Ok! most of 1 and 1 don't offer 90 GIGs, (have not checked the US) they are normally around 30-50 Gigs and charge silly money if you go over it. I also notice they dont update the stats for four or more days if you do get a big bandwidth drain, and then wham! :shock:

My servers - if you get to the limit you get a message by email at 80% - when you hit the limit the package shuts down. so no nasty bandwidth bills. :wink: of course you can get bolt on bandwidth if needed, you would just let me know and I would sort something out.

I can do bigger - the biggest package at the moment is up to 500 Gigs.

Send me an email with expected need and I will give you a cost effective package quote - maybe a 150 gig package or something like that?

Best regards,

Spe3d

cheers man, that sounds spot on! i'll be in touch :D

Not to detract from Spe3ds thing he's got going on here, but I've had no probs with oneandone - other than the excess bandwidth charges - which rarely happen for me and generally occur when we're transferring and swapping wavs around the world.
But there's a part of me that likes to know my site keeps up and running even if I exceed my allocation.
I actually wouldn't want my site to become unusable for even a day, so I pay. It's never a great ammount anyway. Except that one time... :lol:
And they're generally cheaper than many I've looked at.
30mb of space just wouldn't cut it for me personally either - I get that with my ISP account and it soon became nowhere near enough. It's only about 6 tunes, if they're all under 5 minutes.

But let's face it - it doesn't matter what somebody says they like around this place, there's always someone ready to disagree. :P

For FTP you might want to check out the totally free Filezilla client, which works great:

http://filezilla.sourceforge.net/

(or you could of course try good ol' fashioned command-line FTP :D)

Thanks vtx, :)

I will be more than happy to help.

haha, ok i'll disagree, but only to appease you :hihi:

oneandone froze my account when i exceeded my bw. i got a notice email to say please update payment details which i did. 1 week later, my site is down, emails down and i cant even get into administration. i emailed to find out why and turns out they hadnt taken my payment and i had to update my account again...bah

in the end i rang them up to sort it out, came back online in 2 hrs which was ok. ive asked them to make it easier to monitor bandwidth usage, cpanel (installed with ukwebsolutions host) makes it very easy to see bw usage!

edit: pleased to see u use cpanel Spe3d :D

The ,,,,,,,, in my last post was due to an error in my nervous system.

I wish they were white shark teeth and I could give one out to each of you.
However, please take them as 8 thumbs up for everyone's posts.
You've all really helped me out a lot.

Sorry I took so long to respond. Back to the Future was on TV.
Lea Thompson (in 1985) still destroys me, unbelievable.
She's like what, 50 now?

ummm, also, there is a lot of info to compare.

The combination of Lea Thompson (in 1985) and all the web hosting info is making my brain hurt.

I suspect I'll have more questions, or at the very least I'll let everyone know what my decision was and why, but I need to go in to sleep mode fo a while.

once again, I wish those were sharks teeth. (thanx)

Can’t say I like the choice of wording here, looking forward to the clarification of ‘sharks teeth’ I am in the UK and Shark is not a good word to use for sure.

Best regards,
