These answers are imprecise, and I need help. The source of my confusion is that the semantics, or the words used, differ.
I am a layperson and not employed by square. I don't have my own thread. In fact, I abhor threads as a means of solving problems.
- How am I to understand A) cancelling my month-to-month payments and account with square while B) ensuring that the domain name I purchased through square will be available to me when I transfer it to another web building platform.
Answering that will be enough. If you wish for me to expound on the source of my confusion, I have done so below. Maybe it can be an opportunity to teach something valuable. Please help!
--------------------------
Why I am confused:
Cancelling my domain name purchase, as used in a woman's original question, uses the word CANCEL, not SUBSCRIPTION. The word that I see when I follow exactly what you say to do, after clicking the manage link, takes me to a page that says, "You're subscribed to the CustomDomainWhois plan.
Then it gives me a choice of unsubscribing. But what does that mean? I cannot be sure from the language.
Cancel and subscribe are two different words with different meanings.
What am I doing when I unsubscribe? Do I still have access to my domain so I may transfer it to another web building platform? I just purchased it through square on April 22 of this year.
Other conceptual questions: Does the domain only exist through square? Does the domain name, and access to it, exist within square until I transfer it for use with another web builder? My question is how to do something, and I am unsure if what I am doing is protecting my domain name and leaving, or if I am barring access to it by cancelling all and everything.
