Ok, 1&1 have pulled the bisiand.me.uk domain without giving me any chance to transfer it away. I strongly recommend you keep away from that company. I won't link to them in case it is considered as some form of endorsement.
Luckly I foresaw this and already had a new domain name in place. At this moment in time:
- bisiand.me.uk does not resolve
- I've lost all page rank I ever had
- my rss subscribers (and there are at least 2) are lost, unless they read the above post and bother to resubscribe.
- the various sites disseminating my rss feed will need to be informed.
- my email addresses are dead. I have to make sure email gets to petersblog.org and I have to tell everyone my email address has changed.
I've got some work to do.
I asked 1&1 how to transfer my old domain as a technical query and they did reply with a standard response but it does not look like a straightforward matter. I have to sort something out soon.
Not sure there is a lot of point in writing this as few will ever know it exists. However, one day google will index it and I hope my opinion of 1&1 dissuades at least one potential customer.
