Hosting questions technical

[Sogo7]

Considering moving one or more  of my web sites to BT hosting but require some technical details in order to decide.

1> Is the cURL option "followloaction" enabled ?

2> Is the PHP command "file_get_contents" or similiar permitted to query an external URL ?

3> What are the limits for server resource useage and penalties for exceeding them?

4> Can CRON jobs be scheduled from the control panel

Am deeply concerned that it appears nobody here can answer basic questions relating to the hosting server configuration, this is not encouraging news.
