Moving or Pushing a Domain Name from one Customer Control Panel to another

Moving or Pushing a Domain Name from one Customer Control Panel to another

You can Move/push a domain name with all its related Services from your existing Customer Control Panel to another Customer, by following the steps mentioned below:

Exceptions 
Note
  • Third level .ME domain names can be registered only by Montenegrin individuals and entities. Hence, these domain names can be moved only under a Customer whose Default Registrant Contact is a Montenegrin individual or entity.

  • Move operation is not available for .NZ domain names.

  • When a .TEL domain name is registered, the system automatically creates an account for accessing the .TEL Hosting Control Panel and sends the login details to the Registrant Contact. If moving of your .TEL domain name involves change of the Registrant Contact, then you need to update the email address associated with the .TEL Hosting Control Panel for this domain name. 1

  1. Login to your Control Panel, search for the domain name which needs to be moved and proceed to the Order Information view. 2

    About Lock / Suspension 
    Note
    • If the domain name is Locked/Suspended, you will have to first get it Unlocked/Unsuspended before proceeding further.

    • For Resellers: If the domain name is Locked by you, you may proceed without Unlocking it.

    • For Resellers: If the domain name is Locked by Unique InfoTech, you need to get it Unlocked first. Contact us at http://support.uniqinfotech.com.

    • For Resellers: If the domain name is Suspended by either you or Unique InfoTech, it needs to be first Unsuspended, before you can proceed.

  2. Click Move Services link on the top right-hand side of the screen, to initiate the process.

  3. Here, you would have to mention the following details:

    • New Customer's Id: The Customer Id is a unique number associated with a Customer's Profile. If you do not know the Customer Id of the new Account, you can find it by clicking the icon at the top right corner within the new Customer Control Panel.

    • New Customer's Username: Mention the Customer Username (Email Address) of the Customer Account where you wish to move the domain name.

    About Customer Details 
    Note
    • If you are moving the domain name under a different Reseller, but have not created a Customer Account under that Reseller, you need to correspond with this Reseller for your Customer Id and Username (Email Address) to move your domain name to this Customer Control Panel.

    • You will encounter the below error messages in case:

      • the Customer Username (Email Address) and the Customer Id you specified are not of the same Customer:

        Attention

        The Customer username and Customer ID are not of the same Customer

      • the Customer Username (Email Address) and/or the Customer Id you specified are incorrect:

        Attention

        Invalid Customer

  4. Select whether you wish to retain the existing Contact Details after the domain name is moved to the new Customer Control Panel. This will keep the Whois Details of your domain name as is, even after moving the domain name. If you do not select this option, then the Contact Details will change to the Default Contacts of the new Customer Control Panel.

    About Contact Details 
    Note
    • If you are Moving/Pushing a .ASIA domain name and choose to retain the existing Contact Details, then the current CED Contact would continue to be used, even after the Move.

      Additional Information

      CED Contact

    • If you are Moving/Pushing a .ASIA domain name and choose not to retain the existing Contact Details, then the Registrar's default CED Contact would be used after the Move.

    • While Moving (pushing) a .ES domain name to another Customer Control Panel, the Default Contact of the new Customer cannot be associated with the domain name. Hence, the existing Contacts associated with the .ES domain name will be retained.

    • Upon moving a .PRO domain name to another Customer, the existing professional information gets associated with the new Registrant Contact (if Contacts are not retained).

    • While Moving (pushing) your .UK domain name to another Customer Control Panel, your existing Registrant contact information is retained.

  5. Click the Move services to other Customer button.

  6. Confirm that the Customer Account to which you are moving this domain name, is the one you really intend to and click the Confirm and Move button.

Move Errors 
Note
  • You may encounter an error while attempting to Move Services for a domain name, if:

    • One or more Services for this domain name are currently being processed.

    • There is a Pending Invoice for any Service associated with this domain name.

    • There are one or more Services under another Customer of this [new] Reseller.

      Example:

      If you have purchased domain name registration for yourdomainname.com through your Customer Control Panel with Unique InfoTech and have purchased another Product/Service for yourdomainname.com through Reseller B. Now if you try to move yourdomainname.com to another Customer Control Panel [say Customer Account of Y] under Reseller B, you will encounter an error.

    • One or more Products/Services are currently under the Money Back Period

    In any of the above cases, the Moving or Pushing of the domain name is not possible and you will have to either:

    1. wait for the processing to complete, or

    2. Cancel any Pending process.

  • You will encounter the below error message in case the domain name is either:

    • Locked/Suspended at the Registry (and not under our system), or

    • a Transfer Away for the domain name to another Registrar is under process

    Attention

    Domain Status does not allow this operation.

  • Other issues that you may encounter while Moving your domain name and their solutions are listed below:

      • Wait for the Transfer to complete and then carry out the desired modification at the New Registrar.

    In this case, the [new] Reseller needs to sign up for this domain name extension before the domain name can be moved.
