😠 Rip Off - Stay Away from FastHosts. They allure you in with low prices and will have hidden small text to get you in a contract.

I just asked them to cancel one of the service not being used and they told they have me in contract for 6 months, which I did not agree to.

Very dodgy and hideous tactics. If you are looking for hosting and professional service go to Dreamhost, Hostgator, Godaddy, Siteground.

Stay away from rip off dodgy Fasthosts.

😠 Fasthosts invoice number 64759201

This company renews your domain name even if you dont want it 30 days in advance - then FASTHOST send you a reminder to say "do you want to renew" and exactly 2 mins later says "it has been renewed" and guess what they do this at 11.56pm at night and although their terms and conditions say "you can cancel in 30 days if you are not satisfied"- all LIES and when you cancel says " sorry our terms state we renew 30 days in advance" - this is a CON and is basic theft from your bank accounts - stay away from FASTHOSTS INTERNET HOSTING - ABSOLUTE COWBOYS

😠 Entered a domain contract with fast host May 2020 with basic package. Found it ok to start with but started experiencing mail delivery failures from verified email addresses and email just simply not synching through their livemail system. Totally frustrating when your trying to run a business. Quotes an PO orders just never make it to the destination. So we decided to upgrade like a fool to the 50gig exchange server. Well big mistake the problem got worse. Different PC's in the office logged onto to same email accounts showed different mail in the inbox and sent folders. Then we upgraded PC and Laptops to Office 365 and the problem got worse. Then we had two sets of sent folders that were different on each PC.. send an email from one device and it would only show on the device sent from. This caused mayhem as no one knew who had rep;ied to messages. So after contacting their support. Nothing changed. Now it was costing us money in loss of sales because we were not receiving [read more...]

📄 Editorial Review

🔃 Fasthosts is part of United Internet
🔧 Services: Web HostingDomain Registration Own datacenter
⇔ Redirected from fasthosts.com
⇔ Redirected domains: streamline.net

Ever since it was established in 1999, Fasthosts has never stopped growing and developing. The company has always respected their customers’ needs and priorities. Because they have always cared about the customer’s experience, they became accredited from the Institute of Customer Service. As they invest a lot of time in the great operation of their web hosting services, Fasthosts has quickly become a top company. Fasthosts comes with a great variety of solutions that offer the possibility for customers to choose whatever they consider suitable for their needs:
  • Shared Web Hosting,
  • Cloud Servers,
  • Email Hosting,
  • Website Builder,
  • Domain Name Registration
  • Dedicated Servers (which can be self-managed)

Not only does Fasthosts offer product options, but it also assures the security and the online backup to their customers’ pages. Fasthosts comes with a series of extra elements available for customers, which other popular sites do not provide, such as: a free site builder, Mirago or Adword credits.

💰 Price & Cost


The prices to their plans are accessible for customers in general. These plans come with an accessible price, as well as commonly requested features. If we take, let’s say, shared web hosting, we may mention: reasonable disk space, unlimited bandwidth, basic or advanced SEO tools, or content management systems. In comparison with other companies, dedicated servers provided by Fasthosts are neither expensive, nor cheap. However, one who has some experience in the field of web hosting might have doubts when asked to choose whether or not to purchase a shared hosting plan offered by Fasthosts. The cheapest plan costs GBP 2.50 per month for the first term, and then it renews to GBP 5.00. This might become an issue as there are other international companies that come with lower prices, but nevertheless, they still manage to create a balance between the price and the set of characteristics specific to their plans.

⌛ Reliability


Fasthosts offers 99.99% uptime guarantee, but this only happens in the case of VPS or Dedicated Servers. It is not the same for each of their products. However, there might be only a small number of customers who were not content with the website functioning and the provided features.

🏢 Data Center


Their main data center is situated in Gloucester, UK. As they have invested great effort in gaining and maintaining their web hosting services up-to-date, they assure good operation for all their services, taken care in their two data centers existing in that particular area.

