xxkylexx Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 Hey guys, I signed up with RegisterFly Accouny about a week ago. I noticed when I applied, I never received any type of email confrming it, but it still went through, which I thought was odd. Then about four days later, I noticed I had still not gotten an email telling me I had been confirmed yet or not. So, I logged into RF, and went to the reseller area and now notice that I have a reseller management area. So, I sent them in a ticket, and asked if this was it. They said that it indeed was, and that my account was accepted and activated. I thought this was odd, becasue I still hadn't received any documentation on the usage of the account. So, I try contacting their support again to send me the emails that were necessary, but they keep telling me that I need to whitelist them... when that makes no sense since I am using gmail and get nothing in my inbox nor spam folder. So, I tried asking them a few questions on various functions in the reseller planel, but I I keep getting "I do not understand question", when it is pretty obvious and simple to what I am asking. Just wondering if anyone else here is familiar with the RF reseller deal, and maybe could answer a few questions I have? Kyle 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taylorwilsdon Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 They don't send out any emails about your reseller account. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxkylexx Posted August 10, 2006 Author Share Posted August 10, 2006 Seems kind of odd they wouldn't tell you how to use the thing. Anyways, anyone know what the "Ip Address Management" section is for under the Reseller Management area? Also, is there a minimum amount of funds that need to be added, or can I just add $6.50 to give it a test run? Kyle 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHMCS CEO Matt Posted August 10, 2006 WHMCS CEO Share Posted August 10, 2006 Hi, There's no minimum - just add $6.50 and you can try a registration - although I found it was a few hours after adding funds before I was able to register a domain when testing.

xxkylexx Posted August 10, 2006 Author Share Posted August 10, 2006 Doesn't seem to explain much either. I guess they want us to send in tickets to figure out things. Thanks thernes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHMCS CEO Matt Posted August 11, 2006 WHMCS CEO Share Posted August 11, 2006 What is it you are trying to do? Their reseller area is not designed to be "used". You can't register or transfer domains from the RegisterFly site as a reseller - you only get the $6.50 pricing when you perform functions with RegisterFly via the API - using a program known by most as WHMCS Regards, Matt 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxkylexx Posted August 11, 2006 Author Share Posted August 11, 2006 Sounds great then. Still trying to figure out what this IP address deal is they have, 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxkylexx Posted August 11, 2006 Author Share Posted August 11, 2006 Sent in a ticket about the IP address section. Also, I just noticed this as a feature of the reseller accounts: Domain deletions allow within 4 day cycle What exactly is this?

WHMCS CEO Matt Posted August 11, 2006 WHMCS CEO Share Posted August 11, 2006 If it's where you can add IP addresses then that is where you have to enter your server ip. It is a security measure to prevent other people from using your API account. Matt 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taylorwilsdon Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 That means that if you receive a fraudulent payment or they cancel the order, you can reverse the domain purchase. You've got a 4 day period after purchase to do so. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebyp2 Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 don't know if anybody else has noticed this but there is a new api command for listdomains. also, two things i have discovered from tickets. from september the registrar details will be listed as the resellers information which is a nice advertising feature. and .co.uk domains can be registered via the api for $5.99 per year, which is actually very competative. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stealthusa Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 are there anybody that got this set up right because i am at a lost and have went over and over stuff and dont think it is right 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tj Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 Registerfly, sometimes is like a bad webhost. The type that offers "unlimited" Hard Drive space one of those magic hard drives I cant seem to get my hands on, and the servers go down becos they couldnt cope with the 2 people rush. Sometimes their great, efficient, fast cheap. Sometimes it'll take a nameserver 2 weeks to update on their systems before it actually points elsewhere. One week arguing in support tickets and one week for some dude to approve the update. Maybe others have had better luck than I? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebyp2 Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 registerfly are absolutly fine, so long as you don't want to speak to them. have you harassed them on the live support? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tj Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 Harrassed? Took two weeks for my .com's namesevers to update on their systems and get approved. Godaddy/Directi/enome/and other registrars take max a day. How do you think I reacted? Otherwise their allright yeah... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebyp2 Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 yeah, go on the live support and bug the hell out of them. I really have had no problem with them, although i now feel the need to add *yet* on the end 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taylorwilsdon Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Sometimes they're great, sometimes they're good. I wouldn't say I've ever had a negative experience with Registerfly, but sometimes they're not spectacular. Take two days ago, for example. No registrations all day due to some "upgrade" that they were performing. However, when it does work, I've seen instant registration / propagation which is phenomenal and dns changes have always been snappy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrip Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 I'm not too sure about them at present. My first order was for a .co.uk and got the errror: Unable to register name 720 Our system is experiencing technical difficulties, please try again later.If problem persists, please contact support and state error message: REM server: -702, the Registries for the following tld(s) cannot be accessed at this time:co.uk, org.uk, me.uk, net.uk, ltd.uk, plc.uk I contacted support who said, leave it 24 hours. 3 days later I'm still getting the same error. My .com order when through on the second submission after some random error clicking the first time. There pricing is good, if only there system was consistent I'd be happy. But three support tickets over my first 2 domain orders is not looking good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
