I used Hurricane until spring of 2000 and their billing was incredibly slow, often 4 months behind.
I closed/moved all accounts when they failed to close an account as requested by email. I did not
know they failed to closed the account til the bill finally showed up 4 months later. I sent them
a copy of my email (and following thread), but they essentially said they did not believe me and
would not credit my account. I worked with my credit card company to recoup my money.
I have since been using Halfpricehosting.com and hostpro.com and have been very happy with both. I
learned of both companies from this list. Thanks to all who contribute their time!

If anyone knows of such a setup in the US that achieves that cost with that
amount of space, I too would be interested.
But, short of that, at least one solution is Hurricane Electric. They have
a variety of "self serve" web plans, ranging from $10/month on up. It
includes PHP and MySQL, runs on Apache, etc. You get full shell access
(duh), and also 11 or more POP boxes (11 for the $10/month, then it
increases as you go up). Check out: http://www.he.net/spaceservices.html

I thought I had good web hosting, but I don't. They're often very slow and
frequently (I'd say at least an hour every day) my site is inaccessable.
Today I've barely been able to get on it at all.
So I'm moving.
I'm in the UK. Is it stupid for me to go with a US hoster? And either way
who do you recommend? Obviously I want php and mysql support, and a few
hundred megs of space, and NOT paying through the roof. $20/month tops.
