Are there any dedicated server companies anywhere in the UK that offer anything even remotely NEAR the US' level of bandwidth and disk usage for the price?
The smallest US servers come with say 100 gig bandwidth, the smallest UK servers, for a comparable price, come with 5 gig! 5!!!!! I mean what the hell is the use of a 20 gig drive if I can't even upload the full 20 gig inside 4 months?!!!

You won't find the same type of offerings in the UK as the US since the bandwidth charges in the UK are MUCH more than the USA. Here's a web hosting company that you can try for good prices in the UK:

Is there any particular reason why you require the server to be in the UK? Most of the time, websites can be hosted on a server located in the US and speed difference is not noticable.

Hello,
Seen some sweet deals in RedBus.
If you going to go with UK location, go with either RedBus or Telehouse (Telehouse preferable).

I've seen some redbus deals going at 300 gigs for less than £100 But you gota look around for special's.
Better looking to europe or even usa for bandwidth though if you intend on using it. Just depends on what you want it for.

I think that's exactly what he said in his post. This company offers
Celeron 533 MHz,
128MB SDRAM,
10 GB IDE disk,
5 GB Bandwidth
per month included
at 89 UKP per month.
This is an example of what he does NOT to have.
