Hi guys,
I bought a domain name with registryweb.com 16 years ago.
registryweb.com became all of these websites (at the same time) csl-registrar.com, system-notices.com and onlineassetbrokers.com (I am getting emails to renew and access the domain details from all 3 of these websites).
I wanted to transfer the domain out of this registrar this month and logged into each of the above websites and could not find a way to get my auth code.
I then contacted joker.com and they said that this is a reseller and I have to deal with them directly. Joker.com provided the email address [email protected] for me to reach out to them (another website to add to the 3 above).
I contacted them, they simply emailed me my username and password to log into one of the above websites.
I finally found a page to "Cancel services" under their management panel, and the domain cancellation costs $59 US.
I found the following link on ICANN's website https://www.icann.org/resources/pag... called,registrant or registered name holder).
It clearly states the following:
I wrote an email to [email protected] with the above details and I indicated that I ask them to provide me with auth codes for my domain name or I will be forced to submit a transfer complaint form to ICANN (https://forms.icann.org/en/resources/compliance/complaints/transfer/form). Please note this was my 3rd attempt to get my auth code as I had tried reaching out to them already through their contact form two times.
This was my email:
They replied with the following:
They have now deleted my account, I am unable to login, and now I see that my domain has been pushed to On-hold (redemption Period) for deletion even though it expires in September 2020.
Can anyone help me with this please?

My registrar is charging me a fee to transfer to a new registrar. Is this allowed?
Yes. Registrars are allowed to set their own prices for this service so some may choose to charge a fee. However, a transfer cannot be denied due to non-payment of this transfer fee. There are other reasons your registrar can deny transfer request. See FAQ #8 above for more information.

Hello,
After digging through your management panel I find there is a way to "cancel services", ie, a way for me transfer my domain name.
You ask for a fee of $59 for this.
According to ICANN terms and conditions: https://www.icann.org/resources/pag... called,registrant or registered name holder).

Please unlock the domain name and provide me with the auth code so I can transfer my domain name.
If my domain name is not unlocked I will unfortunately be forced to submit a formal transfer complaint to ICANN https://forms.icann.org/en/resources/compliance/complaints/transfer/form and make a formal complaint to joker.com.
Thank you,
