Moving domain registar

[t121anf]

If I have a domain registered with my current registrar until 2025 and I want to move it to another registrar will I retain the renewal date?

I know there is usually a few for moving domains about, just annoying that I've got domains with 5year subs that may require moving.

As far as i recall ( been a while) the domain is yours for the duration of the time you paid for irrespective of registering company.

I'd ask your new Registrar and see what they say.

Will do, if only Google weren't being such gits. (ending legacy G suite)

Yeah, same situation I don't think the G-Suite's particularly good value for money. I have a few apps from Play that will get binned which is annoying, currently weighing up Office 365 instead. At least with that you get 1TB of cloud storage.

Yeah i have 365 Hosted Exchange, 2xO365 basic licenses and 2 domains with Namecheap who have been excellent to deal with.

Office 365 really is the deathknell for home MS Exchange and tbh thank god for that. It just takes all the aggro out of it.

It just works.

Already pay for o365 for the OneDrive space, Google is simply forcing my hand to move, otherwise I’d pay.

Doesn’t help having multiple domains and users, cost sharp add up.

As long as my Google account stays which is what appears to be the case, stuff paying £5 a month per user for gmail, especially since I already pay for o365.

Not jumping in yet though, lots of talk of Google bringing out a family plan, can’t see it, but they are getting quite a bit of backlash for this.

I tried going to 365 Family, but they wanted to force me to use a GoDaddy domain... I wouldn't transfer to GoDaddy if they paid me.

I use mimecast at work, not worth it for my private domains. Not enough email to warrant the expense etc.

Most of what comes through is collected through Gmail/ Gmx. Very rarely use my domains for anything but outgoing and the expected ( and wanted) replies.

I use Fasthosts at the moment. Early on their DNS control was crap and I used Zoneedit instead but they've got a lot better over time and very little a dedicated DNS server can do over their settings.

Anyhoo, I'm thinking the whole problem is having an e-mail provider with some reputation otherwise I'd just run a Raspberry Pi hanging off my home fibre connection.

I'll probably end up with a personal Gmail account and just use email forwarding from Fasthosts and "Send As" Gmail's spam filtering is bloody good and (as I have it at work) Outlook is crap in comparison.
