Code signing certificates - recommendations

Hi

For many years I have purchased my code signing certificate via [https://www.ksoftware.net/] - the last time a 3 year OV code signing certificate. This year the company won't even respond to emails and looking on review websites e.g. trustpilot has gone down hill dramatically and I am not sure I can trust them.

My previous certificate was an OV issues by Sectigo (previously) Comodo.

A lot has changed since I last renewed as with OV you didn't need a hardware token like you did with EV, but it seems now you do, so prices have also jumped up.

Just wondered if others here had recommendations on good suppliers / issuers? as always a worry paying money to a company never used before and so many other CA's e.g. Certum, Globalsign, DigiCert etc as well as the my previous (Sectigo), so not sure where to turn.

I am based in UK if that makes any difference, although it seems from research already done that most will be shipping tokens from US! hence additional costs for shipping as well!, but will renew for 3 years to negate that cost a bit.

Thanks
