Registry Updates

.AT Registry Reduces Prices

HEXONET received notice that NIC.AT, the official registry of the ccTLD of Austria, has reduced their prices. HEXONET is pleased to be directly passing on the full savings to our resellers. The following price changes have already been applied to your reseller account and have been active since December 1, 2009:

Reseller: Reduced from 16.54 (net: 13.90) EUR to 14.76 (net: 12.40) EUR

All .IT Domains at HEXONET are now EPP Compliant

HEXONET has successfully migrated all .IT domains to now be fully compliant with dot .IT's new EPP system. The effect of this EPP migration means the following for our reseller's .IT domains.

Each domain has been automatically assigned a new AUTH-CODE
Domain trades are now possible WITHOUT FAX CONFIRMATION
The .IT registry supports a 15-day Auto-renew-grace-period. Therefore, if a reseller auto-renews their .IT domains, then on the day of expiration, HEXONET will deduct the cost of an .IT domain renewal. Any deletions prior to the finalization date (expiration Date + 15 days) will result in an automatic refund of the renewal fees.

.PL, .FR and .SE Restores now Available

Restoring .PL domains (example.pl including Third-Level .Pl domains, such as example.com.pl, example.info.pl, etc.), .SE domains and .FR domains are now possible. The pricing for restores are as follows:

.PL domains (example.pl): 89.25 (net: 75.00) PLN
Third-Level .PL domains (example.com.pl, example.info.pl, etc.): 77.35 (net: 65.00) PLN
.FR domains: 17.85 (net: 15.00) EUR
.SE domains: 297.50 (net: 250.00) SEK

No More Set-up Fee for .JOBS Domains

HEXONET is as of immediately no longer charging the annual set-up fee of 23.80 (net: 20.00) USD for .JOBS Domains.

Multiyear Registrations of .SE Domains Available Shortly

Please remember that as of December 7th, 2009, IIS (The Internet Infrastructure Foundation) will enable multiyear registrations for .SE Domains. The new registration terms for .SE domains will be from 1- 10 years.

.SE Transfers now FREE-of-Charge

As of December 1, 2009, .SE transfers are now free-of-charge, meaning when a transfer is successfully processed the registration period stays untouched (NO additional year is added on). The change towards the pricing of .SE Domain Transfers was already applied on December 1, 2009.
