Advantages: Web and email redirection reliable and fast
Disadvantages: Confusing and now uncompetitive pricing, especially for ad-free web redirection

....org and 9 .co.uk/.org.uk's) from uk2.net last year for a total of £105.63 for 2 years. Looking at their site, you could be forgiven for thinking that 10 domains would cost only a few pence, but you have to multiply all the monthly figures they quote by 24 to get to the two years they actually charge you for and then add in the registry fees and VAT. I roughly worked out their current prices for the same 'Super 10' pack and it seems to come out to ...
...registration company. The image uk2.net projects is slightly schizophrenic. The barely literate content of their website and email newsletter suggest a bunch of hobbyists in a back bedroom, but they claim to be the largest UK host and they push services aimed more at the corporate market like dedicated servers at £25+VAT a month. This review has been fairly negative so far, but on the positive side, I am perfectly happy with uk2.net's actual services. ... Read review

Advantages: Very cheap domain registration
Disadvantages: Restrictions on transferring names out, pop-up window on free web forwarding

UK2.net are probably the most high profile of all the domain name registration companies, currently charging under £10 to register the UK domain name of your choice.I've bought a couple of names from them and cannot fault the service. They offer free web forwarding and unlimited e-mail addresses and e-mail forwarding in the price, but beware, for this you have to put up with their pop-up banner on diversion. You'll have to pay extra to divert without ...
...that you have to pay to transfer the domain name out if you wish to use another host. They claim that this is because they are charging you next to nothing on the name, but since other companies are now offering registration for £9.99 (eg After Domains)without any restrictions, £19 to transfer seems excessive.

Advantages: cheap good maintenance interface
Disadvantages: domain transfer fee, high service costs

...transfer your domain away for uk2.net if you finally decide that a full hosting package is what you need and obviously if that were the case you'd go to somewhere cheaper than uk2. So, again if you only need domain registering and some forwarding then uk2 are cheap and provide a very good hassle free interface to maintaining that. However, if you want more services then they've got you trapped and you'll either pay a high cost for their services ... Read review

Advantages: none
Disadvantages: all

...All this is how UK2.NET operate. You buy a domain and they state very clearly that it is registered in your name but if you do not want to use their services any more you must pay to leave. So who owns the domain then? You or them? I mean i can understand it if you are transfering a domain onto their servers and therefore using their services but NOT when you don't want their services anymore. There are only a handful of domain registrants that will ...
...BUT the big difference here is that they offer you free hosting and some even offer you cgi, php and would you believe it support. Nonetheless though these companies are all out there to keep you buying their other services.
