Remember this post:

I rant – New Web Hosting Company about Webhosting

Just an update – i’m going to name names now. I had charanis.com hosted with Premeir Domain or now called Premier Internet Services for like 9 years. Unbelieveable how a company can “NOT” grow. I stuck with them partly because I was lazy and partly because I figured they needed my business and they hadn’t dissapointed me. Over the past year services started to go down hill. They had several hard crashes and after I brought up my business site and then shifted things around they couldnt’ keep up.
Billing was missed, re-directs charged for when not to be charged for. Today they charge twice as much per month as most other services and still have shabby service.
In the end I had inquired to see where my contract stood – I had prepaid in the past, changed services for credit and then lost track myself. So I’m the customer – they are the business, right? Iasked when the time was to renew – they said they woudl get back to me. A month later they did after several more emails.
YOU OWE US like $900 but we will give you a deal. And they did – they threatened to send me to a collection agency and then I finally paid. Don’t worry, I paid a lot less and immediately switched.
They offer: 500 MB Web Space, 10 GB Traffic
10 Mysql Databases, 50 Email Accounts, 25 FTP Accounts, SSH Access, 2 Domains and Money Back Guarantee – yea right….
all for only $25/month That is a crappy price and deal

So HostGator gives me:
2GB
20GB Bandwidth
Unlimited domains, mail, ftp, SQL, etc…
for $10/month!

I just don’t understand how they can throw 9 years away. They got shitty and I got busy – switched in a day. I’m done.
