Except when you send a support request to Tucows and they just tell you to
go talk to Nominet. :(

We registered a slew of domains for a client who owns multiple
companies. We put the wrong company name on the .co.uk domains and have to
get that changed. ARGH.

Nominet actually got back to us faster than Tucows support (2 days vs 4
days) and all Tucows said was to go talk to Nominet. Gee thanks guys.

Nominet was very clear on the process, but we have to get the client
involved which always complicates things.

Thank goodness Nominet isn't bidding to run .net
