fore its renewal date!
That was my experience this week (April 2021). When I called, the rep said that "it's policy". Offered a refund....and when I got the email acknowledging the refund (24-hours later)....there was a $10 deduction. For what, I don't know.
So....ticked off, I initiated a transfer of the domain to Godaddy. Via chat. A half-hour later, I get the EPP Code and told that the domain is unlocked. Go to Godaddy...but...the EPP Code doesn't work. Go back to Register.com again....a 40-minute wait....and the rep says that the EPP Code is being emailed. Email comes with the....same code. Back to Godaddy. It doesn't work. Back to Register.com and another 45-minute wait on chat (even though the chat-window says I'm next in que and an approximate 30-second wait - sure, hah!). Demand a new EPP Code...and finally get one and it works.
I should be charging Register.com the $10 for time wasted.
They have become a HORRIBLE company. Find another, if you value your time...
