Re: My website saga, part 1 - transferring domain name

[Evelyn Lee Barney <evbarney -at- comcast -dot- net>]

StartLogic has also been a pain in my tail re: letting go of my 
domains.  I, too, am switching to GoDaddy. 

StartLogic is a DISASTER. 

The tech support rarely knows what they are doing. 

They have been trained to start each and every sentenced by phone, in 
chat and in email with "we are sorry for any inconvenience we may have 
caused you."

Every time I tried to log in during the transfer process - my password 
had to be reset. 

I had privacy on one of my domains - and they simply would not let it 
go.  They gave me 3 separate sets of instructions on how to release it - 
none of which worked.  Then - they had me call them - said they had 
taken care of it during the convo - then wrote to say "whoops - guess 
not."  ("we are sorry for any inconvenience we may have caused you." )

They then proceeded to tell me I had to fax them with all kinds of info 
they already had - and include a picture of a government photo ID.  The 
fax number was always busy - so I emailed them a PDF, and explained 
why.  They emailed me back and said they could not open PDFs (WHAT?!) 
and told me to fax  the same number that had been busy for over two days.

When I wrote to them again, they sent me anohter email ("we are sorry 
for any inconvenience we may have caused you"  - gotta be a macro) and 
said to use a different fax # (this one was not toll free)

I have done so - and they have acknowledged receipt, but the process is 
not complete.

My advice to you is to stay as far away form StartLogic as possible.
