Mr Site witholding my domain name

[landscope]

Hi Guys,

Please help. I am a mr site member for a couple of years now and They wanted £39.99 to renew for the year. I forund the pro version of their web site/hosting service for just £25 and not the £100 that they want so have bought it. They will not allow me to move my own domain name to the new site. Can anyone help me please as I feel this is unfair.

Please see my corrispondance below, I am in red and the mr site guy is in lime.

Hi There,

I have bought a copy of mr site pro and as my current subscription has expired I would like to move my Domain on to my new Account but it will not let me do it. Can you please help me and let me know how I should do this. Every time I try to register it to my new Mr Site Pro account it tells me that landscope.me.uk is already in use.

thanks in advance

Hi,

Thank you for writing us.

Your domain name: landscope.me.uk is still active and for it renewal date is 09-Feb-2012 that is way you are not able to activate your new account with this domain name and it can not be done by the end of this and and even after 09-Feb-2012 it will take around 60-90 days(not fixed) to get it available for use.
You can activate any other domain(new domain) with this activation code and if you want same domain then please renew your account. You get 30 days for renewal after renewal date. Renewal date was 09-Feb-2011 for your Mrsite account and you have time to renew your account. To know how to renew please visit this link - deleted
You can also pay by Paypal for renewal. To do this login to your PayPal account and send payment to [email protected] (make sure to send your SiteID and purpose of payment while sending the amount)


Please let us know if you require any further assistance.

Hi Rajdeep,

Am I wrong in thinking that I am unable to move my domain to my new mr site
account. I was under the impression that as I was currently listed in the
nominet whois that I could move it to either another service provider or
indeed keep it with yourself but on another account. This is surly not an
issue by nominet but to me it looks more like an issue with MR SITE. can you
confirm to me that you will be able to move the domain name currently
registered to myself to the new MR SITE PRO account that I have bought. I am
not interested in spending £39.99 on the standard version when I have bought
the Pro version for just £24.99.

So please once again can you sort out the domain name and move it over to my
legitimately bought version of mr site.

Thanks in advance


Hi,

Thank you for writing us.

I sincerely apologize but we would not be able to move your existing domain to your new Mrsite account. You can activate your account with any new domain name.
For old domain as I earlier wrote you, you need to renew but as you don't want to renew then please accept my apologies because technically it is not possible to move your domain to your new Mrsite account. I hope you will understand it and co-operate with us.


Please let us know if you require any further assistance.

Hi there,

Can you please explain why it cannot be done? I do not understand why it is
not technically possible. Surly it is a matter of moving it as you would
move it if I was moving to another service provider.

I can understand that you would like to make the most money possible, but I
am not prepared to pay £99 for something that sells at £25.

Thanks in advance


Please can someone help me as I am new to all this.

Thanks in advance

I think you have to check the policy of the old host you are with right now. I think they cant move your domain its because it is not active since you fail to renew it. So I guess they are asking you to pay first so that they can activate again the domain and move it to the site you want
