With $10,000, we'd be millionaires! We could buy all kinds of useful things like ... love!

My bot says thousands of sites have been down today.

There is a reason I'm hosted where I am.

See sig...

I'll second that with Pipex, they used to be a good ISP till whatever bunch of cowboys took them over.
Contact their support and you might get a reply 2 weeks later.
As a BB provider, they're over priced, slow and unreliable and their hosting is just as bad.

Whatever problems with Webair are minimal in comparison.

can go one better - I used 123 reg when setting up new main stream guys, through their affiliate programme. For months and months I told them it was not tracking and that I have not been paid. I even showed them why though they have done nothing.

Just a few weeks ago the say issue happened, we have a lot to learn from the US, esp with service. One last clasic for you is a customer I have now was approach by U Find Us, they sold him a domain and a web site, the site was never built or his details published - yet they want to take them to court for in access of 500 GBP.

I requested all the paper work to buy the domain name back when it arrived they had bought some odd varition that had no relevance to them, since the charges have been dropped and I for one think they should refund him the 300 they 'stole' from his account.

I think where ever you go you'll deal with arseholes but certainly over here, service means jack shit as i think as long as you're paying for something they don't give a shit.
Theres a few affiliate programs i could name that are just as bad for ignorance and bad attitude.

Thing to do if you get fucked about is return the favour or go elsewhere.

I can't complain too, they are very good for me and this was the only incident I had with them.

As luck would have it (or not) i had just started hosting with them 1 month ago. I have two other sites hosted at Webhosttitan and was almost ready to start the transfer across to Webair when Webhosttitan went down, i scrambled to get everything across to Webair (whilst still working my full time job) and then they (Webair) went down!!! just coincidence i guess and seeing the comments about Webair in this post makes me feel better. i have also had great service from Webair, their responses have been good.

But Webhosttitian Screwed my sites well and truly, they were down for at least 3 days (maybe still are), couldn't reach them anyhow i tried. My traffic has really hurt as a result and i currently feel like i have been set back a couple of months with my traffic. I will have some more domains up in the next few months and will host them eslewhere - just to be safe.

btw. i went with Webair because i read a number of good things about them on this board a couple of months ago
