    5 days? I think that is normal for transfers. I just went though it in godaddy. It wasn't their fault and am blaming 1and1.com for all this. I paid godaddy to move two domains I had in 1and1.com and it took 7 days to do it on one domain. I had one that wasn't due until next month and it took 5 days. No problem. The other one was due the 20th and they waited an extra day so they could bill me in 1and1.com. I noticed this morning they billed me $17.98 for both domains though paypal and I was furious. I called them and they said it was the way they do it. I would not buy domains from them or recomend them for anything. When I bought a site along time ago, the domain was registered from them and was told that it was real hard to move it to another registar. They were right. I am glad I moved my domains to godaddy except it cost me more money on these.

    Things happen, just wait patiently. I just transferred 10 domains between GoDaddy and Namecheap. 8 were transferred within few days period, 1 was delayed 2 days, and the other had some error message so I had to reinitialize. Sometimes it is just a pain. Nothing to stress about.
