(Answer) (Category) Accessing Services at OA5 / YASK / Irial : (Category) Transferring from another ISP : (Answer) Transferring a domain ending in '.UK'

Domains ending in .UK are held on behalf of the owners by members of Nominet, each of whom has an IPS-TAG which is a key used to allow that member to control their customer's domains, what nameservers they use, who the contacts are etc

To transfer the domain to us the tag has to be changed to OA5's tag OCTARINE and this is usually acheived by writing to your current ISP and requesting that they change it. Here is a sample message:



Dear ISP,
Re: mydomain.co.uk

Thank you for your past services. We now find we wish to change Service provider for our domain. To this end please arrange for mydomain.co.uk to be retagged to IPS-TAG OCTARINE

Thank you


On behalf of mydomain.co.uk



If this does not work then you may have to apply to Nominet to get them to make the change
