Hi there

Apologies if I haven't put this in the right place. Has anyone used http://www.domains4less.co.nz/ for domain registration? I need to move some domains and am looking for a decent provider.

Please note that I don't need hosting, email etc. Just domain tools.

Cheers

Mines held with them. 3 years on and no issues.

They are just a spinoff of one of the major Domain registras in NZ. As Norman Ross is to Harvey Normans.

They are cheap as the support costs should you be a complete noob and need it :)

I have several domains registered with them and had no problems at all. Good value too.

No issue with them so far.

Their domain management website/control panel is ok, good enough to do the job. Definately much better than domainz creaky old one for example.

Cheap tuesdays, $20 for .nz domains.

Only HostingDirect is cheaper and their reputation is well not so great

5 cents cheaper, although they don't charge for phoning them . Love their spelling for 'showen' instead of 'shown' on their homepage. Looks like a Joomla template website.

I moved away from them because they refused to do GLUE records for nameservers.

Just a simple "we don't do those" was all they said.

It only costs for you to call them (0900), otherwise email support is free, and fast.
They usually get back to you with a few hours, and I have never had a problem with their service.

Highly Recommended!
