I've a question about transferring a domain onto another hosting provider. I've bought a domain from managedphp.com with registrar from Enom, Inc.

I would like to get hosting from another provider and keep the same domain name--the problem is the old provider does not exist anymore and there is no way to provide credentials. On top of that when I whois the domain it says status locked.

How to I claim ownership of the domain name if the hosting provider where I had my credentials is down?

So the old hosting company offered 1 free domain with your hosting account and they have gone out of business?

I would look for a phone number and email to the old hosting provider, check their whois records and Google to find contact information. If they were the ones who registered the domain they are the owners. You would need to ask them to transfer it to a registrar where you have an account.

There is a discussion about this company here with other customers facing the same problems www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=1064802
