Does anyone know how long it will take for a .co.uk domain to become available for registration after the expiry date has passed? My hosting company claim they technically "own" the domain and want me to pay about £40 for it, so I'm refusing to renew. I'm assuming they won't renew the domain themselves as they have no use for it - so I am going to take the risk and try to re-register it myself once it's expired.
