Cancelling Private Registrations on GoDaddy

Godaddy gave away free Private registrations early last year when your order amount crossed a certain amount,which tempted most of us to try out Private Registration

When you choose Private Registration using DomainsbyProxyas in this case. Your name wont be visible in the WHOIS Database results.

Registrant would be
Domains by Proxy, Inc.
DomainsByProxy.com
15111 N. Hayden Rd., Ste 160, PMB 353
Scottsdale, Arizona 85260
United States

and other details would be something similar

Private, Registration techquack.com@domainsbyproxy.com
Now Im not a big fan of Private Registrations but I have tried it.

Now some of my domains are coming up for renewal and I dont see a point in keeping the domains private by paying almost $7 more for this lame thing

I decided to renew the domains but the private registrations were enabled by default.

I saw this thread on DP which  mite have saved my ass.

I was wondering if have received any email in the past from  support at domainsbyproxy dot com

Gmail search did the trick . I had indeed received an email from them wayback with a username and password was my godaddy’s

Now can you see a checkbox to select the domains ? You can select the domains you don’t want to renew the private stuff.

It asks for a confirmation and then your done.

Back in my domain control panel in godaddy, the domain got updated to public registration type. So Domainsbyproxy is inside godaddy’s datacenter ?

Mission Accomplished .. managed to renew the domains without private registration
