Hi,

After the GoDaddy "incident" I decided to switch registrars. I went with
NameCheap based on various reviews I had seen on the internet. I am
_not_ impressed. I won't go into details, but the end result is I am
wanting to switch registrars again.

I've read through Gandi's information, and it looks like a great choice.
I have a few questions, however, prior to moving.

#1 - When using Gandi's DNS services, is there a limit on the number of
A/CNAME/MX records? If so - what is it?

#2 - When transferring, do you get to keep all of your "credit"? My
domains don't expire until 2010/2011, will I still keep this when
transferring? Or do I lose this, and have to pay for those years again?

I'll probably have more questions in the future, but for now - this is
all. I very much appreciate any help that you might be able to provide!

Cheers,
David

Hi,

There is no limit. you can have as many records as you want.

#2 - When transferring, do you get to keep all of your "credit"? My

Only domains in .fr, .eu and .be loose extra years.
When you pay for a transfer with the other extension, we automatically
add an extra year on top of the current expiration date.

I'll probably have more questions in the future, but for now - this is
all. I very much appreciate any help that you might be able to provide!

Just ask :)
