For the small amount it costs to register a domain name with them its worth
making a dummy run with a domain name you don't intend to use. Better safe
than sorry.

I'd be very interested to know what happens when you take up the apparent
way out of their onerous agrement. Please let us know if you try it out.

BTW I've raised this issue on another discussion forum and may get some
advice from there.
