"I'm curious why you feel the need to transfer the domain elsewhere?"
Because I'm giving it away to its owner. I got the domain for him when he was down and out. He's doing better now and I don't want to continue to be charged for it. I offered to transfer it as-is from GoDaddy to them but they wanted to transfer it to their parking and hosting accounts. The return email from GoDaddy "tech support" was just as unhelpful as their on-line "help" was. Very frustrating... However, I was finally able to get through to them on the phone...couldn't yesterday...and after about a 5 minute wait got the (I hope) right information from a very helpful person on the telephone -- not from India -- probably from Phoenix... So, I'd give them a "C"... Their website still doesn't work, the "help" at their website inadaquate, their email tech support clueless, but their on the phone support was very good...
