It was working before but I mistakenly pressed decline on my alt account because the decline button is larger than accept button and there’s no confirmation prompt whether I’m sure to decline or not… But when I try to re-initiate transfer it keeps spitting out “Failed to initiate transfer request”, quite ambiguous error message… so I check Developer Tools → Network tab, when I try to initiate transfer the transfer request returns HTTP code 500.
Hi, thank you for the report! We can confirm this is expected behavior on our end. When a group ownership transfer is declined by the recipient, the system enforces a temporary hold that prevents the transfer from being re-initiated to the same recipient for a period of time. This is a safeguard to prevent repeated unsolicited transfer requests.
The error message you’re seeing (“Failed to initiate transfer request”) is not very descriptive and we’ll look into improving it.
