I bought two sites a few weeks ago and I'm having a hell of a time transferring the DNS settings. The domains are registered at namecheap.com so we just did a push to my account to transfer the names to me.

So that went well and worked fine. However I have set the new name servers and in the namecheap.com admin section it shows my name servers, when I whois the domain my name servers show up. However the domain is still going to the old server.

The first name did this, and it took a few tries (2 days) to get it to finally point at my server. Now I try to point the second domain and it's been 3 days with several tries yet it still points at the old server.

I've contacted their support and so far only received one e-mail asking if the name servers listed were right.. Which they were but they aren't going there. So I pointed it out and haven't received another reply.

The only solution I can come up with is to transfer the domain to one of my other registrars.. Anyone else run into this problem before? Gotta solution?

I also want to say I bought a site with a name registered at namecheap.com about a month ago and I was able to change it's DNS setting with no issues at all. So this seems to be some issue that has come up in the last 2 weeks.
