So it now has been 5 days, and still reads transfer pending. SquareSpace is till holding my domain hostage. So much for their "Award Winning Service" They aren't even open on weekends.

Nonsense, with Google Domains it took less than 15 minutes. I know, I moved 20+ domains away from Google domains before GoDaddy/SquareSpace took over. Sadly I am now stuck trying to move a domain from squarespace. I have started a case with ICANN...hopefully this will address the issue.

There is NO REASON for the delay. When it was Google Domains the transfer was done in less than 15 minutes. SquareSpace does this purposefully. Do what I have done. Contact ICANN, this is a violation of policy

What did you expect from a subsidiary of GoDaddy?

Done on purpose....they now take the MAXIMUM 5 days to keep your domain HIJACKED

I used auth codes and ACCEPTED transfer, now SquareSpace wants me to wait 5 days to transfer? Clear violation of ICANN policy. When it was Google Domains the transfer was done in as little as 10 - 15 minutes. Done on purpose as GoDaddy / SquareSpace doesn't want you to leave.

Contact ICANN for policy violations. Once you accept the transfer SquareSpace is required to release your domain to the new registrar IMMEDIATELY. When it was Google Domains, the transfer usually were completed in as little as 10 minutes.
