no response and no domain transfer
8/10/2008 16:53
I opened an account with dynadot.com to have a domain pushed from another account.   I never received any account confirmatio from dynadot.com and the domain was never transferred.  I then submitted a message requesting the status of the transfer and  I never received a response to that message either and now it doesn't appear in my message outbox.  

How do you determine the status of a domain transfer?

m_t_mobie_us:  The domain has been transferred into your account.  

a_m_jeddah_sa:  If you are transferring a domain away from Dynadot, your new Registrar will send you emails confirming the transfer, not Dynadot.  

To transfer your domains away from Dynadot, please follow these steps:

How do I transfer my domain away from Dynadot?

We're sorry to see your domain go! There are a few things you should do to prepare your domain to be transferred - and you should do this before starting your transfer order at your new registrar.

Prep Steps:

  1. Make sure your domain is older than 60 days, i.e. has been registered longer than 60 days and has not been transferred within the last 60 days.
  2. Make sure your domain is not about to expire. You can check its expiration date on our "Manage Domains" page. Your transfer may still go through even if it expires during the process, but this is not guaranteed, so we recommend starting the transfer process at least 2 weeks before the domain's expiration date.
  3. Double check that your Whois email address is accurate and accessible. Your new registrar may send email there to confirm the transfer. If it is not correct, you should update your Whois email. If you are using our privacy service, we will forward the email to your account email.
  4. If the domain is purchased from our Aftermarket, please wait until the Auction Lock or Buy Lock ends.


Now, if the domain is ready to be transferred, please follow these steps to find the authorization code:

  1. On "Manage Domains" page, click on the domain name you want to transfer (it should be a link).
  2. Scroll down to the "Authorization Code" section.
    1. If your domain is transfer locked, press "Unlock Account" to unlock your account first.
    2. Once your account is unlocked, press the "Unlock" button to unlock your domain.
  3. The authorization code which is a unique string of random letters and numbers will now be displayed in the "Authorization Code" section.
  4. Make sure you leave your domain unlocked during the transfer process; however, we recommend locking your account again to ensure its security.
  5. Now you can provide this authorization code to your new registrar to initiate the transfer.
  6. After the transfer is initiated, it may take some time for our system to be notified. Once it is, a transfer away order will be created and the "Transfer Away" email will be sent to you for confirmation.


Exception:

.UK transfer is different with most transfers. Find out how to transfer your .UK domain away.
