updating phone number for domains = 60 day lock?

[DomainsInc]

i want to update the phone number for all my domains but would that result in them being locked for 60 days? that just won't work well for me if thats the case. is there any way around this?

I had read somewhere that only changing first name, last name or organization name will lock the domain, but I'm not sure if it's true.

I read somewhere that every time you log in, GoDaddy adds a 60 day lock

Normally the system will tell you if your action is going to result in a 60-day lock.
Not sure how it behaves with a bulk update, try with one domain.

I updated my mailing address on GoDaddy, and the 60-day lock is only half over. No, there was no notification prior.

I've still been able to sell domains during this time (through Sedo) doing a push. Someone informed me elsewhere on DNForum that, in the event a transfer is needed, a complaint can make it happen; but I haven't tested that myself.

If you expect people to contact you by phone and think that's a worthwhile thing to have, you might want to update the information anyway. If I were a buyer, I doubt I'd cancel a sale simply because the domain would have to remain registered at GoDaddy for less than 60 days. Most buyers are more familiar with GoDaddy than any other registrars anyway. Maybe someone else can see a bigger disadvantage. (That's not to say the registrar lock isn't annoying.)

if you even think about changing your phone number, it's a 60 day lock....ound:

i will never register a even free domain at GD. I rather pay 10 bucks to be at NAMECHEAP

That's why GD has 24/7 support to lock your domains from transfer! :lol:
