Names.co.uk experience?

[Vinc]

They have a promo running at
promotions.names.co.uk/index_uk147.html?PR=EG0&BID=000&LPAG=uk147&idc=5253.
I bought 5 domains yesterday and no confirmation email, no domains and no one is responding to my tickets.

Stay away from them..

Damn you should've asked before registering.. You need to do a chargeback asap!

I also registered 5 domains there and only 2 got 'accepted' while 3 got 'rejected'.. they charged for all 5 though.. $4 each.. I told them to return the money for the ones 'rejected' but they refused.

I thought that let's consider the regfee $10 per domain and moved on.. but later on when I was checking the FAQ for push and transfer details, I found out that they charge about $18 for transfer-out!

It was a waste of time and money.

Damn, thanks. Glad I registered just 5. Any tips for cheap .co.uk?

Have never regged a .co.uk.. GD codes might work..

Check out Namezest.com and Domcomp.com for the prices.

DynaDot has .co.uk for $7.99 which isn't bad.

Can you sell domains held at Names.co.uk and is the transfer process straight forward? If you were to list them at marketplaces is the transfer process relatively simple?

The domains I have at names.co.uk haven't sold yet so I can't say whether it's straight forward or not. I hope it is.
