I have setup my first VPN with my VPS in the US although I'm in the UK. Getting speeds of 3-5mb would it be faster if I had a UK VPN?

    Usually the closer you live to your server (VPS), the better speeds you are more likely to get.

    You should do a download test / looking glass before signing up with your VPS. I would say 3-5mb/s is not that bad.

    Yes, much faster.

    Will look for a cheap yearly UK VPS if I can get better speeds. Also when connected to VPN on iphone will it use the servers bandwidth or my 3 or 4g data?

    depends. On WiFi? Your ISP internet and the server. on 3g or 4g? There you go

    It uses your 3/4g data to send and receive data to the server. (VPN)

    So, it uses both.
