Default Web Hosting recommendations

I've been with UK2.net for about 9 months and to say their service is appauling is an understatement and now they have suspended my domain for memory overuse.

Could anyone recommend a decent alternative because I would rather cut my losses and register a couple of new domains in the meantime so I can run side by side and them dump them.

I'll be needing mysql for the forum, etc.

I've looked companies such as fasthosts and ukfast but this times I think I'll pay a little more for improved service.

Thanks,

Mark

Titan Internet. I've had my domain and site hosted with them for about six years and they have been absolutely fantastic. Support is second to none.

I use fuzioned.com. Server is excellant and 24/7 support. I called them out once as I was unable to see my site. Turns out I forgot to pay my bill but it was all resolved in 3 minutes.

Thanks guys, since I'm contracted to UK2 until Feb 09, I'm starting to investigate alternatives now.

I've never dealt with a company (UK2.net) that delivers such poor hosting and customer service, so the sooner I can move the better.
