Award for "Most difficult Host to transfer from"
Oh man, if there was an award for "Most difficult Host to transfer from" One.com would win top prize.
At the time of writing this, I'm still waiting on the transfer of my domain to Google Hosts. One.com say they've done their part and Google say they are still waiting one One.com to change ISP TAG details.
I'm on day 3 of the attempted domain transfer and was giving them the benefit of the doubt.
I though "Maybe Google are taking their time?", so I initiated another .co.uk transfer from another host to Google to see how long it would take.
Answer = under an hour.
Yes, under an hour and I didn't need to provide copies of my passport, drivers licence, DNA sample. Nor did I have to print out a form from the 90s, sign it and email it in. It was automated and completed in the input of new TAG and click of a button.
Reason for leaving One.com?
Prices as follows for THE SAME SERVICE.
2017 - £24.96
2018 - £27.84
2019 - £37.62
2020 - £52.60
2021 - £65.12
The quality of the services over the years has been OK, but purely due to the transfer fiasco, I won't be recommending one.com to anyone anymore, which I often did.
I'll update of/when my transfer is completed.
