domain release

charlie · Mar 3, 2005

Morning,
I got a number of domains i registered with Fasthosts through a third party. The third party w**kers never answer emails etc so i'm trying to regain control but looking into it, as far as i can see, its going to cost £10 a domain (fasthost admin) then £5 (123-reg admin) each to transfer to 123. there must be a simplier way?
:evil:
thanks

the 2 bit third party aint the problem its getting fasthost to change the TAG seems an issue - if anyone has a contact becuase the only contact i can see on the website (fasthosts) is one where you have to be UKreg member, i know its free but i dont want one i just want the domains

Point them in the direction of this......

http://www.nic.uk/TagHolders/TagChangeFaq/

Am I obliged to make a tag change at the request of my customer?

Yes, the Tag Holder Agreement - http://www.nominet.org.uk/TagHolders/TagHolderAgreement/- clearly states that the tag holder has a duty to make a tag change promptly at the request of a registrant. If tag holders are found to be abusing this duty, Nominet will take steps to address the situation with the tag holder.
