Transferring a .net name to us needs to be done in 2 stages as follows:
Your .net domain MUST be unlocked for this entire process and you will need your EPP key from your old host before you can order your transfer.

Note - Copy your website
**********************
If you are transferring your website to us along with your .net domain name then you will need to purchase web hosting with us in advance. When purchasing our web hosting, select hosting only without a domain
(I will use My Existing Domain and update My Nameservers only)

We will then activate your account for you and email you all the account details so you can upload your website to our servers, setup all your email accounts, database's, and anything else you wish to transfer in advance.

Stage 1 - Re-point your DNS
**********************
Once you have an exact copy of your website on our servers, you will need to log-in to your current domain registration company account change your domain names DNS Name Servers.

If you do not have the access to change your nameservers then simply contact your current support department and request them to change your doman nameservers to the ones in your welcome email.

Stage 2 - Order the transfer of your domain name
**************************************
Now all you need to do is place your order for a domain name transfer through our website (Transfer My Existing Domain)

Your domain name must be unlocked, more than 60 days old and you will need your EPP key from the losing registrar/old host.

When you reach the final stage of the order simply enter your current login details for our billing system to add the domain to your account.

Within 72 hours you will receive an automated email requesting your authorisation to transfer the domain name which you must respond to. If you need any assistance with this, let us know, were here to help.

Once this is done your domain name will now be managed WESH UK and we will bill you for it every 2 years with 1 extra year added to your domain.
