DO NOT USE. Continued unacceptable delay in transferring domain
Shocking experience with these people, from beginning to end. DO NOT USE IF YOU RUN A BUSINESS.
They charge through the nose for their services and when you finally realise you're paying about 10x what you should be paying and try to switch to another provider, they will hold on to your domain for days, costing you thousands in lost revenue.
I have now been almost a working week without functioning email or website because names.co.uk refuse to release the domain, even though I have paid them to do so. I have tried contacting them, and all they will say is it's in the process. This should be instant, in fact, it's the law that it's instant.
Names.co.uk are not legally allowed to do this.
EDIT IN RESPONSE TO NAMESCO's REPLY: I would say that an account that is cancelled on Monday Aug 24 and is still not resolved by Thursday August 27 is almost a working week. It should not require me contacting you to get anything resolved, and the fact that it still isn't resolved even though I did contact you proves my point. The timeline stands.
SECOND EDIT IN RESPONSE TO NAMESCO REPLY: Namesco's claim that the transfer was rejected by Porkbun is in direct contradiction to Porkbun's own version of events, which claims the domain is still being held by Namesco.
I will also add that this fiasco has now been going on for five working days, so yes, a whole working week. Maybe if Namesco put as much effort into fixing this issue as they did trying to conjure up reasons why it isn't their fault, it would have been sorted days ago.
I would also like to highlight why this came about in the first place. Namesco's domain renewal price is £65.89. This is in comparison to pretty much every other provider out there which charges £5 or less. It even charged me £12 to get my domain transfered, which it has failed to do. If this is not a clear breach of the law, I don't know what is.
Again, I would urge you DO NOT use this sham of a company.
THIRD EDIT IN RESPONSE TO NAMESCO REPLY: Despite repeated messages from the Namesco support team claiming they have fixed this issue, along with denials on this site that they are to blame, my domain remains trapped at namesco. This has now been going on for a full calendar week. All I receive is messages telling me they've released the domain and to give it 24-48 hours. Of course it never happens. My domain is still registered with these people at Nominet despite my having paid to have it released days ago. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. THE FUTURE OF YOUR BUSINESS DEPENDS ON IT.

