I am a Tucows reseller and registrar. FWIW, the easiest way to handle these expires is to first pay the existing registrar for a 1 yr renewal. Even though you might not be able to get the confirmation email, most gateways/registrars will accept payment from a gorilla as long as the credit card is honest. That simply buys you time to work out the transfer of the domain afterwards.

You cannot transfer a domain within 30 days of its expire date (ICANN rule, not Tucows). So you have to first protect it by renewing it - then you can work on the details of transferring contact or ownership without "renewal adrenillin" running up the back of your neck.

Just an opinion...
