If your existing accounts are cPanel accounts, you could set your cPbackup to go straight to my server, then I could import your accounts keeping all your cust's settings intact.
I'm also a bit nifty with updating DNS entries to force the worlds DNS servers to provide the new details.
PM me if you have any questions.

cPanel has some nice backup features, including the ability to back up entire accounts WITH all their settings.
This backup can remain on your cPanel box, or be FTP transfered to another server.
If you have full backups of your customers sites, simply change the index page on each homepage to a "DNS updating" notice on the old box, then restore the backups onto a new cPanel box

(theres also ASSPX, which is a free frontend but I don't think its as friendly to the end user)

firewall and Bruteforce protection, and the price is right.
P.s you can copy accounts in using WHM using the Users login if the other host doesn't block it.
@Raistlin you want to login to your domain registrar (that will be the company you bought the domain from) and in the control panel there should be an option somewhere to change the dns nameservers, you use this option to set them to whatever your new host tells you to set them to.
