Yeah that was high on my list of things to do (even with paying for another year), but they "auction lock" domains for some number of days after winning (I'm guessing in person-to-person transfers they want to make sure it's legit).

If I bought a name through one registrar, am I allowed to switch to a different registrar? Yes. The Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy, applicable to all ICANN-accredited registrars, provides that registered name holders must be able to transfer their domain name registrations between registrars. You must wait 60 days after the initial registration or any previous transfers to initiate a transfer. This applies to ownership changes too, you would not have been able to transfer for 2 months.
- jeremymcanally 12y agoVery interesting. I wonder if they're breaking that provision or if there's some backhanded interpretation of it that they're using. EDIT: Whoops, re-read that again. Yep, that makes sense. I think "auction lock" is like 42 days. Like I said, locking it makes sense to avoid baddies getting hold of your domain easily.
