    Yes, I recently tried to transfer my domain weeks before their 7 day expiry terms and the host i have been transferred to kept getting denied messages until within the 7 day expiry terms. Now they said that It is not their fault that their systems are denying my transfer and that in order to keep the domain I have to pay them to renew it.

    This is blackmail and nobody likes to be blackmailed. My domain expires Tuesday, does anybody know of any way to get my domain back or anything.

    Also anybody else been blackmailed by them, feel free to post. Any help is appreciated and please do spread the word.

    You might either have to pay or wait for it to expire and get it then. Until then, I would suggest getting a temp domain until you get it back, if your domain is totaldeals.org register totaldealz.org or something, have it redirect till you get it back

    I thought about that, but when it expires, namecheap owns it and they want to charge over 200+ just to get it back. I`m not willing to pay blackmailers 200+ just to get my domain back after they screwed me over.

    $200? Why so expensive?
