The server works adequately and the network connectivity is fine as well. A couple of times though I’ve experienced some problems with my e-mail account. There’s also an impression that resellers are’nt exactly the highest item on uk2’s list of priorities. For instance, we get only ticket support while others have live support at their disposal as well. And tickets take time, even if it’s an emergency. I prefer not to tag every single query critical though many do just that – got to [...]

I prefer to control everything that even remotely affects my business, including the quality and details of the services rendered by my hosting provider. Fortunately, UK2 appreciates it and allows me adequate control over my dedicated server. I get to install any applications I want, decide on the overall configuration stuff of my server, make my own judgments and decisions. UK2 doesn’t meddle beyond their usual responsibilities, and for that I’m grateful. Perhaps, it’s not as important [...]

UK2 is a great problem solver, no argument there. Whenever some problem arises, they usually fix it in a matter of hours max, sometimes even without my having to contact their tech support. A trait most welcome in a company of their stand, yet one you have every right to expect. Delays happen, however, so you may want to use live support once in a while, although I don’t have to do this often myself. This issue with tech support is the only one I’ve been able to detect sofar. They do know [...]

After evaluating pros and cons, I finally joined uk2. Of course, it was a risk, but the only way to see what a provider is capable of is to witness it personally, ignoring the usual marketing stuff. First impression – they do make mistakes but they don’t neglect their responsibilities. If something goes wrong, they seem tot take it seriously enough to make it right as soon as possible.

UK2 is a good hosting company with major support issues. Sometimes I get the impression that technical support isn’t up to the task. I don’t if it’s too many orders for them to process or something else, but I had to wait days for my problems to be repaired on more than one occasion. Not exactly my idea of problem solving. On the other hand, I don’t need to turn to them often enough to become really frustrated – things go smoothly usually.

What can I say, uk2 is a reliable company if you do the relying with caution. Most of the time they are doing a great job, but it takes them some time to fix things when something goes wrong. They will surprise you more than once, that’s for sure. Whether it’s gonna be pleasant or not, I honestly can’t tell. Opinions vary, including mine.

A year of hosting with uk2. Gotta hand it to them - they do relieve you of a lot of pressure. I tried to run the server equipment on my own once – didn’t like it. Too much trouble. With these responsibilities on uk2 I can spend the time and money on more pressing issues. As far as I can tell, uk2 is a reliable company. I haven’t experienced serious trouble in all the months I’ve been with them. They charge a lot, but it’s money well spent.

I’ve long since given up finding a flawless hosting company. Maybe there is such thing as a perfect provider somewhere around the corner, but I don’t think changing providers is a good idea. UK2 does a good job, and even when they fail, they usually repair the damage as fast as possible. With a couple of exceptions of course. Anyway, for me it’s compensated with the fast network and the impressive number of options that uk2 offers.

Before, when you registered your domain with uk2, you get all your emails delivered to your nominated address. I used to find it very convenient since I could own as many addresses as I wanted. But now you can have no more than 5 addresses – extra ones require extra money. But aside from this drawback, I cannot fault the quality of their service.

I appreciate how many customers must a company of uk2’s size have, but they could pay more attention to the efficiency of their customer support. Because now the fact is, it’s not nearly enough to satisfy the needs of their customers. Tickets move too slowly to be of much help. It’s one thing if tech support guys fix your problem as soon as the first ticket arrives. However, some problems require further discussion, and, ticket after ticket, you can find yourself drawn right into it. [...]

My website with UK2 is several months old. No major complaints so far. The service is decent. Changing my hosting plan was a bit of a headache, though. Take my advice – consider carefully what hosting solution you need before purchasing one. Think what features exactly you might want, consult your provider. It’s better to make the right choice from the start. It’ll save you a great deal of trouble in the future.

Don't let them get away with it! Threaten the bar stewards with legal action. How dare they?! Such a shame. When i first used them they use to be great but got complacent. My email has been intermittent for months and finally stopped. It is the lack of support and contact I hate. Problems happen and most are accepting of [...]

I have been with UK2 now for many years and they host multiple domains for me, but the service is diabolical when things go wrong. Last week all the emails system crashed and a week later I still have email accounts I cannot access. I have raised support tickets which have eventually been answered and supposedly resolved the problem, but not yet! I’m still waiting for them to get it sorted and respond. I am in the process of migrating to another host, which is cheaper and offers more [...]

