Summary
VeloxServ Communications Ltd
hosting legacy
VELOXSERV is VeloxServ Communications Ltd, a privately owned datacentre and connectivity provider based in Wolverhampton in the English West Midlands.
What it's used for
- Colocation, dedicated servers and wholesale connectivity out of the company's own Midlands datacentres, carried over its own network.
Notable
- Hosting and transit address space. Addresses here front colocated and dedicated servers, so they read as datacentre IPs and the customer behind any given address can change over time.
- Being a carrier-neutral operator with its own network, VeloxServ appears both as a host and as an upstream for its colocation customers.
- The company dates from the late 2000s, so the low AS number was reissued to it and does not indicate an early-internet allocation.

Classification and threat
Hosting Datacenter or cloud provider. Addresses are servers, not people.
Spamhaus DROP
Not on ASN-DROP The network as a whole is not listed.
No DROP prefixes None of its announced space is on the DROP prefix list.
Spamhaus DROP ("Don't Route Or Peer") lists space and networks run by, or hijacked for, spam and cybercrime operations: 453 networks and 1,853 prefixes, as published 2026-11-05. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.
FBI IC3
No IC3 indicators Nothing from the FBI IC3 feed.
IC3 threat data is alpha. Absence of an indicator is not evidence of good behaviour, only of absence from this one feed.
