I have a few sites on a VPS but decided that really it is to much for my needs, so I thought I would see what sort of plan I could get on a reseller account.

All users on my sites are based in the UK so preferably wanted a host in the UK but from previous experience UK hosting is extremely expensive compared to the US but I managed to come across Goscomb.co.uk.

I fired an email to sales with a few questions and promptly got an email back answering all my questions.

With this I decided to sign up to give them a try.

The account was instantly setup and 5 minutes later get a Email from Dan welcoming me aboard. :D

My VPS is currently running Cpanel but Goscomb use DA. On their site they mention being able to restore Cpanel backups to DA. I backup one of my accounts on my VPS to my Goscomb reseller account, email support and within a few minutes my Cpanel backup is now ready to restore into DA. Very impressed.

I have emailed support a few times and 90% of the time get a friendly reply within 10 minutes and the most I have had to wait is 30 minutes.

The server is not the biggest spec I have seen but load is very low (highest seen is 0.5) and speed is VERY VERY FAST to the UK.

The only site I have moved across so far is www.bik3r.com but if things carry on the way they are I am more than likely going to move the rest of my sites over in the next few days.

I think I have stumbled across a gem here and will write a 1 month review.

At the moment you can get 10% off with this code WHT10PERC and also get double storage space.

Why does this come off as an advertisement? :rolleyes:

P.S We need more 'I just got setup' reviews on this forum. :D

??? How does this come across as an advertisement?? I have given you a link to one of the sites I host? My main site which I will be moving over shortly (www.ragit.com) is still hosted on my VPS. My VPS provider at the moment is slhost.com who I cannot fault in anyway. Support there was excellent and speed from the US to UK was also excellent it is just more than I needed.

All I hear is people saying that customers never report on good experience only bad, so here I am giving a review of a host who so far has been excellent.

Next time I will keep quite and only every comment when I get mugged over by a host :eek: :rolleyes:
