Freenetname.com Reviews

Hello All, Just thought I would let you know that I received an email last night from the team at freenetname. They have redesigned the site (looks really slick) and have opened up domain signups again. It is still FREE and has added features. I am still looking into the features but the one that catches my eye is the ...  Read the complete review

When every other company was plugging thier "free" internet service where you only paid for the phone calls, freenetname went on better. They charge no monthly fee, local dial in costs and then threw in a domain name! Ease To Install: I didn't have any problems intalling/setting up the connection. Mind you, it has ...  Read the complete review

"Quite a while ago I joined freenetname, like many friends who were also considering joining. The only similar offer was from namezero.com who give free .com addresses but they put a banner on them. However, after joining i realised that it wasnt as good as id first thought. The downtime of my site was amazingly high. After ...  Read the complete review

Thousands (or is it millions?) of people within the UK are now regularly logged on to the Internet and starting to capitalise on its immense potential. In order to get online, everybody will have had to open an account with an Internet Service Provider (ISP), which provides a dial up number and will usually also provide e-mail addresses and ...  Read the complete review

Well, quite a while ago I joined up with Freenetname. It seemed to be quite a good offer. I mean, a free domain... When some companies charge hundreads.... Something isnt wright here!! My first domain name, they just took away from me, with no reason. What I think is that if someone bids them for it, then they will sell it without even ...  Read the complete review

Everyone can get their own proper .co.uk domain name for free - so what are you waiting for. Freenetname is an ISP (internet service provider) meaning once you have an account you can use them to access the internet for the price of a local call. What seperates these from others ( freeserve, virgin etc ) is they are the only ones who ...  Read the complete review

having used freenetname for many many months now i feel that it is only fair that people should get the picture. when connecting to freenetname for upload or email from your domain you MUST use their dial up settings and numbers. they do have a free technical help line but the people who staff these lines give the same excuses every time. ...  Read the complete review

When I first heard of this I thought 'great a free domain name now I can have my own wooglie.co.uk for myself and have tim@wooglie.co.uk as my email address, but there are some problems. First of all the access to the internet can be quite slow, but this is the same for most free (0845) Internet Service Providers. Secondly you cannot access ...  Read the complete review

Offering unlimited internet access at local call rate like the other 200 ISP's or so there seems nothing different about freenetname and their isn't because the fact is they do let you register your free uk based domain name (.co.uk ,.org.uk etc) and give you free webhosting but freenetname reserves the right to take down your site at ...  Read the complete review

A free .co.uk domain name? Yes please! I joined FreeNetName a while ago, and have found their service very fast (my fastest connection = 48kbps) and reliable. I now have my own domain name, which looks very professional. Email addresses are provided, along with 20MB of web space. For a charge, you can transfer your domain name ...  Read the complete review

Who can argue with a free .co.uk or .org.uk domain name? I didnt - I have one! Many people are using this isp for just that reason - so If you want yourname.co.uk or whatever takes your fancy - you had better be quick! But then as with all 'freebies' it has its down side - 1) You only get 20mb of WebSpace - which for most is ...  Read the complete review

Firstly i want to pick out a mistake made by doyoo. It is freenetname.co.uk not freenetname.com. They are completely different. I don't see why everyone hates freenetname.co.uk so much. You register with them, dial up and then register any '.co.uk' name you like. It's as simple as that. You only pay the bill for ...  Read the complete review

There is a lot of negative chat on here about FreeNetName. I have bee nusing it for one purpose and one purpose only....Hosting my Website. I got a free domain name of my choosing, I got 25 Meg of free web space, and waht have I given in return to them? Nothing, except a bit of advertising. Saying that, I am doing the same thing by having a ...  Read the complete review

When I first started using freenetname the connection was very good and I had a good download rate for a 56K modem of between 4 and 5 kbs/s. However, my connection to freenetname is now always bad. It can often take several times to connect because it very rarely is able to connect first time. If this were an unmetered ISP this would be no ...  Read the complete review

Freenetname seesm like a good deal at first, but it is less of a deal that you think. Okay, so you do get a freen domain name, BUT it still belongs to FNN, and if you wish to move it elsewhere you have to buy it from them, and as mentioned it is £94. I have been stung like this. Access is via there 0845 dial-up number, which is ...  Read the complete review

After having read a review of Freenetname ISP, I feel I have to respond to the severe criticism it has received. I have used many (and I MEAN many) ISPs over the last two years. Most offer a lot and actually deliver little. Freenetname offers exactly what it says on the tin...A FREE NET DOMAIN NAME! Freenetname is no slower than many ...  Read the complete review

Come on now, in this day and age of unmetered access and high speed ADSL connections soon on the way, how can a company come up with the idea of a 56k line and a minute by minute charge? This ISP offeres nothing new and would have not even got my attention if it were not for the fee co.uk web address that you also get free with registration. ...  Read the complete review

We found their service to be very ...  Read the complete review
