I have a domain ( .co.uk) registered with Plusnet. I'm now wanting to move it so I have flexibility of isp choice.
My main use of the domain is for personal email and a limited website.
In transferring the domain what I'm looking for is:
Easy transfer of my domain to the new registrant
Email: IMAP with storage up to (say) 5GB; automatic forwarding leaving email on my storage (i.e. copy not move); transfer of email currently on Plusnet servers; additional email accounts on domain can be created if needed.
Website: Hosting of limited number of web pages; control panel to add more facilities if needed; limited storage space; limited traffic; ability to enhance by changing contract if needed.
Help facilities: Good online documentation; phone support (not at premium rate); response to email queries/ticket system.
As someone who has not moved a domain before I would be grateful for any advice on doing this and recommendations as to which company to choose. So far I have looked at 123-REG and Krystal Hosting.
Many thanks for your help

I can personally recommend https://netnerd.com/ (Was FVS Free Virtual Servers). I've now moved three domains to them in the last 18 months based on my initial tentative move. 😊
Typical support response time 15 - 30 minutes. (And responses are good and appropriate)
Uses CPanel.
The last site migration was completed and operational in about 3 hours.
Give them a call.

I've been using Ecohosting https://ecohosting.co.uk/ for a few months now for an email account on a new domain. Service seems to be fine, cant say about support since ive not had to use it. The basic web hosting and email is really good value at £14.99/yr.
