Question

Where is the cheapest place to get domain names from - probably the .me.uk ones.

.me don't get cheap until May 2002.

See http://www.nominet.org.uk/meuk/questions.html

If you go somewhere very cheap like http://uk2.net/ make sure you read the T&Cs properly. They might cheap to register but they have a nasty habit of charging a release fee if you want to leave them at some point.

IMO, pay a little more now and go with somebody Lee - http://www.titanhosts.net/

Great thanks - I don't mind paying the inflated price if it's only a 1 off and the renewals are cheap. I want to get a name for my daughter and all the .com etc variants have gone, but I can get her firstname.me.uk which seems like a good idea.

Make totally sure you read the smallprint. We've had customers who get charged upto £50 !! to move their domain to us. Madness.
