There is good news:
I sold a .com last month and they did release the name to me within 2 hours of me following the procedure here: http://amail.co.uk/moveaway.htm

I should have moved my co.uk's away from them yonks ago, but it was just down to laziness. The boot up the backside for me is this new rediculous stealth charging.

I cannot understand their business model. When I got my first PC back in 1999 they were the market leaders. But they have continued to operate in the "pay for everything" mode while others are now flourishing by doing the opposite.

UK2 could have consolidated the market even today if they had taken the same approach.

Good to see you can actually contact them now. Bad to see you pay premium rate phone price for the privilage. (It wouldn't be so bad if they talked dirty to you at the same time. )
