    If what you are saying is true, it is indeed very unfortunate. Hosts needs to have an ethic.

    btw, if you are unsatisfied, ask for a refund and just change your host to a more reliable and honest host and your problem will be solved forever.

    nb.

    That is for sure no good. I would request a refund and take your sites elsewhere no reason to stick around with them. Since they are ignoring your requests it just goes to show they are truly trying to hide something. Id say find a good shared host here or on wht. Good luck!

    hi,

    i always new something was fishy when i saw their live data center cams. the cam links don't work. they are just pictures of someones datacenter.

    f you are loosing revenue....slap a mini lawsuite on them for damages. a small claims can be done for 5,000.00. that will wake them right the F up and they are cheap to initiate. just copy your proof.

    wow. when looking at the string of content ....that is horrible. there are exactly 20 <h1> a hrefs designed to jack rankings......what scuuUUUMM baaGGSS

    Wow, surprised you can't sue them or something, terrible turn of events. Sorry to hear man, definitely report this on WHT to keep the other people from trouble.

    i would like to say that you probably can. its easy to file a small claim against someone.
    i would also like to comment again for no reason on how terrible this really is to ensure that people see this.
    demand retribution.

    WOW this is shocking to see.

    Dealing with people over the internet always has its cons but when you get people like this then its bad.

    If their hosting company was good enough then they wont need to do such thing. I think its just someone getting to greedy.