UPDATED RESPONSE
We understand that trust may feel broken at this stage, but we'd encourage you to verify this independently. Nominet, the .uk registry, holds the definitive record of the transfer status and can confirm the process and timeline for both parties. As it stands, the domain has been unlocked on our end and is simply awaiting acceptance from the receiving registrar to complete.
--------------------------
Hi, thank you for sharing your experience, we understand how disruptive it is to be without email or a working website, and we're sorry this has been stressful for you and your business.
That said, we do want to correct a few points, as our records tell a different story to the one described in your review. You processed the transfer-out fee on 24 August, and on 25 August the tag on your domain was updated and released to Porkbun, the registrar you were transferring to.
However, our records show that Porkbun themselves rejected the transfer request on their end. This means the domain was released promptly from our side, and any delay in the transfer completing was on the receiving registrar's side, not ours.
The first contact we had from you was on 26 August, when you called to chase progress. We'd also mention that there was no contact from you before the transfer-out fee was paid. We'd have welcomed the chance to talk through your account, pricing, or any concerns beforehand, but unfortunately that conversation didn't happen before you decided to move on.
We understand you're frustrated, but based on what we can see, this wasn't a case of us withholding your domain, the transfer was actioned promptly and the hold-up sat with the gaining registrar. We have a full audit trail on our side confirming this timeline, which we're happy to share should you wish to contact Porkbun for assistance with the transfer.
If you'd like to talk this through directly, we're happy to do so.
Kind regards
Names.co.uk are absolute scammers. £22.99 taken from my account for something I never wanted (Resolved)
Honestly, I am absolutely furious with Names.co.uk and the way they have dealt with this.
About a year ago I was looking for a domain. I checked Names.co.uk because they seemed to have a good price for the first year. I tried to buy a domain from them but the payment didn’t go through. From what I remember I tried twice because I can actually see two “Active Card Check” transactions from Names.co.uk on my business account.
The domain I was trying to buy from them wasn’t even the exact domain I wanted. It had a different spelling with an extra P in it. The purchase didn’t work, so I gave up and went somewhere else and bought the proper spelling of the domain I actually wanted.
I completely forgot about Names.co.uk after that.
Then, roughly a year later, I suddenly have £22.99 taken from my business account by Names.co.uk.
I called them straight away because I thought there must have been some mistake. I called them multiple times today and every single time I was told that they would send it to the relevant team and someone would get back to me.
Eventually I get an email telling me that apparently I had manually turned on automatic renewal.
Absolute bullshit.
I did not manually turn on automatic renewal. I didn’t even know this domain was sitting in my account. Why would I manually turn on automatic renewal for a domain with the wrong spelling when I had already gone somewhere else and bought the proper domain I actually wanted?
And the most ridiculous part is that I contacted them immediately after seeing the charge. It had literally just been taken from my account. I wasn’t asking for a refund months later. I wasn’t trying to get something for free. I contacted them straight away and explained the situation.
They still refused to refund the £22.99.
They then started hiding behind the fact that it was a business account and apparently wasn’t covered by their 14 day refund policy. What does that have to do with anything? I’m telling you immediately that I never intended to renew this domain and that I didn’t even know it was there.
The domain has never been used. I didn’t need it. I didn’t want it. I bought the domain I actually wanted from another provider.
Yet somehow I’m supposed to believe that I went into my Names.co.uk account, found this old domain with the wrong spelling, manually switched on automatic renewal and then completely forgot about it.
Give me a break.
This is an absolute bullshit charge and the way they’ve dealt with it has made me completely lose trust in the company.
Take my money for something I never intended to renew, then tell me I apparently manually enabled it and refuse to refund me when I contact you immediately.
As far as I’m concerned, this is the behaviour of scammers.
I will never use Names.co.uk again and I strongly recommend that anyone who has ever used them checks their account and payment details very carefully.
Stay away from these people.
Edit: After this review, i was contacted and they processed the refund. I still stand by the experience but as they have processed the refund, and I’m satisfied with the outcome.

Hi, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're sorry to hear you're unhappy, but we do want to correct a few points for the record, as our account records don't match some of the details in your review.
Our records show three renewal reminder emails were sent ahead of the charge (six weeks, three weeks, and three days before renewal), along with a confirmation on the day itself, all delivered successfully to the email address on your account.
We know from speaking with you that you didn't check the mailbox that the reminders were sent to, which we appreciate is genuinely frustrating when it means something like this goes unnoticed. You do have access to a control panel where contact details can be kept up to date, so this is always worth reviewing to make sure important notifications reach the right inbox. The same applies to renewals, if there's a domain you no longer need, you have the power to cancel auto-renewal for it directly in your online control panel at any time.
I've sent you a message directly to follow up on your enquiry.
Kind regards

Excellent Customer Service Provided By A Human Being
I have been a customer of names.co.uk (previously namesco) for many years. Whenever I have had an issue, normally due to a lack of understanding my end, I have found the staff to be exceedingly helpful, polite and understanding. It is such a relief in this day and age to be able to ring a Customer Service or Helpline number and to actually get to speak to a human being - and not only that - but with the added bonus that the human being is proactively helpful.

Hello,
Thank you for taking the time to share this, and we're sorry to hear about the trouble you've had this morning.
We'd like to get this looked into properly for you. Could you please send over your account details (domain name or account reference) so we can locate your account and check exactly what's happened with the IP block?
In terms of IP blocks generally, please note that some IPs can be blocked on a longer-term basis if they've been associated with fraudulent activity online. This is a security measure to help protect both our customers and the wider online community, so in some cases a block may not lift immediately even after a request is submitted.
We appreciate your patience, and we'll do our best to get this resolved for you as quickly as possible once we can access your account.
