Hello Folks. If you know about a hosting company called http://www.Secureservertech.com and are looking for hosting or DDOS protection, then just clearly over this company. They are first of all re-sellers for Staminus.net, and you do not need to go via Securservertech.com at all. Reason is our client ordered a DDOS protected hosting from secureservertech.net . It was a managed server, but managed server does not mean its a must. The client wanted to use his own programmer, but MR. Felosi the owner behind www.secureservertech.com said: We will rent a server via Staminus.net and do the DDOs management for you. Payment was made: look here: This payment was for the JUNE 2008 month. The server's earlier client paid to end of MAY 2008, and didn't stay to out May. Thats why it was again rented for the next month so felosi from secureservertech.com didnt have to give it back to staminus.net, and our client would get a good server soon enough. Mr. Felosi started to make all kind of problem for our client that: http://dump.no/view/files/272f90ffb7...al_payment.jpg click on the image to see it clearly.. You can not use your own server manager. If your manager breaks anything, i will not fix the server.. Our client told Mr. felosi to not worry about the management fee. That will still be paid to him. But this was not his issue. His issue was he wanted total control over our clients server for perhaps reasons such as his territory. He canceled the CPanel and litespeedtech lisence and also changed passes for WHM after our client asked him, why the server does not come online after a normal reboot. That made Mr.Felosi very very mad. Our client who paid via paypal simply filed a claim in paypal, but MR.Felosi won that claim easily buy replying to the dispute " Non-tangible item.". When our client asked Him to give the money back, felosi said he had paid for the server to staminus already. When our client asked STAMINUS , they had this to say: [/quote] Date: Thu, 29 May 2008 15:35:30 -0700 Subject: RE: Hello Mate.

Staminus Communications Voice: 949-202-5305 [/quote] Well you can make your own idea about the service level of www.secureservertech.com and what you can expect from them if you go there for hosting or DDOS protection. This company is scamming the clients. So Do not host your sites there if you need ddos protected hosting... DL
