Hi all,

I'm looking for a good UK based dedicated hosting provider.

SSH/root access is a must. A high bandwidth limit would be nice. Ubuntu distro preferred.

Any recommendations from anyone?

I have had a quarter rack with Northern Colo for over 4 years (Melbourne) and have been very satisfied - http://www.northerncolo.co.uk/

 

Most of their facilities are on Manchester Science Park.

Only who to avoid from me: amenworld.com. 2nd 3 day total outage in 6
weeks just happened.
When you call support, you can't actually even speak to anyone from
their co, its a call centre and they just raise tickets.
Total outages go unacknowledged for > 24 hrs no matter how many tickets
you raise.

If you find a good one doing ded servers for the same price lemme know!

We like united hosting, not the cheapest but good service.

I use http://www.rapidswitch.com/ and find them very good indeed. 
Generous bandwidth, good spec machines, very informative about work being carried out, etc. Good support where I've needed to use it.

I would recommend bytemark as well. We have hosted servers with them for over four years without any major problems.

Hiya

I've used both Rackspace and United Hosting based in London for a few years and both have been excellent.  Both companies have support staff who are very helpful and quick to respond to problems.

great service :)
