Several years ago I lost a bit of money because I renewed some domains and then transferred them about 3 days later. In other words, the "losing" registrar got to keep my money, and the "winning" registrar didn't add 1 year to the domain's expire date -- so it stayed as if I hadn't paid the renewal at all. I complained about this, and was sent a quote from ICANN policy backing up their claim that renewals made before transfers ARE forfeited.
It's been a while, so this may have changed or I may not be remembering this accurately. I can't find the ICANN rule.
Has anyone experienced this, or have a copy of the renewal forfeit rule? I would like to know the precise rules on this, since I (and everyone else) is evacuating eNom as quickly as possible, and I still have money on the books there.
Thanks!
