You have to renew at the end of the year.

As Greg usually says, .co.uk TLD's push traffic away if they're your primary domain, it's best to run as a .com

Also, this has been posted a few times.

This has been posting many times before.
Thanks for posting though, for those who didn't know ;)

Have to? You just don't pay and it should expire?

Whats with the "send the code to me"

I think this is a scam and they are going to take money off the text they send you...

[L?KE]

They can't, not unless you sign some agreement.

Has anyone fallen for the text bit yet?

Yeah I got one last night, have the domain. Not sure if it charged me, will check my bill later on orange.

Fallen? It's a pre-caution to verify you're human, any product you order with OVH requires you to verify via SMS, if you're already registered it makes you enter a captcha code. I have a dedicated server with their sister company which I have to manage from the OVH website.

No, it doesn't charge.

You have to agree to a contract with them when registering a domain.

Ah cool. A bit off topic, but anyone know of any cheap/reliable dedicated/vps server providers? :)

AFAIK .co.uk's need to be registered for a minimum of two years. Meaning you get the first year free and then you pay for the second.

I believe this is the way they are doing it, of course if your details are fake they don't have much of a way of catching you - Real details normally results in a "Pay or the bailiffs are coming" - I got one of those letters from 1&1 a while back...

Apparently after the year they take the 6pound off your phone...

[Joe!]

meh its only 6 pounds :/
