The error I'm getting is from weebly.com not from the hosting company. I think weebly.com/ squareup isn't allowing me to update it.

HI, ok, is your domain hosted on Square? or with a domain provider?
If with Square and you requested a change with Square Support it can take 7 to 14 business days.
If you have access to your domain at a domain provider, ex.GoDaddy and can change the nameservers yourself, it would take a few hours and then populate correctly.
A domain change or update is not instant.

Hello Goldeneye, thanks for your reply.
Yes, I have the domain hosted with square but was transferred to weebly.com couple of months ago. I want to build the website with another hosting company but when I try changing the nameservers to the other hosting company I get the failed to update error.

HI, I am still confused. Square and Weebly are one. I understand you want your store on another hosting company. So you would need to contact Square to request to have your domain unlocked. Please note it takes 7 to 14 business days for this to happen.
Square Support page
https://squareup.com/help/us/en/article/7025-unlock-your-domain-and-get-the-epp-code
You can try to contact Customer Support with this link. Monday to Friday.

Thanks for your response Goldeneye. My actual issue is updating the nameservers in my squareup account.
I recently transferred my domain name to the new squareup and when I try updating the nameservers to point to hostgator I get a " failed to update nameservers ". What could be the issue?
