Where/with whom are you colocated? I’ve been looking around in London and everything is shockingly expensive.

At the moment I'm using Mythic Beasts in Cambridge - they're not cheap but their support is fantastic - https://www.mythic-beasts.com/.

I have a few friends using https://www.ukservers.com/ and https://www.veloxserv.co.uk/ who are more reasonably priced.

I've also used m247 in the past, but had terrible experiences with them since they were acquired by private equity - network & support quality went really downhill.

For servers, I use https://serverfactory.com/ and https://www.rackservers.com/. As is typical for this kind of thing ignore the online pricing and email in - you'll usually do rather better, but they'll want you to pay by bank transfer.

edit: being outside of London means power is a lot cheaper, but I get about an extra 2ms of latency to my server. I consider that a reasonable tradeoff :)

Thanks! I was also considering Mythic Beasts.
