oh hell....oooooo.......well I tried to transfer it and now this is what I get from my new registrar
***it seems that your current host doesn't want to release your account, here is there contact info, if you would like to contact them and ask them why, also they have a lock on your account that they just placed there within the last couple of days. It won't transfer until they release it**
how can they do this.....they don't answer the phone....i've emailed and asked nicely....I had them unlock my domain a year ago and now they do this?? is this legal????
