Ive just had one of my domain names unlocked by my current web host so that i can move it to my UKReg account. Ive tried using the transfer domain option in UKReg but it doesnt work (as yet). Does it take a while for the unlock to filter through? Or do i need to do something else?
Is there any way of confirming if the domain has been uplocked (ie via whois - the current status is showing as: Status: REGISTRAR-LOCK )? Obviously im trying to transfer using the UKReg transfer request but it is still currently telling me that "The domain is not transferable to UKReg".
Yup its still @ REGISTRAR-LOCK at the moment - so i need to wait for that to change before i can put in the request to UKReg... If i dont do the transfer once it is unlocked, will it revert back to be locked after a certain period of time?
If we're talking about a .com domain name here, unlocking and social contact changes are still processed every 12AM and 12PM by the Verisign COM NET Registry. It's DNS changes that they do at least 5 minutes upon receipt of it from the sponsoring registrar. Just do something productive while waiting for that to take effect.
