Default Easyspace domain hosting ?

Anybody got any experience of Easyspace to host websites? Mine needed to be renewed and these seem about half the price of what I'm currently paying....

I moved from them to fasthosts. I found easyspace to be difficult to deal with, they had an unreliable service, and not particularly quick access times. They may have improved (this was just over a year ago)...

Unrealiable as in lots of downtime? mmm - just checked FastHosts out and they wont touch 'adult' material so no good for me.

Default Stay away from these *******.

Easyspace are the worst bunch of lowlife d1ckheads I have ever had the mispleasure of dealing with. One of my sites was down for 3 months (which they still charged me for) and resulted in one of my online businesses going down the shoot. I now use oneandone.co.uk and have had no problems at all. In fact they are VERY quick in sorting out any issues you may have.

Ok maybe not Easyspace then...but think 1&1 use overseas (Germany) servers ? which I believe makes searching for Uk sites in the Uk a problem ?

Nope, doesn't make any difference. One of my best performing UK websites is hosted with them and very good performance.
