Quick Fix for NameBright Issues

The other day, I consolidated some .com domain names at GoDaddy prior to the most recent Verisign price increase. When I tried to approve the transfers at NameBright, I encountered an error message that prevented me from transferring the domain names to GoDaddy.

I reached out to NameBright support, and I was directed to try and approve the transfers on the legacy website. NameBright recently launched a new platform, but it still operates the older platform at Legacy.NameBright.com. I logged in to my account on the legacy platform, navigated to the transfer authorization screen, and the transfers were immediately released after I approved.

This afternoon, I won a domain name at a DropCatch.com auction. After paying for the purchase, I logged into my NameBright account to set up nameservers for this domain name. It was not there. I then logged into my account on the legacy version of the platform, and I was able to see the domain name. I changed the nameservers and the domain name is all set. I went back to the current platform and refreshed, but the domain name has not yet shown up.

I am not sure what is causing the lag time and other issues, but it looks like this will be the first thing I try before contacting support the next time.
