    I've been looking at my few .com and .net renewals recently and the costs are definitely being hiked. Can anyone recommend a reasonably prices registrar for them pls.

    Unfortunately it looks like .com domain names are going to continue to go up in cost for 7 or 8 years to come.

    I wrote about it here.

    Don't think that could be any cheaper, considering its (if you fund via transfer) at cost!
    Normal rate of cost plus 50 cents to cover credit card fees,seems too good to be true.

    I moved all my non .UK domains to NameBright few years ago. Service is very good too.

    Can recommend Netistrar. I got in early and managed to get on the VIP plan which the best tier for prices, a .com costs me £7.99

    Just moved my first .com over to name bright as a test.
    Cost me $8.53 billed to my fee free credit card at just £6.94

    Wow, what a difference even with current low exchange rates.

    Has anyone used namebrights email services or have any other cheap recommendations?
    I need to move my non critical mailboxes so not looking for anything fancy, just pop3 or IMAP.
