Just wanted to ask why you have more than doubled the cost to Transfer a Domain Name from elsewhere you Freeola space???
Also, does it cost anything if we wish to transfer a Domain from Freeola to another provider???
Finaly, why is it you show prices for Internet names and the Transfer costs ex VAT??? Surly it would be more clearer to people if you inc VAT!!! It's just a bit of a bummer when you see domain cost, then goto buy it and find an extra cost has been added.
Thanks.

I just noticed the transfer/renual bit on the getdotted site. Seems that £25 includes the two year renual for that Domain ... ops, sorry. lol
So does that means it's only £5 now to just transfer a Domain to Freeola, without renewing it yet??? or is that still £10???

The two firms I use don't charge for domain transfers at all!! You still get full control over the servers at either site!!

Hey, cjh, thanks for that. It was amd_man who said about not renewing. I agree though - £25 from £10 just sounds like cashing in, and if amd_man is representative, then F are going to find that a lot of their users will just stop registering. I was recommending a transfer to F from another host to some of my friends, but the £25 fee definitely makes it less viable for them.
Maybe F have found that they're getting used by more commercial clients, and they can hike the prices to suit that market, unlike us mere mortals for whom every penny counts. And that goes for the VAT as well - businesses don't care much about VAT inclusive prices.

Well, I was only really moaning as I'd prefer prices to be inc VAT, more clear as to the final costs.
Freeola are one of the cheapest I've come accross ... but you gotat remember they give a lot of extras, not just the name, like other, cheaper places. Webspace, Email (unlimited) PHP, CGI etc...
I am a little miffed as to why it's sudden;y £25 exc VAT to transer when it used to be £10 inc VAT.

Not renewing, because you can get it cheaper elsewhere, or just giving up?
I'm interested because I was considering moving a domain name over to F, but if you know of cheaper options, I'm willing to listen! Php, of course, is a must ..
