what happens to my domains if my registrar goes bust?

[mlweb]

I want to move my .co.uk domains from my present registrar as I don't like what I have been hearing about them. The only good thing about them is that they are well established. If I moved my domains to a less well established company and it went bust or closed for another reason what would happen to them? Thanks.

You go to Nominet for help as per their FAQ

How can I change my registrar (tag/ISP/registration agent)?

If you wish to move your domain name from your current registrar to another, firstly you should contact your current registrar and ask them to move the name across to the new provider. If your registrar refuses to do this, or you are unable to contact them because they have ceased trading, you should contact Nominet and ask us to move the domain name for you.
