I need UK based VPS hosting PCI Compliant
I am looking to open an e-commerce website. I need a VPS provider with Cpanel /WHM & SSL. I will also be running 2-3 blogs on that. Most importantly I want it to be secure for processing cards. So needs to be PCI compliant. Can anyone please suggest a reliable hosting provider? Thanks

PCI DSS compliance usually concerns e-commerce software and not datacenters. A PCI compliant datacenter will not prevent the data breach due to a SQL injection in your e-commerce software.
It concerns everything. From data centre through OS all the way to pro reign software and humans.

To process cards you don’t need to store them on your server as the payments can be processed live or much better to store card details at payment gateway vault, example: Stripe payment provider, the same feature provided by a few providers.
You are correct and that's why I said 'usually', calling OPs attention to his e-Comm solution in the first place. The biggest card data breaches of last 10 years happened at PCI compliant data centers.
..but most importantly, NTP.
You're doing it wrong.
OP, you should focus on reducing the scope. Look at Stripe and their solutions for payment processing. Or do it off-site all together.
