TheHostingHeroes Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Hi I am UK based and with the pound v dollar being bad at the mo, its now very expensive for us to use ENOM for our .uk domains. We don't register enough .uk domains a year to have our own IPSTAG. Is they any recommended (ideally UK based) Registrars that plugin to WHMCS for domain Reg? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magga Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Hi there. I have recently found myself in the same situation and for this reason have stopped using eNom to register/renew .uk domain names. I am now using OpenSRS who charge $13 for .uk domains which is nearly $5 cheaper than eNom so perhaps you could give them a try? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHostingHeroes Posted February 19, 2009 Author Share Posted February 19, 2009 enom only charge us $6.95 per yr for .uk ($13.90 for 2) so not a huge difference to move to OpenSRS. works out approx £9.80 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magga Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Unfortunately I get charged $8.95 ($17.90 for 2 years) so it was more worth me doing it! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHostingHeroes Posted February 19, 2009 Author Share Posted February 19, 2009 4Dreg.com i use to use years and years ago, i am sure they have an API, ive contacted their support, but I get the feeling they dont operate as much as they use to ie their website is outdated, still charges 17.5% for VAT when it changed months ago even says so on their site. Ill wait to hear back from their support. hopefully sooner rather than later. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tweaked Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 We charge only $13.10 to the public and 11.10 to resellers using n1e. We are only using Enom for the SSL. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominic Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Excluding the £400 joining fee, the £100/yr membership is only 100/(9.8-5) = 21 domains/year before the membership is worth it...inc the 400 fee that's 100 domains in the first year, but it's a one-off fee so you could give it a life of 3yrs which brings the cost down more. This is also excluding renewals Apart from that, the time saved is probably worth the cost. We waited far too long to sort out our Nominet membership due to a long to-do list and are very glad we did it. But then we now have more than ten times the .uk domains than then - perhaps without Nominet memebrship we wouldn't! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netearth Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 We charge only $13.10 to the public and 11.10 to resellers using n1e. We are only using Enom for the SSL. Is this supposed to be NEI ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
