Customer Feedback
I have been a customer of RackSRV with three co-located servers for over 5 years now and cannot fault the reliability of the service or the commitment of Jon and his team when I have needed assistance. I would happily recommend RackSRV to anyone :)

Humberto - Media Roomsnever ceases to amaze me how quick they respond to tickets and how knowledgable they are. Definitely my 1st choice!
Daimon - DMB SOLUTIONS LTDI've used a few hosting companies prior to racksrv. I've been with them now for many years. The service, help and reliability is amazing I can truly recommend this company. They value you as their customer and treat you like a friend.
MartinI've been with racksrv for only a week, but so far any tickets raised have been answered in under 10 minutes. If this is the customer service I am to expect from RackSRV, I do hope if a serious problem arises it will be resolved in the same manner. I'll definitely write another review in a years time. Thank you RackSRV...
SammyNothing less than an excellent service! I'm also a long term member on WHT and I recommend your company to everyone who are looking for a hosting company in UK.
BlagojRackSRV has been our UK server provider for as long as we can remember. They have always provided us with a stable server and professional support, even if we caused a problem on the server ourselves. RackSRV is all we look for in a trusted server provider. Thanks guys!
