The .UK Registry insists the charge is being introduced to cover the administrative cost of transferring domain names.

Up until now, the task - which includes a number of checks to ensure that any domain transfers are above board and legit - has been done free of charge.

£35 to cover administrative costs? What a bunch of BS.
