Does anyone here have recent experience with dot com domain transfers between NZ providers? I started one Sunday night, it still is showing as transferring.

It is unlocked. It's holding up DNS Changes we really need to make, and I am unsure if there is anything I can contact the losing provider about in case they are holding the process up.

If it's entirely automated and it didn't indicate any issues at the time of the transfer, I assume there is nothing that can be done.

LSP is Domainz, incoming is 1stdomains.

Cheers

.com take 7 days to transfer. Something about ICANN set that timeframe in case there is a dispute and it can be stopped.

99% of the time it happens right on the 7th day.

If you made any changes prior to the move you are prevented to move for 30 days.

i.e. change address or technical contact etc.

It can be a very long a frustrating experience.

I dont think you can change the name servers without starting the 30 day clock again.

does the domain (website and emails) work in the 7 days it takes to transfer?

That's entirely down to the DNS arrangements. Registration and DNS are quite separate, so presumably yes.

In fact if the transfer of registrar doesn't change the delegated NS, literally nothing operationally will change at all.

To hijack my own thread, when transferring .co.nz domains from someone like AMAZON for example, to a NZ registrar, is the timeframe for that instant as it's the .co.nz registrar rules that apply, or can I expect a lengthy wait for that too?

Should be pretty quick, if they're directly talking to the NZRS it synchronises multiple times a day.

Yes, to confirm from Amazon to 1stdomains on a .co.nz domain was instant as it would be from nz to nz registrar.

One less headache for this week.
