My advice to everyone is transfer your .uk domains to another registrar such as Heart Internet, for all your other domains you can administer them for free at joker.com if it says that your registrar is joker.com in the whois. Full instructions to transfer a .com away are here. |
cheers apd
where uk2 catch you out is they have themselves as the admin & technical contacts, so don't think can go the joker route & change/transfer away.
can't use their email address
plus to transfer out info & com you need auth codes which they don't supply
for the tlds, once you have renewed them over 2 years i.e in their 3rd year of registration they can be transferred out free
i spoke to someone recently at uk2 who said they are working on changing that soon
thing is with the email charges, looks like they are increasing charges
as far as i can find, & have done, (like you say bulk tagchange via nominet), cheap & simple. i transferred all mine out some time ago too.
cheers
