I was one of the founders of the company (Candidhosting)Originally posted by chemicaleyes
I make my coments based on my impression of what is transpiring at the company.
They shut off numerous account on trumped up accusations last month of spamming, or other supposed AUP violations. Without any prior notification, giving a whopping 15 minute notice to those affected. Turning people off at 11:45pm on a Friday. 11:45pm on a Friday, good business practices?
I believe the guys from JuicyBucks would have a few words to insert on this also.
JUSTB quit there a couple weeks ago, and I am sure she could put in some more details also.
These are all events that usually lead up to something, in my opinion.
------------
Gentlemen, due to AUP violations we have no alternative but to close your account with our company. Effective midnight tonight 07/15/05, your servers will be disconnected. Please call the NOC at 813-221-4429 to make arrangements to pick up any colo servers.
Please note, colo servers will not be released until account is paid in full. While we don't enjoy doing business like this, you have left us with no other alternative.
Sincerely,
Sharon Memmer and Charles Charmatz

The one thing I can say is back in the day the customers were taken care of by sales and tech. In my opinion, it does not matter who you are, you're just another piece of shit customer in their eyes.Originally posted by pimpporn I feelin reaaaaaaaaaaaly good about that 100meg line we got there now
We had servers there for 5 years, and knowing my history with the company (i.e built it from nothing)... They did me the great pleasure of shutting all of our servers off knowing we were all in Europe and there was nothing we could do until Monday (eons in internet time)
I e-mailed the owner Lucas, who said he had no idea what happened, and he would resolve it. With this statement it was clear to me the decision was an autonomous action made by the minions in Tampa. As I stated above, the complete disregard for people's businesses and the "who gives a fuck attitude" is something to watch out for.
We ended up moving all of our stuff to another Tampa host which I highly recommend. A network built by a real network admin (not one big LAN). The guy we deal with is also a Candid person that was there from the beginning - Russ. http://www.sagonet.com

When I was with Candid Hosting (Power Medium) David D was the only one who knew what he was doing. I went through so many different tech's there I got fed up cuz known of them knew anything. Do not get a box here.Originally posted by daviddComment

Hey, long time no speakOriginally posted by cosis
When I left, a lot of people split, but some stayed. I would merely state that if they did this to me, I feel they will do it to anyone.
There are plenty of other hosts out there, with better networks, and employees who understand what makes a company (the customers).Comment

Thanks for the kind words David.
Russ and I are always around and available to discuss anything, and from both of us being at Candid before the "dark times", we know exactly what is needed and what it takes.
Thanks again, glad we could help out.Comment

Different Segment?Originally posted by FiReCwe have done ALOT of business with PM/candid over the years however we are unhappy with our situation. all i wanted was a test download from a different segment in the network to test things out and look what it turned into
That would require routed subnets, which is something that is hard to find in them there parts.Comment
