2 domains free for the taking
I have a pair of domains that I'm not doing anything with. Actually got them from someone else a few years ago. They're about ready to expire, registered with GoDaddy and I'm not going to use them.
They're free for the taking. I make this offer with the assumption that I can transfer them to another GoDaddy client. If I can't, I'm just going to let them expire.
STUDENT-LOAN-FAQ.INFO That expires on Jan 20th.
CAR-REMOTE-STARTERS.COM That expires on Feb 5th.

Nice telling your paying customer that.
Agreed. That's why I'm trying to get rid of them. I was going to let them expire since I don;t use and/or need them but I thought I would put them up for grabs.
I;m trying to get the other domains moved today but I;m within the 30 day limit so I think I;m going to be stuck with paying for yet another year before I can move them.
I've always been successful as long as I begin the transfer within 7 days of expiry.
I think godaddy has 30. Working on the eurodns domains first. I've had personal experience with their customer service department. Tried to renew domains with them a few years ago but their website was broken. Took them a few days to fix the issue. By then my domains had already expired. Had to fight with them for not having to pay the $80 late fee for each domain.
edit: the eurodns ones are now pending. It's nice having some money to get this stuff done.
It's a myth I just transferred out some domains of Godaddy, which has less than 30 days remaining.
I just had an issue with internet.bs so I;m waiting for a response from them until I move the rest over.
edit: Doesn't a transfer normally tack on a year to the registration time period? Only added on 2-3 months.
Yes the transfer includes 1 year added to the reg date. I moved 8 domains from GD to Internet.bs. The rest I left behind to expire. Surprisingly no issues, the move was done within the same day.
Internet.bs got back to me. They do tack on a year to a transfer for most *.tld's when transfered. They don't do it for *.be's though.
Probably *.tld rules I would assume. Not a biggie.
Ahh I see - I don't have any cctld's. Good to know though.
I just have them because they were free originally. Had a bunch but let many of them drop. Only two left and one of them just forwards to another domain now.
Just as an FYI, they have a 99 cent coupon currently for a transfer. Was from a week ago but still appears to be current:
Around 15th of December I transfered the last domain I had on GoDaddy to InternetBS.
I started the trasfert at -8 days to expire date and finished at -1 day to expire date.
Time to use and abuse
Only one per account.
The transfer for the *.us domain which I renewed in early December is not going through. No error though. 60 day rule on that maybe.
@drmike cheers for the coupon; 62 pence to save my last ohnodaddy, I'm free! Haha! Fsck you Bob!
DAMN! I needed that like one month ago.
The domains are still available in case anyone is paying attention.
Hey drmike, I would be interested in these. Still have them?
@zacho Rather give them to an active member but since no one wants them....
