how do i know that you will still be here after a month?

[tortellini]

please tell me:

-> MAX bandwith
-> MAX webspace

unlimited sounds like... I'm cheap, I'm soo good... and next week I've gone away or closed my company )
sorry, this is my opinion.

speed is REALLY great.. therefore... are the unlimited accounts also in Europe?

And last comment... it's a pitty that I can only get to an address, making whois on your domain... and there is no info about were you are located on your site.

I'm not here trying to make you look bad... the fact is that I'm interested in your offer... and your Faq is not open....

[TechnoHosts]

I'm not quite sure why you could not recieve a WHOIS, but were in Ohio, USA. The accounts for $100/year are situated in the UK. For dedicated plans the Servers are in Columbus. I can fully ensure you that were going no where, and to chose your host with confidence.

[tortellini]

thanks for the really fast reply. I was able to see your info in whois... but not on your site. Anyway... speed in UK is excellent... and I'll keep an eye on you

[Synergy]

Aren't bandwidth prices in UK expensive?

[WildWayz]

TBH - this account sounds very much like a Fasthosts reseller.

And Fasthost disable any account that uses over 3gb or 5gb BW a month (from my memory).

Bandwidth prices in the UK are very expensive even though they are beginning to fall (ie. quality E1 for just over £1.2k per month). If they can't successfully offer unlimited data transfer in America (source: believe me they can't after reading nearly 100k posts and thousands of host reviews) then they certainly can't in America. Data transfer in the UK varies from £7/gig (approx $11) to £50/gig even as high as £100 per gig in some cases. The very big boys can buy multiple lines in a get the data transfer below £5 per gig. Even the big data centers like Exodus, Global, Level3 which have NOC in London have expensive bandwidth in direct comparison to prices of the NOCs in the states.

The only way they can claim to offer unlimited bandwidth/data-transfer is by kicking people off (say their site is too resource intense) when they're no longer profitable or by letting things run wild and have all the lines saturated hence loss packets, downtime and slow loading sites. For a reseller to say there is no limit is silly, any reseller that thinks so is clearly ignorant, and such limits will be dictated by their provider where necessary.

This all seems to good to be true.
