Cancelling Implications
–
Domain Names are
registered for one year (2 years for .co.uk names) when you
begin and they will be renewed by us. If you cancel your
website package you may have the domain but you must find a
domain registrar or a website host to transfer it to from
us. There will be a charge from the new domain registrar for
this which varies by company but on average it is £10/$15.
Once it is transferred to another website host or domain
registrar it is entirely your responsibility and yours to
keep. If you do not transfer it the domain will be left to
expire. IMPORTANT – You will not be able to
receive any e-mails at any address you had setup with us if
you do not transfer the domain. Even if you do transfer it,
please check with the company to see if they have an e-mail
service included otherwise you will still not be able to
receive any e-mails.

charge is required to keep your website running. The service

payment is not made your website will be suspended until
