4619585 I think thats it

For the letter, yes it's a one off.

For the special offers, you can register more than 1 domain per order as long as they have the same extensions. You can't mix .co.uk and .com for instance on the same order during special offer.

Can you give me your order numbers?

[Nettus]

Hey,

Just woundering, Everytime we register a domain name do we have to do the letter auth thing everytime? or is it just a one off?

can you register more then 1 at a time? because i tryed to do more then one and it was saying i needed to pay for them.

[Ashley]

Still waiting for my orders to be processed.

waiting for domains to be registered now,

Since Nominet requires .co.uk domains to be registered for a minimum of 2 years what happens on the second year if you don't renew?

My guess would be OVH will hold the domain for that second year, rendering it useless to everyone, so if you need that domain, you really should renew it in plenty of time or you will lose it.

I got my letter, put in the code and the domains were registered within 1 minute.
My letter took 2 days to arrive.

[Fenix]

I have validated via SMS and letter and my domain has been registered but it has not been linked to my account on the manager. Has anyone successfully registered their domains and now able to update the DNS?

Give them a while, i figure they do it all manually =)

I'm waiting for my letters

Try and register as much as you can, they want you to put pressure on them, and put pressure on their system to see what they need to improve on =)

[Fenix]

is this offer ONLY for september, do we have to register all 100 in september? or do we have this 100 for a lifetime?

regards

[Declan]

Ive been waiting since the 16th of september ( when i ordered the domains ). Still no letter yet to arrive and ovh not having support on the weekends doesn't help that either.

[S0phie]

Im still waiting for the letter to come

When i changed my address and then re registered the name it didnt ask for sms nor letter it just said it was getting setup which was now 2 days ago now ? :S

What is your order number?

[Fenix]

Another fantastic freebie

will deffo test this,

Perhaps remove the SMS verification, not everyone has a mobile phone, except i assume its to make sure you're a british citizen.

I think the Letter itself will suffice!


regards,
Andy

Suggest you e-mail support or phone up on Monday and ask them to resend the letter. Does your house address correspond with your card address? If not thats where the confusion might be.

The reason OVH are offering 1 year free and not 2 is so that if you choose not to renew with them you'll be unable to register that name elsewhere for a year, and it's likely someone will snap it up as soon as it expires well before you get the chance.
So think carefully, if you won't renew it and you want it, wait until you have the money and buy it flat out.

[Andy]

why would u need 100 anyways.
what can i do with that many

Yeah and think of the renewal fees!!! lmao

[slayer2005]

[JALZOO]

I have no problems ive registerd 47 domains so far.. 15 today and they work fine.

[toxichost]

Here is the response from our robot while proceeding
the sequence registryDomainCreation:
an error has occured : V088 You have exceeded your advised credit limit and any tags


Cheers,

yes. it costs us "the skin of the ass". no choice. .co.uk works in
this way.

[Andy]

Hey,

All of the domains are active, but how comes nominet says that they have been ordered for 2 years?

Because .co.uk domains have to be ordered for 2 years. If you don't want the second year, OVH still pay for it anyway but hold it as inactive so it can be resold, I'd guess.

[craigy2391]

Hey,

All of the domains are active, but how comes nominet says that they have been ordered for 2 years?

[Nettus]

How do you request the confirm letter to be sent out again?

Mine went to the wrong address, forgot to change it.

Ive just registered the same domain again and changed the address in my manager panel

[gregoryfenton]

Guys - did your name on the letter appear in the order lastname firstname? If not it may explain a lot about credit card validation issues

[Andy]

Mine literally came through the door as I read this

[pete_w]

Mine too - Very quick

[gregoryfenton]

\o/ My validation letter arrived \o/

[gregoryfenton]

I take it it's popular then?

:waits patiently for his validation letter to arrive:

[Declan]

Registered 85 domains. OVH are crazy :P Just have to wait for the letter validation for them to become active/complete.

[Andy]

The page (step 2 iirc) needs a "I don't want gold/silver/whatever hosting" option, rather than choosing an option and then deselecting it at stage 3.

Other than that, thanks very much for the offer

I remember when ovh.be did the same, I had tons of .be domains

Gold is free anyway, so why not take it?

Just ordered mine, but only asked for capcha image validation as already done SMS on last order.
Thanks OVH saved me a packet this year on domains.

[Nettus]

We have just sent a letter to you at the following address to enable you
to activate your account:

What the?

whats the point in the sms then???? Is it their way just to spam ya?

[IainK]

I'd rather get the letter for a free domain name as opposed to a server renewal!

[Andy]

Just ordered mine

did it via sms, Now just gotta wait for em to set it all up

Best check your inbox again, I bet you have a letter confirmation unless you've done one by letter already...

[Nettus]

Ahh f*ck it we'll get the letters soon enough, it's monday night I predict in my mailbox Wednesday or Thursday.

[Andy]

OVH is the best host ever

I'd agree with that except for this.

What the hell is the point in SMS validation if you're just going to send me a letter via post anyway? I mean for crying out loud wasn't the point of SMS confirmation for those to avoid being sent a letter and having a huge delay? Jesus man! I was looking forward to having them for tomorrow!

[rickyday]

OVH you are CRAZY!!!

[unclebob]

OVH is the best host ever

[oles@ovh.net]

Hi There,
Ovh will reach 1'000'000 domains as "registrar". 1'000'000 !!

if you want to test the domains, if you don't know Ovh, if you
want the domains for free, Ovh is the registrar for you

We offer the domains for free !! FOR FREE !!

Ovh proposes you to create 100 domains .co.uk (per customer) for free.
No money ! No payment ! Totally free ! All you have to do is to
make the order. Test it ! you can create 100 domains (10 domains
per order) and you have £0 to pay

We need to check the limit "100 domains per customer". That is
why your account has to checked with a code which is sent with
a letter. When you receive the letter (24/48 hours), you valid
the code then your order is accepted and we create your domains
for free. Then you can create 100 domains for free !!

If you want more that 100 domains .co.uk in September, you will need
to pay. How much ? £1/domain ! Hahahah £1 per domains !!

Next year, if you want to renew your domains, you domain will cost
£5.99/2 years. If you don't want to renew, well, don't renew. If you
