Because .uk transfers are a push / pull process, you must initiate a transfer request with us and send a request to the losing registrar. Contact your current registrar and request to re-affix the domain name to the ISP tag "NETEARTH". This initiates the transfer process.
No matter the order in which requests are sent, however, if you initiate the transfer with us first, you must send the request to the losing registrar within a week. If you initiate the request to the losing registrar first, you must initiate your transfer with us on either the 8th of the current month or the 8th of the next month, whichever is closest to the current date.
Note that .uk domains do not use authorization codes or registrar locks
