Ok, to cut a long story short i will be looking for a new host reasonably soon so i thought i should ask around and see what's available. Spec wise, i will need 30gbs of bandwidth and about 1gb of webspace, dedicated or vps are out of my budget range right now.

I was looking at unitedhosting.co.uk and surfspeedy.com, thoughts? Recommendations? (Please don't plug your own hosting companies). Price isn't really an issue, i'm after service, uptime and speed.

Regards.

If you say you can't afford a Dedicated server VPS etc.. but then say budget isn't an issue? Which one is it. Can you afford it or not? Some VPS's are more reliable than a shared account.

There is a big gap between paying several hundred for a decent dedicated server and $30-50 for a reseller account. I can't afford a server at this present moment in time but i can afford to get a decent reseller.

Surpass Hosting are great, but they can be annoying at times if and when they go down..

So I wouldnt go with them if i were you. That's who I'm with though.

Best place to start is with how much storange and bandwidth you will need? I'm guessing Linux/Unix platform?
