AfternicReviews of afternic.com

I sold "fitme.ai" through Afternic on the 4th of September and I still did NOT receive the payment for it. The Afternic team contacted me on the 27th of August 2024 to inform me that my domain has sold and that I needed to manually complete the transfer. Whenever there was a problem (like removing certain protections from my GoDaddy account), I was always prompt to respond, solve the problem, and let them know. All within minutes, not hours or days, but minutes. After the domain was transferred successfully and the company who bought the domain started using it, Afternic stoped responding to my emails. Their last email reads as follows: "Hello, Thank you for informing us, we are working on scheduling your payout." That payout is still not scheduled. After this, I have asked them countless times to reply to my emails. I have given them all the details as to where they should transfer my funds, which are long overdue. Today is the 23rd of September 2024 and I have yet to hear from them. A total SCAM. Perhaps it's fine to buy domains from them, but selling domains with the "help" of Afternic is a complete nightmare. Stay away at all costs. ||UPDATE||: After posting this review they finally contacted me swiftly and sent me the funds within a few days. Judging by the rest of these reviews here, this is the only way to make sure you receive your funds: complain as much as you can everywhere. I will still leave this 1-star review here, the whole process was a nightmare.

Payment Not Received After Domain Sold My domain limelight.io was auto-transferred after I sold it on September 6th. Was told funds will be disbursed in 1-3 business days. Its September 18th now. Afternic Transaction Assurance team is really nice, but I keep getting told that they are waiting to hear back from payments team. There is a security risk with my domain being transferred and all my services still being tied to it. Please disburse the funds.

A fuir, achat d'un nom de domaine sur leur site, mais ne veulent pas que je le revende sur leur site pour problème de droit d'auteur. Alors pourquoi le proposer à l'achat ???

This interaction was quick and succesful.

After reading through these, I’m not alone. I apparently sold my domain name weeks ago but have not received payment or any updates. The domain sold for 5K and the last I heard 3 weeks ago was I was getting a payment of 4250 in about 7 days. I have called 4 times and no one can help me. The domain is gone and I have not received payment. Ridiculous. Humanmotion domain OWNER

I have sold my domain here on this site and received a email about the sale and have completed everything on the transfer domain and domain has been fully transferred and after that showed that my payment are available in 1-3 days, has been passed more of 1 week and never received anything, no payment no notification, I have send a email support and they not offer any explanation and just said "wait for updates" but not offer any explanation or any dates of timeframe, this site looks big company but looks like a poor service...

Absolutely the worst customer support ever! The domain that was supposedly leased for me has still not been transferred and I can not get anyone that knows what they are doing to help! I do not usually leave bad reviews but this has been ridiculous!
