Hi Jose,
Unfortunately, we have to work with third parties like Godaddy which have suboptimal processes in place for domain transfers within their platform. Godaddy transfers have to be validated and approved by at least two parties. It seems you didn't follow our process strictly enough and never accepted the initiated account change.
That's why the transfer had expired because Godaddy was waiting for you to approve the ownership change.
In the near future, we're launching our own registrar to make this process significantly smoother and less confusing for buyers.
We do not see any messages from you other than you provide us with your Godaddy details. Please inform our support where you've left those messages asking for help since we do not see any other messages sent by you via your buyer control panel.
Have a great day,
Dan

They were slow responding to payment…
They were slow responding to payment problems with their website, and slow responding to requests for the transfer AUTH code of the domain I purchased. I eventually had to stay up until 1am GMT-8:00 to call them when they were open in Europe, and had to argue with them to just give me the AUTH code instead of creating an account with the domain registry they wanted me to use.
Added 3/4 Re: you response...
I understand that domain transfers involve multiple parties, and I am not reviewing the other parties involved. This does not explain why your website would not accept payment and multiple communications with you over a few days were required to arrange payment via an alternate method. Once payment was made, I received no communication with you until I followed up days later, and was then directed to a different URL (to get the AUTH code) that required a "secret code" to login. I was told that the code was mailed to me multiple times, and I tried the "I forgot my code" recovery link about 20 times over a day without receiving the recovery email. (I run my own email server and was able to packet-trace looking for connections from you, no connections were attempted).
When I finally telephoned at 1am California time to get the AUTH code, I was speaking with an agent who then tried to get me to set up an account at your registrar (I forget which) in order to receive the domain. You say "easiest and cheapest way", but I don't understand how having to set up a new account at a registrar I'm not familiar with would be easier (or cheaper) than dropping the AUTH code into the domain transfer process at the registrar of my choice. The agent finally agreed to give me the AUTH code, and did so immediately.
This is on you. The problems were all communication related, when I finally telephoned and argued, I was able to receive the AUTH code, which means you had it available to you all along. No other stakeholder was involved in either the payment process nor the transfer process.

Dear Kenneth,
Domain transfers are a four stakeholder process. Multiple parties are involved and some of the stakeholders like the registrar that manages the domain but also the domain owner/seller influence the transfer process.
At DAN.COM, we always ensure to present you with the easiest transfer process. Often for .com domains, like the one you've purchased, delivering the domain at the managing registrar is the easiest and cheapest way for you to secure the domain. We've also replied to all your messages timely and within the timeframe communicated on our site.
We're sorry to see this review, which we believe does not reflect the actual service that we've provided.
Good luck with the domain,
Dan
