Transfer domain out

I currently have a domain registered with Fasthosts but hosted by Plusnet on the free PAYH package that some of us trialled a few years back.
I'm going to move to a new host because the PAYH facilities aren't adequate for my needs anymore, so I want to transfer my domain out. Is it as simple as changing the nameservers from my domain control panel, or do Plusnet have to do something at their end. I've taken a look at the possible support tickets and it's not all that obvious.
Any help greatly appreciated.

If you are referring to Fasthost control panel then the answer is yes. I assume that PAYH are hosting the DNS. If so then make a note of the DNS settings then revert the nameservers back to Fasthost then duplicate the DNS setting at Fasthost. That way your website will still be at PAYH until you find another hosting company.
I would recommend finding a hosting company that does not make it compulsory transferring the DNS to them and leave the DNS at Fasthost.

The above is correct but you still need to tell support to remove the domain from their nameservers to stop any future lookup issues from people using Plusnets nameservers..
