Tried putting through a transfer today for a .ca, and after getting funky errors from RCL and RWI, called support and learned that it's a CIRA error, and that since the existing name doesn't have a phone number listed (don't ask me why they let it in the first place), CIRA won't allow a transfer to go through (due to lack of information, yada)...
IMO, the logic of this organization is summed up by a response from a hosting affiliate of mine (today): --- Two words... CIRA sucks. This client is having problems at z** that is why they want to transfer. Good luck keeping this client. CIRA really sucks. I really do hate them and there policies are WAYYYYY TOOO strick compared to other registrars. I will relay the message and they will probably renew where they are with all the hassles. We shall see. --- Anyone else thinking of dropping support for .ca, or 3x their pricing? EVERY name that has gone through, and EVERY transfer in the past month has required at least 1-2 hours or diggling around to get done... Sad, sad state of affairs... <* vent off
