One of the most frustrating characteristics of domain transfers, is the inability to expedite them to the gaining registrar.<\/p>\n
It’s the year 2015, a full decade since EPP \/ authentication codes were introduced to authorize an inter-registrar transfer, and yet, some domain registrars ignore the progress made since.<\/p>\n
NameCheap<\/strong> is one of those registrars, and I’ve used them only coincidentally – when domains I acquire are already with them.<\/p>\n As far as I know, NameCheap is an eNom reseller<\/strong> and as such offer no phone support either.<\/p>\n But the issue I primarily have is when I explicitly authorize (accept) a domain transfer away from NameCheap through their emailed form, only to watch them sit on my authorization for a full 5 days and a half.<\/strong><\/p>\n Indeed, it’s not as if NameCheap doesn’t offer competitive pricing or other perks, and I like their security email notifications for account activity, or the ability to only accept pushes with a key. But all this is negated, in my book, when I cannot speed up a domain transfer out, after I provide my full credentials: password and authorization to proceed.<\/p>\n Perhaps one of the fastest and most efficient domain transfers away is implemented by GoDaddy.<\/p>\n It’s ironic, that the biggest domain registrar in the world is offering a convenient process to lose domains. Then again, customer service is what matters most to any healthy domain business.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" One of the most frustrating characteristics of domain transfers, is the inability to expedite them to the gaining registrar.
