    Dreadful. Avoid Switch Media at all costs - because whatever it costs, you'll be better off elsewhere. Their prices have recently increased way beyond general inflation, despite the fact that their approach to customer service has gone the other way, deteriorating to a level somewhere between indiff ...

    I am really unhappy with Switch Media. Initially it looked like good value but they have hiked their prices. I am definitely moving away from them although they seem to make this hard to do and want to make charges for doing so even at the end of the contract period.

    I have just been appointed by a client to move a number of domains from Switch Media to a new (cheaper and better) web host. Switch Media have levied a charge of £950 to unlock the domains. They also require a fax to prove that my client 'really' wants to move the domains. I thought these kind ...

    I've been with Switch Media for 4 years. Initially I was very satisfied with the pricing(£7.99 per year for a domain) and service. However I am now battling just to transfer my domain name away from the company, who now see fit to charge me £45 a year for the exact same service. When I t ...

    Overall I have been happy with the service really. I have a named person to contact if I need any help and to be honest, this is very rare as with most companies you just get the next person available in the call centre. Unlike other reviewers I haven't experienced any down time and out of several c ...

    From the moment I ordered a Virtual Server I had problems; The service worked fine as far as I am aware. Further to this, Switch Media's support was ok but they made me feel as though they were doing a favour, when in fact, they did absolutely nothing to resolve the problem within the required SLA. ...

    Switch Media is a good all round business web host.
    Fast data transfer rates - can burst movie files from their servers really quick my old web host throttled me down.
    Although nice having UK based tech support staff, cant get them in the evening
