This is your stumbling block, UK network connectivity is not as cheap as the US and most cheap UK hosts use US servers to get the very low prices the budget end of the market is used to.

We have a choice of lightly loaded Windows or Linux servers in the UK. If interested drop me a PM with your details and definition of "high bandwidth" and we can see whether we can accomodate your requirement.

We've recently started using Weycrest (from a recommendation) and all good so far. They seem to meet your requirements and they are a member of the forum.

Personally, I'd avoid most hosting directory sites as they tend to rank sites by the % commission they can earn from the affiliate links rather than adding any value to the decision making process

Ask about and go with a company that has been good to others and the probability is that they will be good to you.

I've just signed up with meirhosting which is very cheap. Will see if there;s a reason for it being so but i couldn;t find many bad reviews (recent ones).
