I use enom.com for all mine and am happy enough with them. All on-line, but
their system is easy enough to use. I pay about $8 a year per domain.

I've used freeparking.co.uk who currently allow free transfers in for
co.uk domains. I think gTLDs cost something. Pricing seemed OK last time
I looked around, and you're not held for ransom.

Never had to talk to them, all queries have been via their website and
resolved within a day or two (pre & post sales enquiries rather than
technical problems).

I use 123reg. Haven't needed their customer service, but they're cheap,
everything's web-based, and it works.

Once you're logged in, and start to initiate a transfer in, there's an
info page that tells you the tag is 123-REG. The tag is just a reseller
ID used by Nominet (the .uk registry), not a password of any kind, so
I'm sure they'd tell you it by email.

and given, when you am get your head tilted far enough back to see; he
is an ugly fucker, even by ukrm standards, it maybe as well to give the
management something else to focus on should they ever have the
misfortune to meet him in person.
