Well, I had a domain registered with TotalNIC (a long time ago) and let a few drop as they were just impossibl to deal with and I couldn't transfer my domains out from their evil clutches. One domain I wanted however, so I paid $10 to transfer it from their CORE system to their new ICANN system (whatever - see other posts here about peopel trying to transfer out of their CORE system and see this message and the posts under that message (http://forum.icann.org/cgi-bin/rpgmessage.cgi?regxfer;3C09A26800000079) re: TotalNIC).
After 60 days, I was excited to finally put in a trasfer request to get that domain out of TotalNIC's hands for good (this is also the only remaining domain I have elsewhere, the others are all in one place finally).
Transfer attempt got this reply from my 'new' registrar:
Dear Customer:
Thank you for your recent transfer request. We want to let you know transfer
order #XXXXXX has been closed.
Below you will find the status of all domains in this order.
The following domain names were not transferred successfully:
Domain Name Rejection Reason
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

If you have any questions please reply to this e-mail.
Thank you for using our domain registration services.
A email sent to TotalNIC asking what the *beep* was up NOW and what the problem was NOW (after all the hassle I went through before) got this:
Dear Sir,
Thank you for your e-mail. This domain name cannot yet be transferred out of the TotalNIC ICANN system as it has not been in the system for 150 days.
So they won't let it transfer out if it hasn't been in the system for 5 months! They suck. Their CORE registrantion version sucks. Their ICANN registration version sucks. These people should be stepped on like bugs.
*my eye now twitches thanks to TotalNIC*
