With regard to the original post about cheapvps.co.uk - I signed up for a month and then swiftly canceled. It seems like there is one guy who looks after it (they have just had to pull live support as he can't handle the demand) and when my account was set up with half the capacity it should have had, the only explanation they offered (2 days later) was along the lines of "I have changed it now".
To be fair to them, my main reason for canceling was that I didn't realise just how much system resources are used by simply running an SQL database - the cheap 128Mb RAM option just can't handle it.