✍️ Customer Support


The team from Fasthosts offers 24/7 customer support available through various communication means: e-mail, live chat, phone and others. Indeed, reviews on their customer support vary: some praise the performance and trained team that help them solve their problems whereas others complain about their slow approach (multiple unanswered messages).

🔨 Control Panel


Unlike other companies, Fasthosts owns its personal own control panel. Nevertheless, for instance, customers can be provided with well-known control panels. For instance, people purchasing VPS packages are provided with Plesk.

🎯 Conclusion

Fasthosts is a good web hosting provider, promising great load speed pages, popular sets of features offered in attractive plans and premium customer support. The fact that they offer so many support options is a great advantage for people if they seek help. Then, customers purchasing one plan from Fasthosts receive additional features, which is beneficial and usually of great use for the one choosing to buy it. Support might not always work, as well as the pricing system might not be convenient for everyone, but nevertheless, Fasthosts is still easy-to-use and has a great diversity of products and plans.

😠 I saw a good offer on a server, and wanted to try it out.

I sometimes try new hosting places out - just so I can see if I can get better service or something.

After having set up the server, the bandwidth is just terrible.

Since it doesn't perform, I go to cancel. First of all, I can not cancel from their control panel. I reach out to support and tell them I want to cancel. They first and foremost point out that I, stupidly, entered into a contract for a year. And then they're like "but I can help you with registrering a .co.uk or .com domain."

I bought an unmanaged dedicated server. I know what I am doing. But I just reply that I want them to cancel the server as soon as possible - so the day before the contract renews after a year.

They schedule it, but copy and paste the exact same thing with it being in contract for a year.

I wrote that it was due to bandwidth that was underperforming - which they did not attempt to solve. They simply ignored it.

😠 We have been using FastHosts since 2003 when we mistakenly bought a dedicated sever from them.
At the time they gave us a free 'UKREG' account for domains.

They have recently updated their control panel, and the new one is absolutely useless.

All my domains contact details have lost the telephone numbers, and even where on the old system we had 1 contact for our company, set to admin contact on all domain, with the new system we have 1 contact per domain.
Furthermore because the phone numbers are missing, and fasthosts see this as an error with the contact, we now cannot even change a domains nameservers withot having to manually update the contact, then go back to the domain list, and find it again.

There as no choice in this upgrade, although not all customers have ben moved.

2 Customers of ours also have ukreg accounts, 1 is on the new system, and 1 is on the old one still.
Then we discovered that they cannot do inter-account transfers between the new and old [read more...]

😠 AWFUL. THIEVES. AWFUL.

No customer care. happy to take your money - but will not be helpful.

Will auto renew your services without any advance notice and automatically take the money. But they have NO CANCELLATION policy. so if they've taken £1500 for renewals... You've lost that money. I'm not even sure that's legal... But they WILL NOT return your money.

😠 24/7 customer support means that they will take in excess of 24 hours to reply to support tickets.

DO NOT be fooled into thinking that the intro offer is a trial offer- it is not- they make it look that way but they will suck your blood for 12 months.

I don't know of any other UK host that has such scary T&Cs.

I tried to cancel after 13 hours- the service is awfull and thier control panel is not a patch on Cpanel. Their SQL databases wouldn't let me add a user on a new data base. Whenever you try to log into one part of the control panel you find yourself having to relog in minutes later when you click on another link.

They have been told off by the ASA in the past and are still using the same tricks.

They are the only hosting firm I would warn you away from

😠 I was a FastHosts for months, until I realized they were
taking a lot of extra money out of my bank account for no reason!!


They threatened and blackmailed me, threatening to cancel my Hosting if I reported the theft and made a big deal out of it. :(((


So far, FASTHOSTS have taken an extra £1600 out of my bank account for no reason!!

😠 I have just purchased Windows home plan.

well... I'm speechless. If you want a website that looks like it was constructed by a three year old who was a bit too trigger happy with the old clip art then this is for you.

If you want something that looks slightly professional this is not for you.

Unfortunately I have found this out too late and am lumbered with this piece of junk for 12 months.

Let the lack of any before you buy preview be a warning to you because if you could see if you wouldn't spend 3p on it.
