DNF$: 28 | How can I get my names back? Stupid as I am, I registered some 20 names with dodora.com.
Now, one of them has expired, and it is a three-letter .net.
I can't change them, I get no replies from the company.
Is there any way I can move all my domains from them to another registrar? The admin-info etc. is correct, so it should be no problem proving that I am the owner.
I need this to happen fast, if not my domain may disappear totally... :( |

Country: | Re: How can I get my names back? Hi,
You can't transfer a domain if it is expired, most registrars will not let you transfer the domain if it is going to expire within the next 30 days.
You will have to renew the expired domain with the current registrar then move it.
You shouldn't have a problem transferring the other domains unless they are about to expire as you are the admin contact.
Good luck, hope you get a response from your registrar

DNF$: 4,568 Location: Kansas City | Re: How can I get my names back? I have a suggestion, transfer them all to me. I will hold them for you. Only kidding but if you let a three letter domain expire that is your own fault not the providers. And as stated you need to re-register them if you have less than thirty days left on your current ownership, then transfer. But I will still, take them off your hands.

Country: | Re: How can I get my names back? An expired domain typically can't be transferred to another registrar.
You should renew it asap before it goes into the redemption period - once that happens, you'll be looking at around $200+ to get it - and that's assuming the registrar chooses to offer you that option.
Renew it RIGHT NOW (and any others expiring soon), then deal with the transfer out issue afterwords ...

DNF$: 3,323 | Re: How can I get my names back? He probably can't. Dodora is a basket case.
Dodora had a $100K judgment against it in Texas. The plaintiff levied upon Dodora's registrar operation, and entered into a contract with Directi to manage Dodora's registrar operation. That worked fine for a couple of months until Dodora brought a separate action against Directi in Massachusetts, and has temporarily regained control of its registrar operation. In the meantime, all sorts of nutty things have been happening to domain names there.

There doesn't appear to be much at radiostar.com - perhaps you should buy it d
Or perhaps become DomainStar - intuitive and DomainStar.com is available for sale on Sedo ..

Somewhere I recall reading something about how ICANN has a procedure in place for dealing with financially troubled registrars - perhaps John or someone can find more ... or perhaps it was just my imagination running wild :undecided
A tactic that may be effective in allowing to maintain "ownership" for the timebeing is to sue the registrar and/or other parties...
While that obviously may prompt some action to be taken, it more importantly will allow a court injuction to be sought blocking the deletion the of the domain(s), etc.
