"From very first contact Hostworld put me at ease, explained the process and assured me that they had everything in hand. And they did! They migrated our complete website to their servers, made sure everything was working as it should, and kept me informed of their progress."
"My experience with HostWorld.uk and the service as well as the quality of tech support I’ve received from them is, without question, one of the best if not the very best I ever had from any hosting provider. My migration to you will be my last. Thank you so much guys. Great job."
"Thank you very much for the excellent service I have received from Hostworld. My emails work very well following the help you gave installing my new domain on all my devices. My internet and email security has been greatly enhanced, my server space increased."
"I just want to say a massive thank you for your service. I run a music forum and people begged me to do a virtual party for the easter weekend during the COVID lock down, live DJ's etc. After many hours of trying different providers, youtube, facebook, twitch and so on..."
"Josh has been attentive to our needs from the word Go! Absolutely amazing support and I cannot find a single fault with their service at all. Highly recommend these guys. We're with them for the foreseeable!"