For almost 8 weeks (its now 8 Nov 09) it has been virtually impossible to retrieve email from either of two domains during business hours using an email client. UK2 say their system was working normally, which is untrue.
For the last 4 days, the email system has been a complete shambles. Right now, the status site says that email service has been restored. That is untrue. Emails to me from trusted contacts have disappeared without trace - including some that were already visible on [...]

Absolutely atrocious. With the e-mail server problems of the last few days, I have completely lost faith in them. Yes, any competent company should be able to manage a mail server. I would be very surprised if all of our e-mails on the old server aren't lost, and will not be transferred to the new server. I can't trust their assurances any more and will be switching to a new provider.
Just thinking now about how good their e-mail system was in the past- and how many potential clients I lost [...]

On 3-6 Nov 09 UK2.net have had a problem with email causing a loss of email facilities to customers over 48 hours. This sort of problem happens (what is the problem? They have not said? They need to be honest and open), but their failure to provide frequent and accurate updates on the problem has been totally inadequate. Their projections as to when the problem of delayed emails will be resolved have proved hopelessly optimistic. To have a most recent posting that is 24 hours old stating [...]

UK2 - a waste of space - quite literally. Since day 1 they have delivered poor performance, awful customer service - in fact it's non-existent customer service. Email is the worst element - it's down more than I care to mention and when you try and move your account elsewhere, they make it virtually impossible. We run a small business that depends on email communication from our customers - and this just makes us look crap. And when you complain to UK2 - you get the deathly silence. They just [...]

An update – they have frozen my account, I am unable to transfer my domain names, and they have not given me a refund – I have only been with them four weeks.
With the sheer frustration, headaches, and anger, I have to say to all - do not go anywhere near these people, they will take your money and just give you grief.
THEY ARE ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE.
I recommend that anyone with problems report UK2.net, or they'll just carry on fleecing the unwary.

My UK2 website at www.docbrown.info failed on August 6th for no apparent reason. I get 2000 to 6000 hits a day plus advert revenue. Also their account management system doesn't seem to allow me to access some basic statistics like data transfer or how much of webspace used etc. NOT HAPPY!

I have been with uk2 for a few years now. Until recently I was happy with the service (I had a dedicated server). No I've switched to a cheaper package and the problems are coming thick and fast. 1. Asking them to perform a simple ammendment to my setup resulted in a complete loss of my website and a reinstall was required. 2. I have 600 customers and can no longer mailshot them as my site will be taken down and I will be listed as a spammer. 3. My site has now been off line with the [...]

We run a small photography forum hosted by UK2. The forum has a membership of about 300, many of whom are inactive. We installed a program which would contact these members and, if they did not log in to the forum within a certain time, would remove these members from the database. UK2.net defined this as spamming and took down the site - without contacting me for an explanation. The site is still down. I think that this is reprehensible behaviour and would certainly say that the host cannot [...]

Initially impressed by the shiny marketing front of UK2.net i've been left totally dissapointed in their after sales, technical response times and blatent disregard for any SLA in call handling. My site was attached by a phishing scam, taken down by Uk2 without me knowing and has been down for over 7 days. The abuse department cannot be spoken to on the phone and the 2nd line desk are totally useless. Calls are handled on a first come first served basis according to their 2nd line support [...]

I have constantly complained to uk2.net's customer service (now THAT'S a contradiction in terms) regarding one of it's customers using it's hosting to stalk and harass. I have provided proof which includes a letter from the police stating that this person should not continue his harassment.
Unfortunately uk2.net seem intent to allow him to continue to stalk and harass through their service.

Do not bother with this service and frankly, with this company. Their service is expensive and worse, the "service " is utter crap. Their web site is a disaster as navigation is horrible and confusing with NO intuitive flow!
Leave! Leave here quickly and find someone else with whom to do Internet business.
I used them initially as they started off cheap and fulfilled my needs. Now - expensive money grubbing bastards that provide nothing but one headache after another.

They advertise 3 free domains with their Ecommerce package. I got one and was charged for the others. They said it was simple to set up the shop. It might be if you know the ins and outs of cpanel and editing CSS. Even if you do it is hard to amend their very basic templates as they supply no instructions. As yet the free SSL certificate turns out to be self signed and of little use to secure a shop. The support although quick gives the impression of being computer generated replies as it never [...]

I had a defecated server with this company. only for a month because my control panel do not work and they fixed my problem after 10 days and i did not get any money back. They have low prices on their server because they make you transfer all your domain to them and pay. Also the make you have their nameservers because i think (not 100% sure ) they use a virtual server. When you by a server other companies asks you your domain this company do not do that.
