Need help on transferring a domain

[dabuddha]

I registered a domain when I signed up for hosting at 1and1.com. I decided to go with a different host now since 1and1 was lacking in quite a few features. I want to transfer my domain over to godaddy but I'm not sure how to do it. I don't see any options for it in my 1and1 customer panel.
TIA!

start a transfer request in godaddy....if its registered under the same name (which it should since its yours) it should go thru no problem. You may have to buy another year @ godaddy

I don't mind that. Only thing I can't figure out is how to check if the domain is locked over at 1and1.com

What sucks more than 1and1 web hosting?

1and1 domain registrations

Confirm the domain is not LOCKED
Then initiate the transfer from your new registrar (GoDaddy.com)
