There was a problem with some of the details provided. Please look below for the messages in red to see what the problem was.
However there are no messages in red, and there shouldn’t be because my new nameservers are valid.
Rather then even contacting Getyername support I just decided to transfer the domain to another registrar. Ah the pleasure of “walking away”. Since my experience with EasySpace, and Yahoo, and considering I manage hundreds of domains I have little time for bad registrars.
