Hi guys,

like you might already know, domain renewal fee in enomcentral is $39 per year, so i wanted to transfer out my domain from enomcentral to namecheap or godaddy

i already tried ordering transfer in namecheap 2 times, but still failed, its says

Reason for Cancellation :
Canceled - Invalid EPP/authorization key - Please contact current registrar to obtain correct key

screenshot :









the EPP/authorization key should be right, i only copy paste it directly from email page to namecheap transfer page
screenshot the EPP/authorization key are received to my email :












Note About lock
Here are screenshot of General settings page in enomcentral, you can see Registrar-Lock is disabled, i already do this few weeks a go


but i tried do whois check in domaintools.com today, its says still Locked, it is true or not, its should be says Unlocked








please help what is the solutions guys?
- is it because the EPP/authorization key, have special character on it that is "(", and namecheap cant handle it? i still not yet try the transfer using godaddy, if you recommending me try godaddy too, i will try it, i am only afraid it will failed too before

- enomcentral.com renewal is $39, but i read enom.com reseller renewal is only about $9, do i need to search another person that have enom.com reseller account, push it there and help to renew it?

If whois says that it is locked then it is still locked.

Any of theses apply?

Upon denying a transfer request for any of the following reasons, the Registrar of Record must provide the Registered Name Holder and the potential Gaining Registrar with the reason for denial. The Registrar of Record may deny a transfer request only in the following specific instances:

Evidence of fraud
UDRP action
Court order by a court of competent jurisdiction
Reasonable dispute over the identity of the Registered Name Holder or Administrative Contact
No payment for previous registration period (including credit card charge-backs) if the domain name is past its expiration date or for previous or current registration periods if the domain name has not yet expired. In all such cases, however, the domain name must be put into "Registrar Hold" status by the Registrar of Record prior to the denial of transfer.
Express written objection to the transfer from the Transfer Contact. (e.g. - email, fax, paper document or other processes by which the Transfer Contact has expressly and voluntarily objected through opt-in means)
A domain name was already in “lock status” provided that the Registrar provides a readily accessible and reasonable means for the Registered Name Holder to remove the lock status.
A domain name is in the first 60 days of an initial registration period.
A domain name is within 60 days (or a lesser period to be determined) after being transferred (apart from being transferred back to the original Registrar in cases where both Registrars so agree and/or where a decision in the dispute resolution process so directs).

Why don't you contact their support and let them give you the reason it's still locked. We had a "certain punk thug registrar" hold a domain for 6 months after it was released from "their own whois privacy company" before they would release the epp codes, and of course, another domain renewal had to be paid to them to keep the domain from expiring.

We also filed a complaint with ICANN and never received a reply from them.
