No it's not just you. Our webhosts are continually having problems with the server we're on; they've migrated a load of users onto a new box, and yet speed and uptime are still an issue. They sadly become victims of their own success and are now getting slapped big-time.
We've paid for 12 months and that's due to finish in January. If we're still struggling when it comes to renewal time, we're off somewhere else.
