Hi,

Have been with another host since February following demise of JSWF but am unhappy with constant downtimes.

Thinking of transferring to Web Hosting UK

Could you just advise; I registered four domains with 123.reg; 1 co.uk, 2 me.uk, 1 .com. From what I remember when I joined my current host, I simply log in to my panel with 123.reg and change nameservers to point to yours? That being the case, could you tell me how long it takes for these to resolve?

Cheers,
Darryll

Hi, it takes anywhere between a couple of hours and 72 hours. Its beyond anyones control i'm afraid.
Yes 123-reg cpanel and simply change nameservers.

Best bet is to get your web hosting plan then upload your site /sites to the server, then change nameservers. that way the move will be seemless and you won't notice the changeover
