It’s 2012 and Registrars should provide bulk edit

It’s 2012, and domain Registrars should provide bulk edit features – or risk losing their accreditation.

I kept about 100 ccTLD domains with Domainmonster for the past year; when the time came for renewal, I decided that having waited for a full year for them to implement their bulk edit feature was plenty of time.

In the past, Domainmonster responded to my request to remove the automatic renewal of my domains positively and once I opened a ticket they removed that feature on my behalf, editing all the domains in bulk.

So I decided to move all of my domains to another registrar. The problem: unlocking the domains and generating the authentication codes can’t be done in bulk mode.

Contacting support did not yield any results either; the Domainmonster support cited security issues that would not allow them to modify the lock status or issue en masse authentication codes on my behalf.

It’s manual edit mode for the last time; it’s the last time that Domainmonster will hear from me and my business, while I’m moving the domains to EuroDNS.
