Letshost.ie suspended my hosting without notice. - boards.ie

I wouldn't host with these guys after hearing about this. As Richard says, every host has it's good points and bad (as well as customer reviews). However, what they did to woodentoys was shocking.
+1. Horriffic actually.

Indeed, post the same question to different groups of web users and you may be fortunate enough to get different opinions in response. Kinda useful if trying to make an informed decision when moving away from a hosting company that has gone bugger up, would you agree Hosting365?

Thank you to all who have taken the time to respond, much appreciated

Wow... I never heard about this... That's amazing! I can't understand how a company can do that? Legally like. Anyone know how that turned out? Apology? Court?

the problem was sorted i would imagine... di11on went quiet all of a sudden so i can only imagine that the problem was sorted,or some sort of agreement was made.

none the less, whatever little hope i ever had of going with them has since been quashed by that single thread.

Just highlighting the post littlebird, in fact giving you enhanced exposure

As for your comment about 'bugger up', no offence taken, as register365 has no connection at all with Hosting365 any longer, although I do think Namesco are doing a good, and improving job since the transition, and have great things planned for the business. Register365 is still ireland's largest, and still fastest growing host (by a factor of more than 100% per month of all the other irish hosts).

Doesn't make any difference whatsoever. It seems to be in the mindset of certain Irish hosting companies that it's okay to provide poor support or to pull tricks like this and then bend over backwards to fix things only if the whole thing is broadcasted on a forum. You literally have to 'go public' in order to get any kind of reasonable support from a lot of these hosting providers. It's probably a lot cheaper to scour fora for sporadic criticism than it is to provide a decent level of support to all your customers I guess.

Yes, i couldn't agree more with you. Not even with hosting companies only, but even expanding into other industries and services online. The behavior that went on at letshost.ie was simply not acceptable and was proof that companies like this use 'internet anonymity' to its full advantage. personally, i would not hand over information, or give information to a web hosting company that i don't trust.
