Grace Period Deletion
We have added a way to request a deletion of your domain in the grace period. The grace period is usually the first 5 days after registration. You can get an account credit for the cost of the domain, which you can use to register another domain. If you have any new domains in your account, you will see a new field "Grace (hours)" in the new domain listing. If that field is greater than zero, you can request a deletion for an account credit. Please allow us 24 hours to process your deletion. http://www.dynadot.com/account

This is a coll feature but can this credit be forward to another account ? I've friends using dynadot and they recommended it to me and i've been here for about a week and i'm a happy customer with 10 domains so far but i thought it would be great if i can exchange prepay credit between me and my friends to make life easier just in case i need to register domain and don't have enough funds so a friend gives me some credit and i register those domains would be great if done

Unfortunately, we do not allow account credit to be transferred to other Dynadot accounts at this time.

Only .EU domains are excluded from the grace period deletion feature as they do not have any grace period at all. [edit] .UK domains have also been excluded from the grace deletion feature.[/edit] [This post has been edited by dynadot_staff on Mar 2, 2007 2:07pm.]

.UK domains are also excluded from the grace period deletion feature as the UK registry only allows very few deletions per month. This includes co.uk, org.uk, and me.uk domain extensions.

Ahmed, If Dynadot is based in the US, as its whois record indicates, then it may be difficult to get credits transferred between accounts due to the money laundering restrictions in the US.

Yes, our grace period deletions are still free. You may use our grace period deletion feature with IDNs.

Verisign, the COM/NET central registry, does not like repeated registration and grace deletion of the same domain. Due to this, we have added a restriction to COM/NET grace deletions. After 5 grace deletions for a given domain, any further registration attempts for that domain will no longer be allowed. More information can be found on this page: [url=http://www.dynadot.com/domain/grace_deletion.html]Grace Deletions[/url]

Okay and if you switch a domain to another account and it still has grace deletion and you delete on that account do you still get account credit even if u didnt register it it was just switched to you?

j_h_fairfield_us: A domain that has been moved into a new Dynadot account can't be grace deleted. In that type of situation, if you need to grace delete the domain, you will need to move it back to the original account and then submit a grace deletion request.
