17.5% Tax? What are you out of your mind?

The free plan looks good, the others..... well if you do not need too much features (no cgi/php etc), it would be good enough.
Btw: can you *only* host *.co.uk domains?

Thats the tax rate in the UK, If your registered to pay VAT thats how much your customers pay.

VAT sucks
no clue what it is, but if it's 17.5% more for the consumer... it sucks

I don't like your plans too much because it's win2k hosting. That's probly just me though...

The VAT in Argentina is 21%, it was going to be lowered but I have no clue when. The Tax on Gasoline is 88% of the Cost.

Would be good if you make your host more international, without the 17.5% VAT... isn't that only for commodities?
