Pending Nameserver Update - four days and counting

A common topic. I have reviewed the community tip and believe that I have everything correct.

The domain is frcf254.org and it has been at least four days since I last tried to switch the name servers. This is the 11th domain I’ve switched from Google Domains in the last month and followed the same progress, including cutting and pasting the nameservers from the Cloudflare page to the Google Domains page. Google Domains support insists that they did everything correctly.

A whois query shows the correct nameservers:

$ whois frc5254.org | grep -i server
% IANA WHOIS server
nserver:      A0.ORG.AFILIAS-NST.INFO 199.19.56.1 2001:500:e:0:0:0:0:1
nserver:      A2.ORG.AFILIAS-NST.INFO 199.249.112.1 2001:500:40:0:0:0:0:1
nserver:      B0.ORG.AFILIAS-NST.ORG 199.19.54.1 2001:500:c:0:0:0:0:1
nserver:      B2.ORG.AFILIAS-NST.ORG 199.249.120.1 2001:500:48:0:0:0:0:1
nserver:      C0.ORG.AFILIAS-NST.INFO 199.19.53.1 2001:500:b:0:0:0:0:1
nserver:      D0.ORG.AFILIAS-NST.ORG 199.19.57.1 2001:500:f:0:0:0:0:1
Registrar WHOIS Server: http://whois.squarespace.domains
Name Server: cora.ns.cloudflare.com
Name Server: matt.ns.cloudflare.com

Querying the .org servers shows the correct nameservers:

$ host -v -t ns frc5254.org 199.19.57.1

I’ve already tried switching them back to Google Domain nameservers and then back to these Cloudflare nameservers a couple times.

On other domain that I transfered last weekend was stuck in this state until I switched to Google Domains nameservers and back once.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

As you have already mistyped the domain here, did you check to make sure you added the correct domain to Cloudflare?
