Price increase at 1and1

Looks like 1and1 have decided to increase prices, nearer to 123reg levels. This is currently being sweetened with a 1 year "free period"

You'll note the statement that domains will be "from £2.99/year" beyond year 1

Maybe, but less sales at a profit is preferable to more sales at a loss

As I wrote earlier, there is an initial sweetener and then it's £2.99 per annum.

Sorry!

At the time I posted that link it said

With the cheapest .co.uk domain anywhere (only £1.99 per year )
they have since changed it to

Still a good deal for the first 2 years though.

Dear All

I quote from 1&1s Ts and Cs on this promotion:
[SIZE="1"]
For a limited period (28 June '07 to 31 August '07) we are offering all new orders of .uk domain names (i.e.: co.uk, org.uk, me.uk) the following:
During the period outlined above, if you purchase a .uk domain name from us we shall register the domain name and charge you £0.00 GBP for the first year’s registration and only £2.99 GBP for the second year.
The term of this offer is for 2 years and it must not be used in conjunction with any other discount, offer or packaged service that we offer and it is further limited to no more than 5 domain names being registered with us per household. The offer only applies to .uk domain names (i.e.: co.uk, org.uk, me.uk).
You will be charged £2.99 GBP immediately upon registering the domain name with us. There are no restrictions on you cancelling your domain name registration or transferring the domain name to another provider, however do note that no refund will be given.
We reserve the right to end this offer or amend these terms and conditions at any time without prior notice.
Important: By applying for this offer, you agree to be bound by these official terms and conditions which are in addition to our general terms and conditions.[/SIZE]
So the bottom line is you can only register 5 names at this bargain price !

Best Regards


JohnP
