anyone faced this kind of errors
Dear alregister inc,

The transfer of example.COM from GoDaddy.com to another registrar could not be completed for the following reason(s):

Express written objection to the transfer from the Transfer Contact. (e.g. - email, fax, paper document or other processes by which the Transfer Contact has expressly and voluntarily objected through opt-in means).

If you believe that this domain name does not fit the situation described above, please contact us at http://www.godaddy.com/gdshop/support.asp for assistance.

Regards,

3 domains in no 1 week.

what does it mean anyway? (il drop GD an email and ask) just wondering if anyone else getting this issue?

transfering to eNom jfyi.

Bashar, I get that all the time when I forget about Godaddy's 60 day rule. It means the domain is locked because of their 60 day rule which comes into play ANY time you make a change to the registrant information.

If for example the domain has privacy, GoDaddy recommend that you release the privacy before transferring the domain. This automatically starts the 60 day clock ticking again. So you can't transfer the domain for another 60 days. You can't even push it to another GoDaddy account either.

It's infuriating I know, but that's just part of the cost of doing business with GoDaddy. You either love them or hate them. I think for someone doing a lot of business buying and selling names with a reasonably large portfolio, they're not the wisest choice (which was why I was asking about Enom and Enom Resellers in another thread). The control/admin panel can be infuriatingly slow at times as well, and the checkout will drive you completely nuts :(

Well i hope that answers your question. It's most likely the problem.

You either love them or hate them.

And you must be completely *BLOND* to love them. They have this 60-days rule and pushing it wherever possible, hoping that you'll lose your patience and renew with them instead of transferring out. These are shady business practices to say the least. Even more - the way I've heard (from a VERY reputable source (one of the registrar's CEO)) in the last ICANN meeting in Luxembourg, other registrars pointed out this to GD that his 60-days policy does not comply with ICANN inter-registrar transfer policy and GD promised to 'look into this'. It looks like they are looking untill now... :(

You still have ICANN to complain to...

I keep my mouth shut about GD TOS - perhaps the most humilating ones in the industry.

All above is why I am currently moving out of GD (1 domain and 52 days to go).

Good luck, Community Liaison!!!

What? Your mouth and GD's TOS? :)

I just transfered a domain for the first time with godaddy...went very smoothly...heh heh

thing is the 60 days change account is done, yet the domain aren't being transfered...

thats what their support said too, best thing is to wait and see maybe another 30 days or so :)

I think NOW you have a perfect case for ICANN.

Are your REALLY sure? Did you check the whois to see when they were last updated? EVERY change of the REGISTRANT info will cause the clock to start ticking. I've been caught out by that too.

If the dates checkout ok, then it's probably only a few days before you could try again.

I know it's silly, but are you sure you've unlocked the domains?

ofcourse the domains weren't locked :D

and the last update status changes whenever you do any change to nameservers or lock/unlock so can't confirm now since its set to 1st of feb (when i re-unlocked them again)

its some customer's domains and he said it been more than 60 days since he bought them and got em transfered into new account of his at GD

so only time can tell :)

No, Bashar. The clocks start ticking anew only whenever you modify registrant info (whatever: name, address, email, phone number).

Removing whois protection, for example, is considered registrant's change too. And you can't transfer away while it's on.

Bashar. Perhaps your client inadvertantly updated the registrant info (in the last 60 days) after he moved the domain to GoDaddy and doesn't recall doing it. I've done that too :( Any minor change will trigger it.

oh i see! thats a thing didnt know about in godaddy's policies

i just changed the registrant email address seems it ticked it :)

That's it! :)

I've transferred 2 domains last month and 1 last week to NameCheap without any problems. 2 weeks prior to transferring the first 2 domains, I changed my email and each time before I transfer, I will disable the whois protection. No 60 days rule. Domain transferred within 5-6 days.

I don't think it is due to the disabling of the whois protection.

I have transferred a few domain names I have sold without any problems.

That's strange alvinch. I've seen several posts which state categorically that disabling domainsbyproxy initiates GoDaddy's 60-day hold rule because the registrant infor has changed.

I did not think the rule has nothing to do with their proxy service
