I would not deal with any company online that does take credit cards or paypal, it is the only way you have any sort of insurance when buying online. |
I wrote that badly didn't I. It should have said...

Iweb don't take credit cards. They take pay pal or cheque, both are done offline of the initial order capture transaction. The capture transaction creates an electronic invoice which you settle by mailing in a cheque or by sending a paypal payment to them. Whenever you send a cheque to someone you are sending your bank account details to them. This does not make cheques insecure. Signing a DD mandate to a company you were unsure of (some think this of NTL) would open your account to them, but to get DD collection authority you need to be vetted by the bank doing the processing so are going to be legit.
So if you want to pay by credit card you will be handing your cc details over to paypal not iweb.
I've 3 sites hosted and about 15 domains (pointed to) them, they've been great and respond to support tickets promptly too. Reliable email with spam trapping too.
So they do take paypal, i've never used the PP option but sent in cheques. TBH i can afford to take the £9.95 hit if I get scammed.
They are distance selling compliant and their website has full contact details etc. I've sent them three cheques so far, and had no problems.
Remeber it's this .co.uk not one of the many similarly named competitors/site developers.
