Angry New Domain Company needed

I currently have 3 domain names (harehill.co.uk, lemarsh.co.uk & nhafc.co.uk) registered through Firevision - which it appears is going/gone bust.

I need to transfer the registration to another company, and for 2 it is easy - I-Web Solutions, which also host 2 of the sites. The Tags belongs to firevision, and the Name Servers are ns1.i-webserver.co.uk 67.18.157.122. This means the only problem I have is when they come to expire (one in 10 days time). I believe I have to pay MNominet £15+vat to transfer the Tags to I-Webs (grumble, mumour, no comments about them being non-profit etc.etc.etc)

However the 3rd domain is not technically hosted anywhere in its own right, but is pages are 'parked' at one of the other sites (i.e. there is a sub-directory of harehill, which the www.nhafc.co.uk points to). Again the Tag is Firevision (another £15+), but the name server is violet.firevision.net 213.210.25.10, which is not working (therefore no page).

Can anyone recommend a Domain registration, that only forwards the URL. I do not believe I-Web can do this (if they can, then great). I do not really want to host directly on i-web for this account, due to the cost (not my money, and funds for the football team are tight - just like the Treasurer, who is not happy in having to pay to transfer the domain).

Any suggestions greatfully received.

Re: New Domain Company needed

I register all my domains though www.123reg.co.uk and they forward the URL.... I am not sure if you can transfer a domain to them that you didn't register with them though...

Re: New Domain Company needed

Yes you can.

Please note that we currently accept transfers for the following extensions:-

.co.uk, .me.uk, ltd.uk, .org.uk and .sch.uk £4.99 .uk.com, .uk.net, .gb.com, .gb.net and .eu.comFREE .com, .net and .org£19.99* .info and .biz£19.99*
* The domain will be renewed for an additional year during the transfer process
I use them and www.1and1.co.uk for my domains, but can't you just have the domain as an addon domain with I-web, i.e as it is now but not parked, so that you change the nameservers to I webs, you may need to contact one of the I web people to see about getting the tag changed though.

Re: New Domain Company needed

The problem is....

His domain is registered with firevision.

Firevision have gone bust....

As a result... nobody is updating the tag for him. Therefore, the only people able to change the tag are nominet. But they want £15+vat for each domain, plus then he will have to renew it on top of that....

Basically, the issue is he cant transfer his .uk domains to another registrar as he is unable to change the IPS TAG
