I had got down to a list of 10 web hosting providers that seem to have good reviews and testimonials. I thought I would try one of the less out there providers as my previous provider was advertised everywhere but they were so big there was no love for their providers and the customer service was appaling.
I went onto Storminternet.co.uk and thought I would try their live chat to iron out a few questions I had before buying. This was an amazing service the sales person was so helpful & friendly and didn't even try and sell me the dearest package but the one that was best suited to my needs. What a great idea to beable to offer immediate service to potential buyers. Once I had brought from them the service just got better their tech guys are friendly and helpful making changing providers a breeze. They have continued to offer great uptime and value for money. So highly recommended.

Very pleased with the service and would strongly recommend Storm Internet.
Have used some of the big well advertised companies and been let down by their customer service in my opinion, down time and high prices so after some research and reading reviews decide to try SI and haven't looked back. Usually these things are too good to be true but in this case the reviews are all correct and the comments fair. The sitebuilder was a bit complicated at first but the clear advice I received through email made the whole process a lot easier and once up and running a lot easier to update. I found the domain name cheaper elsewhere and they suggested that I could buy it myself and then host with them.
Anyone not convinced by this company and the reviews think again, as I really don't think you'll regret the move.

I am very pleased with the service from Storm Internet. The only real bad points is the control panel (Branded version of a custom built control panel) which is slow and clunky in my opinion. It lacks many more advanced features, and does not go into great detail when configuring the domain. PHP and MySQL are both outdated, which makes compatibility and issue with the new GoPHP5 incentive.
I currently have a UNIX Plus account (the best plan available at the time of subscription). It used to be perfectly adequate for my needs, but I would like to expand my website... for which I will require something a little larger and more powerful - a virtual private server, a service not provided by Storm Internet.
Apart from the small flaws, I must say that I am VERY pleased with Storm Internet and it is a great host for people new to website building all the way to large businesses. Their prices are brilliant, and the specification of the webspace provided is brilliant for the price. For £49.99 (~$100), I was given unlimited bandwidth, and 2.5gb webspace. I assure you, unless you are hosting media files then 2.5gb is EASILY enough to satisfy your needs. I was hosting a large forum (1k+ members, 60k+ posts), which filled just over 300mb of space with large backup files stored on the server.
I would happily recommend Storm Internet to anybody!

At last a hosting company who have it all, excellent up time, friendly efficient customer service (email support), value for money and a variety of plans.
Found Storm Internet through chance on a Google search and thought I would try hosting with them as I was completely unsatisfied with my larger well known hosting supply.
I have been with them just over a year now and there was no question about whether I would renew or not, as soon as the reminder email came through I paid up. Would recommend them to anyone big or small, one plan or more.

I would strongly recommend Storm Internet (and have done to a few friends) for anyone's hosting packages whatever level they require.
Support requests are dealt with quickly and in a very friendly and professional fashion. All my questions have been answered very quickly.
They are the best I have come across and will be keeping my website with them come my renewal date.

I had been let down by my previous host so was very sceptical when I came to Storm Internet but they have provided me with very reliable hosting and excellent customer service.
I now host a few sites with them and am completely satisfied and will do further business with them over the future years
Would recommend to anyone, the big well known sites are not always the best, these guys care about their customers

After fishing around I came across this company through a search engine.
After reading their testimonials on their site I was still had my concerns as had been let down in the past by other large hosting companies but everything I read about Storm Internet was correct and I am happy and really would recommend to anyone looking for a hosting company.

Storm Internet offer a variety of hosting packages with an emphasis towards the professional web developer. Their packages are very affordable in comparison with many other hosting providers, plus contain a vast amount of useful features. Online control panels and user statistics are provided as standard.
They also have an exceptional discount scheme in place, that offers existing customers very impressive discounts towards future purchases.
In addition to all this, their support team are extremely helpful, efficient and prompt.
I would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone looking for a reliable web host, that offers an exceptional hosting service.

I was recommended to Storm Internet (www.storminternet.co.uk) around a year ago through a friend of mine and I have no regrets at all.
Storm Internet have been nothing but helpful with a great technical support who answered my query both quickly and efficiently.
I will continue to host my site through them and will recommend them to anyone.
