Hi,
I could not find my original post where I said Godaddy have paid me for a domain which had not yet been transferred to GoDaddy yet. But after they paid they frantically started sending me their Transaction Codes and it took approx another week before the domain actually got transferred. I released it immediately from it's current registrar. So that part of the transfer only took, what? 5 minutes max.
It's now happened again with a second domain in less than 1 month. They've paid me but the domain is still sitting in my account at another registrar. What the heck is going on with them. And I'm glad I'm on the receiving end of the transaction. I wonder what those poor frantic buyers are thinking having to accept this unacceptable situation.
My guess is they set a release date for the funds, and haven't bothered to check that the domain has been actually received before making payment. Has anyone else experience this phenomena?
GoDaddy are the last registrar/auction house you would have expected this from. It makes you wonder just how secure their systems are?
