It seems there is no way around it, http://support.cloudflare.com/kb/troubleshooting/why-am-i-ge... - so can anyone recommend other DNS providers? (preferably free)

I've had good success in the past with http://www.zoneedit.com/

It's not free but close enough to it for your purposes here.

I use division120.. never had any problems, easy to use, clean simple interface.

Thanks, I'll give it a try!
