Yep, that's been my experience with GoDaddy as well. I transferred my domains (& client domains) to GoDaddy or DomainSite from NetSol and Register starting a couple years ago to the present to prevent the excessive fees NetSol and Register charge.

Just have to wait until they release the domain (each registrar does it differently; could be up to a year), and re-register it if you don't want to pay the fee. Of course, you risk losing your domain that way, too. :( With Godaddy, if you let it expire and want it back, they say they just charge you the fee to re-register the domain.. 'course, never actually wanted one of the ones I let expire back before, so I can't say for sure. -- Nate Carlson <natecars at real-time.com> | Phone : (952)943-8700 http://www.real-time.com | Fax : (952)943-8500 _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota http://www.mn-linux.org tclug-list at mn-linux.org https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota http://www.mn-linux.org tclug-list at mn-linux.org https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list
