Djkanna Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Just a preference if its a lot cheaper I would consider it Generally speaking, for you a US based one may be cheaper (pound > dollar, conversion rate). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can also research on the company in question quite easily on wht. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skooda Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 I suggest cloud3k.com I been with them for 3months. Great service and the staff reply within 2hour max. Well depending on the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe not so good for UK use though Skooda as they are based in Chicago 20 hops. Not bad though depends on the intended use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spudinski Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 RapidSwitch has a sister company which deals with VPSes. But: Last time I tried getting a VPS from them they said they only do custom specs. If you have the knowledge, you can also use Amazon Web Services E3, which is on a free-usage tier.

Dayo Posted November 14, 2012 Author Share Posted November 14, 2012 In the end I went with 1&1 gona be transferring over all my domains/files/DBs in the next week or so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 EUKHost are solid and when I used them a while ago there support was second to none! You'll pay for it though. http://www.eukhost.com/vps-hosting.php In the end I went with 1&1 gona be transferring over all my domains/files/DBs in the next week or so Very bad decision, they have awful support who couldn't understand me on the phone. Considering I have a clear southern british accent I was incredibly confused. Also, if your payment method has expired or generally fails instead of simply cancelling your account they will chase you with debt collection agencies and threaten you with extra charges. Not something I like to see in a company if I'm brutally honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
