Yes, I absolutely DESPISE one and one. Never Never will I deal with them. (And I mean never).
Anyone but 1 & 1.
I go with Hostgator as its US dollar based (Its therefore very cheap) and no Vat (As I'm UK based). Their backend scripts are always up to date.

If you plan on staying with 1and1 I'd recommend upgrading to a VPS or dedicated account. If you do switch to another host, keep 1and1 for the domain package (even if you don't use their hosting packages), as 1and1 has the lowest price on domains I've ever found.
You're wrong on the domain costs. GoDaddy.com and Enom.com (I believe as well) in the US, smoke 1 & 1 on domain prices.
Although those ****** at 1 & 1 have allowed US based domain buyers to purchase at rates far lower than they sell in Europe and YOU MUST have a US address to buy them at that lower price.
Everything about 1 & 1 to me is unethical (I've had packages with them and all sorts) NEVER NEVER NEVER again.
