens.


Two of the domains have re-started the process...the others should restart soon.
