I cancelled my freeola hosting so I can change hosts but I did that nearly 2 hours ago and it's still showing the freeola error page.
BTW I don't have my domain registered with get dotted so I should be able to change hosts fine.

gurr "anyone got any asprins?"

Yep, Freeola have control of it.

You'll have to phone them up to transer it away and have the Tag changed to whomever it is you are moving to.

the tag says freeola

Looks like Freeola have control of it...

And what the hell is that site doing in there! Blahpro?!?

So it was under your Freeola control panel and usable??

Have you done a Domain Lookup (via getdotted.com) and checked who's TAG your Domain is Under (FREEOLA or HOSTEUROPE).

I wasn't charged. the domain hosting and admin links came up along with the domain e-mail link.

so if I wasn't charged does this mean it's not hosted with freeola?

... if you changed the IPS Tag to FREEOLA, then that transfers managment of the Domain from 123 to Freeola, which is why you would have gotten the E-mail that you did.

Are you sure it was the IPS, a single 'FREEOLA' tag that you changed and not the nameservers which would have required two addresses (eg ns1.freeola.com and ns2.freeola.com)

If it was the IPS, its out of 123reg system and out of their control. Were you charged by Freeola to use the Domain on their server?? Did your Web Site actually appear if you weren't charged?

IPS tag rings a bell,
I was just following what it said on the freeola page when I signed up for the hosting.

How often do they check this forum?

Maybe once a month or so!

Ring them. It's during the day so people will be there.

If they don' answer. Keep ringing.

When you had it with 123-reg, did you change the 'IPS Tag' or 'Nameservers'????

You're not paying because you don't understand? Hmm...not sure that tactic will work. :) Its your responsibility to understand what it is you are doing. At least you'll know better next time. :)
