## UKFast Reviews
  ### 1. Don't use them

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Anthony B. | Dating Columnist, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 07, 2022

**What do you like best about UKFast?**

Not applicable because there is nothing good about them.

**What do you dislike about UKFast?**

They cannot offer any real/developmental help, so their prices simply for hosting are outrageous. They locked me into a contract paying £420/m, I found another server offering half that price with unlimited monthly development. Thieves.

**Recommendations to others considering UKFast:**

Don't.

**What problems is UKFast solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Nothing.
