    I bought this package today for myself, but as it turns out they wont let me add my previously hosted domains (with other dreamhost account) to new one. So this plan is useless for me.

    Its brand new (bought today) plan - it comes with FREE DOMAIN registration and its unused.

    You get everything of what you would get buying it from dreamhost.

    I tried to get refund - but I paid by Paypal and those payments are non-refundable. So I have to use it or lose it.

    There is no trick - its just wrong buy and I can't get refund.

    I can answer any questions you have.

    Thanks

    You can't directly transfer a domain hosted on one dreamhost account to another. But there's a work around if you want to try it.

    Backup your site, then set your DNS to point to any other host and delete the account on your first dreamhost account. After a reasonable time (maybe a day or so for DNS propagation) - you can then set up the website on the new hosting account - and change back the DNS to point to the dreamhost nameservers.

    I did this for 2 sites about 6 months ago - it worked. The important thing is that the old website sub account HAS to be deleted and the domain pointing elsewhere, otherwise you can't get the new one set up.

    Best wishes.
