I would recommend that you use a different registrar (better service, nicer interface, less cost).
If you transfer a domain to another registrar, you will have to pay for another year, but that gets added to the current expiration. You generally don't want to do a transfer if the domain is about to expire in the next 60 days. I use NameCheap (https://www.namecheap.com/domains/transfer.aspx) and they are both good and inexpensive. It is entirely OK to list yourself for all contacts. The process for changing "Registrant Organization" can be a real pain. See https://whois.icann.org/en/lookup?name=j3.org for info on your domain registration. ~ Greg Greg Rundlett https://eQuality-Tech.com https://freephile.org On Wed, Aug 9, 2017 at 12:57 PM, Tyson Sawyer <ty...@j3.org> wrote: > I hold a couple of domains.
