  I am trying to transfer a domain name hosted by wordpress.com to Bluehost. I went into WordPress and put Bluehost IPS tag PDR-IN and it said i had successfully transfered to another registrar, but when I put in the domain name – youngfilmmakers.co.uk into the enter domain name to transfer box it keeps coming up with error message in red –

  Please type a valid domain name with only letters, numbers, and dashes.
  The domain may only end with the extensions com, co, org, net, us, info, biz.

  Can you help please

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi @yfm123, can you clarify where you’re entering that? Right now I can see you don’t have any active domains on this account with us.

  Hi, I am entering into

  Transfer – Select a Domain

  I thought I had the domain filmsquad.co.uk already with you. You billed me £252.18 on March 29th

  Thank you for any help you can give

  Hi there,

  You have already transferred that domain from us to PDR on May 22. If you wish to transfer to BlueHost you need to contact your new registrar, PDR.

  Hi fstat,

  I’m trying to transfer the domain to blueHost, but the system won’t let me. I am becoming very confused with it all.

  @yfm123, actually now it looks like the domain is with fasthosts.co.uk and properly pointed to Bluehost.

  So I think you’ve got it right, actually, though it’s possible you need to wait for your computer to “refresh” so you can see the new site.

  Since the domain is transferred to and pointed at Bluehost now, any settings you’re seeing on our end won’t much, except redirect the old site to the new one if you’d like.

  But you should be able to make changes on Bluehost’s end now if needed. If you need more help, you’ll want to get in touch with them.
