Question "private registrations transfers", by Mariano A.

What happens if I have private registration enabled in GoDaddy (and also in Gandi)?

The transfer process in Gandi seems to be about to set the owner of my domains to "Domains By Proxy, inc" from the data in whois (Domains by Proxy is GoDaddy's subsidiary for private registrations' data hiding).

Answer, by Joel S.

You must disable your private registration. Otherwise GoDaddy will reject your domain transfer with the following reason;

The request to transfer the following domain name(s) to another registrar has been denied – the domain(s) is currently a Private Registration:

YOURDOMAIN.TLD

If you would still like to transfer the domain(s) to another registrar, you must first cancel your Private Registration(s).

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

To cancel your Private Registration, log in to your Domains By Proxy Account. To safely log in:

1. Go to the DomainsByProxy.com home page and select "My Account."

2. Enter your log in name (or customer number) and password, and click the "Log On" button.

You will then be able to manage your account.
