Title: Dynadot's Updates Cause Chaos
Post by: chadha on Jun 19, 2023, 07:22 AM
It seems that Dynadot has made some changes that unintentionally prevent the sale of domains, causing inconvenience for users trying to list their domains for sale.

When attempting to list a domain, users are required to verify their date of birth and unblock their account, regardless of the domain's age. However, the link provided for verification does not work, rendering it impossible to list or sell domains.

It is uncertain if this issue impacts current listings.

It's possible that your ad blocker or plugin is causing a problem.

This function has always worked perfectly, and I've never had any issues with it.

What kind of 2FA do you have in operation? Google Authenticator? That's usually what you need to enter after the birthdate field.

As someone who values online security, I recommend enabling two-factor authentication whenever possible. It adds an extra layer of protection to your sensitive information.

The new requirement for users to verify their date of birth before listing a domain is an unwanted hurdle. It seems that heads up was not given about this new verification process, and to make matters worst, the verification link provided by Dynadot is completely broken.

This has left users in a limbo where they can't unblock their accounts or verify their dates of birth, thus rendering it impossible to list or sell domains they may have owned for years. It's very troubling, since the domain market can be fickle and timing is key; if we can't list our domains, we might miss out on potential buyers.

Moreover, there's uncertainty regarding if current listings are still functional or whether they too are being affected by this glitch. It's crucial for Dynadot to address these issues quickly, as it not only impacts the sellers, but also the buyers who are looking for domains.
It's essential for Dynadot to communicate clearly about this issue and provide a working solution to ensure that users can continue to buy and sell domains without facing these unnecessary obstacles. Hopefully, they will sort this out soon, or it could lead to a loss of trust from their user base.

The broken verification link exacerbates the situation, leaving users unable to list their domains effectively. This disruption could potentially impact existing listings as well, leading to a loss of revenue for many. Dynadot needs to address these issues promptly to restore confidence among its users.
