I went for 1&1 originally, after their site showed £xx/month. Signed over my domain to get their IPStag (before you pay for anything), then came to the final bill which (in hindsight unsurprisingly) asks you to pay yearly and came in higher than I thought. I cancelled, but because they already took my domain under their IPStag I couldn't have control of anything to do with it - because I cancelled the purchase.
I contacted them and asked them to change the tag back (afaik nominet have an automated tool to do it which costs nothing) but oh no, we can't do that sir. A few weeks, lots of toing and froing (with nominet, as 1&1 refused to help) and 17 quid later and I had my tag back where it was originally. The part that irritated me most was that nowhere during sign up or the details of the hosting did it mention that you have to pay annually, I double checked to make sure.
