An IPS tag<\/strong> is the label that applies to each ISP <\/strong>or hosting provider and needs to be updated when a co.uk domain name is transferred from one ISP to another.<\/p>\n

Transfer your co.uk domain to xneelo:<\/h2>\n
\n
    \n
  1. Contact the domain\u2019s current registration provider and ask them to change the IPS tag for your domain to TUCOWS-CA<\/strong> (all in capital letters).<\/li>\n
  2. Once your domain registration provider has confirmed that they have updated the IPS tag, contact us<\/a> to complete the transfer and update the authoritative name servers for your domain.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n

    Alternatively, your current ISP can update the domain with their registrar to reflect the xneelo name servers<\/a>. Please email your current ISP your new Primary and Secondary name servers. Should you follow this procedure, xneelo will not be the billing contact for domain renewal.<\/p>\n

    It may take up to 72 hours before all ISPs are aware that your domain is now hosted on xneelo’s servers due to propagation<\/a>.<\/p>\n

    Note:<\/strong> In the event that your current Registrar shares the same IPS tag as xneelo (TUCOWS-CA)<\/strong>, a manual transfer request will need to be submitted on your behalf.
