Hi,
I have been with Cloudflare for a long time and it is still impossible to move domain name from one Cloudflare account to another Cloudflare account.
That is, unless I am missing something?
Here is my setup:
- I have registered
example.com
with Cloudflare Registrar via my private Cloudflare account - I want to move
example.com
to my business Cloudflare account
Yes, there is a guide here https://developers.cloudflare.com/fundamentals/get-started/basic-tasks/manage-domains/move-domain/
- but the steps here does not solve problem.
According to the guide, I must disable DNSSEC. Done.
Under Transfer Your Domain pt. 3 the guide says:
“Log in to your domain registrar account and update the nameservers to the provided Cloudflare nameservers.”
The problem is: This guide assumes you have access to edit the DNS servers. However, I do not have access to do that in Cloudflare Dashboard because I am a Cloudflare FREE customer. You can only edit DNS Servers if you have a Cloudflare BUSINESS account type.
The FREE account does not allow you to edit the DNS servers!
So, to solve this should I really have to upgrade my Private (FREE) Cloudflare account, to a BUSINESS Account, just to shut this newly upgraded account down, after I have moved the domain?
SSomeone else https://community.cloudflare.com/t/move-website-and-domain-from-one-cloudflare-account-to-another-cloudflare-account/424140
explained this very problem, but the Solution there provided is still incorrect:
Cloudflare, please help
At least, allow users to update DNS servers on the Free account to other Cloudflare DNS servers.
Help, help, help.
