I haven't talked to Midphase (100tb.com) yet though. You should try to convince them to set up proper WHOIS, including abuse handle, which the new data center might do (and Softlayer in the US doesn't do). After we got Softlayer to at least add a comment to our IP range, surprisingly most complaints went to us directly. So far, with the limited exit policy, Softlayer hasn't been bothered about us. It is a controversial topic if and why one should willingly limit the exit policy, but I don't feel too bad about the current set of allowed ports with our nodes. After all, we at Torservers don't want to help file sharers, and I feel HTTP(S)/XMPP traffic is more important than traffic on arbitrary ports. Please let us know if it works out well for you. I don't feel too well running a large exit in the USA after all, and in the long run want to move our exit someplace else, but I'm not sure if UK is a better choice (or what country would be).
