“Renews on July 15, 2024” (Note that today is August 8th, 2024)
What is the issue you’re encountering
I’ve just transferred in 2x soon-to-expire domains. They have both auto-renew enabled, they both say “Expires on Aug 14th” and they both say “Renews on Jul 15th”. Given that the auto-renewal date is in the past, does this mean that they will noth NOT auto-renew? (If this is true, then I can go ahead and manually renew both of the them.)
What steps have you taken to resolve the issue?
I have written this new topic to try to get the answer from the community.
What are the steps to reproduce the issue?
To reproduce my problem, just transfer in any domain 6 days before it’s due to expire. You will then (presumably) get an auto-renewal date that is in the past.
.uk domains do not get an additional year added on transfer like most other TLDs so it’s probably the only time this can happen.
If you’ve just made the transfer, it maybe the past renewal date will trigger a renewal to take place shortly, but if you are concerned due to the closeness of expiry, I would manually renew.
Ho hum.
