Yeah, I've heard a lot of horror stories about them. I opted to stay away. I just use namecheap.com and hostgator.com

I had that EXACT same problem with them. I changed my nameservers myself. After 48 hours, it didn't work.

Well, nowhere in the directions did it say you had to UNlock the domain name. At my old domain registrar, I never had to unlock a domain name.

I think that is a basic question their support should to know to ask about!

The support guy at my web host went in and did it for me. I changed my password for him before he went in and then changed it again after he was done.

It took WAAAAY too long to do something that is really simple to do with dollardomainname.com, which has terrible support but at least makes their system so easy to use that you don't need to call them.

I've never had a problem with their domains, but their hosting absolutely stinks. I had to move several sites because it didn't play nice with certain scripts (like ZenCart). They have major database issues which they refuse to fix. They say it's because of "security reasons", but really it's just because they don't want to deal with it.

One of these days they are going to wake up and realize how many real business owners they are losing just because they have to do things their way.

Karadawn,
Wait till you get acused of spam, legit or not. Look at their terms. $200 I'm not alone. Google it. Nuff said.
