I+had+a+forum+on+another+web+host+that+was+to+large+to+remain+on+the+servers+that+they+offered.+I+spoke+with+Web+Host+UK+who+said+there+would+be+no+problems+with+transferring+the+website+over+and+they+would+do+it.+
I+received+notice+by+email+from+Web+Host+UK+i.e.+UK+Dedicated+Limited+that+the+website+was+transferred.+A+quick+inspection+took+place+and+it+looked+fine.+The+website+was+up+and+subsequently+the+other+account+was+closed.+
It+became+apparent+that+when+using+the+website+a+lot+of+its+functions+were+not+working+correctly.+I+emailed+Web+Host+UK+i.e.+UK+Dedicated+Limited+to+notify+of+such+and+then+the+weeks+of+endless+back+and+forth+emails+started.+
Some+5+weeks+later+one+of+their+tech+guys+tried+an+upgrade+to+the+software+which+left+the+website+vulnerable+to+hackers+and+spammers.+Within+minutes+my+account+was+blocked+and+could+not+even+access+my+Admin+account+on+the+website+as+it+had+been+took+over+by+some+one+else.
This+website+had+over+5000+members+on+and+page+traffic+of+plus+2.5+million+hits+per+month+and+was+climbing+in+Google+page+rank+very+quickly.+But+it+was+to+vulnerable+to+allow+continuing+even+after+I+had+it+checked+by+another+professional.+
There+is+now+another+scenario+that+has+become+apparent+in+the+last+couple+of+days+and+I+will+post+about+this+in+due+course,+but+If+you+was+thinking+that+Web+Host+UK+was+a+good+option+for+you+and+you+was+thinking+of+transferring+your+websites+to+them+I+would+think+again.+
I+would+not+recommend+this+company,+I+am+not+a+competitor+and+this+is+a+genuine+post+from+an+aggrieved+customer.
