I am looking to renew a few .mobi names and want the best price..I'm looking to transfer I guess....Please let me know if you have found any really good deals (registrar wise) to transfer your .mobi

Thanks.

I transfered all my .mobi domains to GoDaddy with a 20% coupon code (if your order is bigger than 50 usd). Its the best price I could find for transfers ($ 12.19). Last week, the code was BTPS7. If it changes i will update the actual coupon codes on http://www.dotmobiz.com/cheapest.shtml

Please click the affiliate links to GoDaddy on dotMobiz if you want to enter GoDaddy. It costs you nothing, but could give me a commission...

Thanks...Problem is most of my .mobis are at godaddy.

WEBecri · Sep 17, 2008

The 20% code is for domains at GoDaddy too. I've tested it for my domains at GoDaddy and it worked for me

They have a .mobi renewal discount at the moment. Very cheap...

Thanks. I will give it a shot.

I have asked my godaddy account rep for the best rate as well. I am going to see what he comes up with.

good luck, could you share the answer of your rep with us here??? Just curious...

Sure thing. I will let you know what answer I get.

I just renewed some at GoDaddy and the code you gave did not work but i was only charged $9.95 each which i was happy with.

Onward · Sep 24, 2008

Yes, I got the 9.95 rate as well..

9888 · Sep 24, 2008

...but it seems they dont offer that rate for transfers...they are still at $14 or so...pity, as i would transfer a 100 or so to them if they were offering the $9.99 price on transfers!

WEBecri · Sep 24, 2008

About the link & code from dotMobiz.com: it only applies if you have an order of more than $ 50. It worked fine for me...

Me too, I would transfer 200 .mobi domains to GoDaddy if the transfer price is 9.99.

Get an account rep...they can give you the lower rate for transfers.

how did you get this rate - I'm on with godaddy now and they won't give it to me

you're the 2nd person that got this 9.95 rate. i'm on with godaddy now and they won't give it to me

GoDaddy have a special on .mobi renewals of $9.99 plus 20c ICAAN fee...
it is on their site, so i imagine it is available to everyone, it should show as the price at checkout.

domaingirl · Sep 24, 2008

You're right that it's available to everyone, but apparently, it's only for renewals, not for transfers. I could only get 20% discount on transfer.

9888 · Sep 24, 2008

I currently have a support request in asking if they will give me the $9.99 price for transfers, if so i will transfer 100 or so to them...fingers crossed, as it is a big saving!

domaingirl · Sep 24, 2008

Let me know what happens, but I don't have time to wait too long. My domains expire on the 26th. And I'm letting about 50 drop in any event. Want them cheap?

9888 · Sep 25, 2008

Does not look like GoDaddy want people transferring their .mobi's in!

"Thank you for contacting online support.

Unfortunately, .MOBI domain transfers are currently $14.99 per domain. We cannot extend the current .MOBI pricing of $7.99 new domain purchases towards the transfer of existing domains. We do apologize if this may cause any inconvenience.

Please let us know if we can help you in any other way."

Why is it that whenever I contact them they seem to get the story a little bit wrong...I was asking for the $9.99 renewal price not the $7.99 special on new registrations, but I imagine the story would still be the same.

I was able to use the 20% coupon for the transfers so that probably takes it down to about $12.

For this 20% coupon code visit www.dotmobiz.com/cheapest.shtml

Moniker also has an affordable rate for transfers. I pay 12.99 usd. But with the 20% coupon code of GoDadday (if you have more than $ 50), they are the cheapest with 12.19.

Good luck
