Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about UK dedicated servers, answered by the engineers who run the hardware.

How much does a UK dedicated server cost?

RedSwitches UK dedicated servers start at $70 per month with no setup fees. All plans include DDoS protection, IPMI/KVM access, and 24/7 human engineering support at no extra cost. Pricing varies based on your choice of CPU (AMD EPYC, Ryzen, or Intel Xeon), RAM (up to 2TB), NVMe/SSD storage, and bandwidth tier (1Gbps, 10Gbps, or 25Gbps). GPU bare metal configurations are also available for AI and compute-intensive workloads. View the pricing table above for full plan details and specifications.

What is the difference between a dedicated server and a VPS?

A dedicated server is an entire physical machine where all CPU, RAM, storage, and bandwidth are exclusively yours. A VPS (Virtual Private Server) shares a physical server's resources with other users through virtualisation. Dedicated servers from RedSwitches deliver higher performance, lower latency, and stronger security because there are no noisy neighbours competing for resources. For production workloads, high-traffic applications, databases, and compliance-sensitive data, a UK dedicated server is the better choice over a VPS.

How fast are UK dedicated servers delivered?

RedSwitches provisions most UK dedicated servers automatically, delivering them within minutes of payment confirmation. There is no manual setup queue and no multi-day waiting period. Upon deployment, you receive full root access, IPMI/KVM credentials, and your server's IP address immediately. This makes RedSwitches one of the fastest dedicated server providers in the UK for deployment speed.

Do you accept cryptocurrency payments for UK servers?

Yes. RedSwitches accepts cryptocurrency payments including BTC, ETH, and USDT for all UK dedicated server plans, alongside standard payment methods such as credit cards, debit cards, and bank transfers. Invoices are denominated in USD, and the payment gateway converts crypto at the live rate at the time of payment. Transactions are reconciled automatically and a receipt is issued. This makes RedSwitches a strong choice for Web3 teams, blockchain projects, and businesses that prefer to pay for dedicated server hosting in crypto.

Can I install a custom operating system on my UK dedicated server?

Yes. RedSwitches UK dedicated servers support Ubuntu, Debian, AlmaLinux, Rocky Linux, and Windows Server from our template library. You can also mount a custom ISO via IPMI virtual media or use PXE network installation for any operating system of your choice. Full root access is provided on all plans, allowing you to configure RAID, disk encryption, firewalls, containers, and any software stack from day one.

What certifications do your UK data centres hold?

RedSwitches UK data centres maintain certifications including ISO 27001 (information security), ISO 9001 (quality management), and SOC 2 Type II (security controls). Both London facilities meet Tier III standards, providing N+1 redundancy and 99.99% uptime SLA. RedSwitches supports customer compliance audits, shares certificates under NDA, and accommodates remote document reviews or on-site visits for organisations that require verification of their UK dedicated hosting environment.
