Whether you’re an existing customer or a new customer, moving your domains to Heart Internet is quick and easy. There’s no need to worry about losing your names, and depending on your extension(s) it could be completely free.
• .uk domains (e.g. .co.uk, .org.uk) can be transferred in for free. When it’s time to renew, you’ll pay just £5.58.
• .com, .net, .org, .info, .name, .biz transfers cost £5, and include a year’s registration added to your domain name for free.
• Other extensions – please see our domain transfer page for details.
When you transfer your domains to Heart Internet, you can take advantage of all these services and features absolutely free:
• Web forwarding
• Unlimited email forwarding (including catch-all email forwarding)
• Free Nominet tag change (applicable to .uk domains)
• Feature-rich webmail
• Full DNS management
• 24/7 UK support
• And more!
If you have accounts with multiple registrars, moving your domains to a Heart Internet account means you can conveniently manage all your domains from one location. Our user-friendly control panel, free features and optional domain credits system mean you get even more value for money, and unlike non-UK registrars there’s no risk we’ll stop selling or renewing UK domain names. There are no hidden costs, and we never charge a leaving fee.

Couple your domain names with our award-winning web hosting or reseller hosting, starting from just £1 for the first month.
post is a bit misleading initially i though great heart has finally sorted this transfer fees issue out.
But unfortunatelyNOTstill charging for all other than .uk : Using an image which depicts all extensions such as .me .com etc w and the post title: Transfer your domain names for free! IMPLIES ALL ARE FREE!
Come on heart sort it out, ultimately you would gain a lot more domain name transfer and renewals as a result, there’s no point in saying all other domain registrars charge a fee also – why not be the first to provide this without fee. you would soon see a higher transfer/ renewal rate to Heart and people would stay with Heart andwouldn’t transfer away to another registrar as they would still be charging a fee to do so.therefore a lifetime of renewals for heart Internet, Makes perfect business sense.
alternatively you could have a similar situation to the .com provide a free year on transfer but still charge the transfer fee.
Darren,
The .UK domains are free to transfer in because we aren’t charged to do it by Nominet. The gTLDs (which .com is a part of ) do have a fee for us to transfer in, which is in fact currently more than we charge our customers.
I’d also point out that our £5 charge is significantly cheaper than other web hosts and we also add an extra year to the registration. If you bought a .com for a year it would cost you £8.49 with us (much more with others), so you are saving £3.49 for that year as well.

hi matt
thanks for your reply although i wasn’t referring to .com domain namesas i have already given heart credit for the way you transfer those, i am referring to others such as .mewhich you charge £19.99 for with no extra renewal period.
I still think heart could gain a lot more domain business by absorbing the transfer costs initially as an incentive to transfer to heart internet, after they have transferred, customers would then stay with heart and renew year on yearas it would cost them to transfer away to another registrar as they all charge.oh well just a thought but i think heart could benefit from it.
