So you want a paid host, you should try requesting it in the "Paid Hosting" forums. :smile2:

No offence intended mate, but could you please speak proper English so we don't have spend time to figure out what you are saying? :confused:
http://www.enhancedhost.com and http://www.worldzonepro.com are two hosts that I know who offer domains with their hosting and both have been around a long time, so they are not going byebye like all the free hosts anytime soon.

Um, not sure how it works with the domains but both have support forums if you wish to join and ask. I know that worldzone hosting is instant activation though.
You realize that if you get a domain from them that it will take up to 48 hours for the DNS to be updated? If you buy hosting and a domain, and upload your site, you will not be able to see the index page for a while until your ISP updates the DNS.
Here are the two forums to ask your questions, or Gary and Webdude/Alycia/Julie might see this and reply re domains.

Until Dec 31st, we arent instant activate. Your signup gets held in the queue and then manually activated. This is because we have to credit the account for the free month at the time the account is activated. Look at the ad at the top of this forum. Until Dec 31, you get the first month free. After the 31st, the special offer goes bye bye.

'es a fellow brit from London mate...so what d'ya expect mate. :wink2:
But anyway... Wilcouk, you could always just get a domain from http://www.123-reg.co.uk. :biggrin2: I think it's approximately £6.** for 2 years. This only applies to .co.uk domains, they also provide hosting if you're interested.
