I keep most of my domain names on UKReg so today I wanted to move a domain name from easily.co.uk to UKReg but they make such a song and dance out of the whole procedure. I did the whole thing online with Burton Hosting when I did the same last year, but easily insist I fill out a form from a downloaded PDF file then fax it to them or post it.
I don't have a fax machine, which is a stupid thing to use anyway, and I don't want to wait a few days (if I'm lucky) for normal post. I've had a little arguament with them over the phone and one guy eventually told me to attach it in an email, which I have, but now some other fool says it MUST be faxed to abide by company regulations.
It's bloody rediculous, the email I sent is from the same email address that's on the form, the same email address as my account with easily.co.uk and my signature, written by hand, is on the bottom of the form - so what's the difference? If I send it by post it will look exactly the same, if I send it by fax it will be in black and white and a bit harder to read - plus I'll have to go to the library to do it and there will be no connection between the person sending it and my info on the paper.
Some things just seem to be running backwards.
