email [email protected] they always get back to me within 2 or 3 minutes.
They responded in a fair time. Server got fixed maybe 30 mins later or so. I asked them twice asking why it went and how long because i have the feeling it mightve been down for quite some time already. No reponse.
The only mail i got so far was "were checking it".
This thread kinda scares me. Too many negative posts.
My sites were down for 13 hours btw just because of apache stuff. This is kinda unacceptable if you ask me.
Back when DONNIE was the owner he gave me $500 credit to my account for 24 hours of downtime..... a year later i had 24 hours downtime and they told me tough shit happens.
I don't know about others experience... but reflected has always been great for me - i never really wait longer than 15 minutes for an email reply and my shit has never gone down. Just my experience though *shrug*.
As mentioned a couple times to you Franck, we aquired a reseller of ours, in a fashion which we wish could have gone better. Due to the nature of this "takeover" we inherited systems that are more or less a third party hosting companies. This is akin to us managing servers located at a company we do not own or operate - while we took steps to mitigate problems, we obviously did not anticipate everything. A more standard acquisition would have been done piece by piece and customer by customer, not wholesale as this one.
As also mentioned, we need to move you to our fully managed platform in order to be able to offer the customer service our customers are accustomed to. We are happy to do this any time, and have asked you a time to schedule this move. Unfortunately, when dealing with another provider's configuration we're flying blind.
I absolutely agree 13 hours downtime is beyond unacceptable. Your account was already credited for 1 month additional of free hosting for this mistake. When you are on a Reflected-managed platform, I am confident issues like these are a non-issue. To be honest, I've never seen an Apache error like the one which brought your site down, and I've been in the business for more years than I care to admit.
As for Oracle Porn, you may forget - but I am an owner of Reflected, and was also when Donnie co-owned it with me. I was the one who gave you free service credits, not Donnie. Since I generally manage operations, all your dealings were with me, or through Donnie to me. I don't get into board drama, but there was a unique difference in your account status between those years which explains the difference in actions taken by myself. I am finding it curious that someone who left in the manner you did, feels they could possibly bring any 'drama' to the boards. I suggest you take a strong look at what you're typing, and correlate that to the actual actions you took yourself.
Reflected is a strong company with an extremely strong track-record in customer service and uptime. What happened with Franck we absolutely screwed up 100% on. We make things like that right, even if he's moving to another hosting company. All I can do is apologize, and let you know what actions have been taken, and what actions still need to be taken to keep an issue like that from happening again in the future.
In any case - yep, we screwed up. My apologies again to Franck. I would appreciate the chance to make it right, but can understand if not. We are a professional company, and honestly I think this is the first case of an unhappy customer coming to the boards instead of talking to us directly. I also understand why this is, since you were brought on board in a fashion where you simply have not dealt with us long-term, and know how we operate.

You mean the credit all clients got because of the company switch?
I'm not really pissed off. Its just that when i move to a new company i get nervous and, bad luck for you, my shit goes down in the first week. Know what i mean?
Also im not sure about the customer support. Sure you guys respond fairly quick but i have the feeling the person who reads it doesnt really care or is busy with other stuff.
The first email a couple of days ago i asked for fairly simple question and hours later i get a reply that had nothing to do with it. I mean thats just a case of not paying attention to whats in the email.
And now atm, one site is still down, i showed the error (a mysql table thing) and the person who responded said i should look at it in the software on the site. Well, how can i if the site is down?
MySQL Error : The table 'session' is full
Isnt this enough info for an admin to know where to look at?
Anyway, im willing to give you guys a chance. This could be bad luck and i want to be fair to you.
After talking to them i decieded to stay with them. They are moving all my stuff to a more server on their own network. (as i'm still on the old network).
I really hope this is worth my and their time.
Phil seems like a decent guy but no matter how decent he is i'm more interested in my server uptime.
