Finally, I have found a host who can deliver what I want, importantly they responded within 15 minutes. Before I sign up I need to know any comments and experience from this board...

Thanks

I've never used them, but... it says "unlimited" data transfer. There's no such thing, just don't trust "unlimited" hosts since you may pay your money and then suddenly find out their limit is lower that what you could've gotten elsewhere. (Note the vagueness in their terms of use: "WebHost4Life.com will determine what constitutes system abuse.")

I agree with Hoth :)
There are too many hosters available that will clearly state in their terms what your transfer limit is etc., AND its always been said NOT TO choose an unlimited host for a variety of reasons!
You can do a quick search here in the forums for unlimited
and see what type conversation this has produced in the past.
In the end of course, its always the clients choice...but do your research :)
Here is a helpful site too

Unlimited hosts go on the assumption that their users won't use that much bandwidth. However, if you start using a decent amount, they will impose severe restrictions.

You could almost say... 'limit' you, eh? *wink*

Nah, then it wouldn't be "unlimited."
