    Fucking POS Hosting Co

    So I have a really large mainstream client I've hosted at www.cybrhost.com for 4 years now @$380.00 per month for a dedicated. Over the past 12 months they have been getting shittier and shittier with their support (won't take phone calls, etc). We bought the box up front from them for $2800 on top of the hosting bill which has NEVER been delinquent.

    Today I get an email from them:

    Jeff, Dan and the techs have said a DOS attack on your server has now brought down our
    network 3 times in the last 10 days and they have taken your server offline
    permanently for abuse to prevent this anymore.

    Dan says you will have to move your hostig elsewhere.

    , or http://www.cybrhost.com (Click on Live Assistance...)
    Call toll free 866-300-MIVA (M-F 9am-6pm PT)
    My client is taking 40-50 online orders a day due to the holiday rush (roughly 8-10k $$$ per day).

    WTF is up with that? Is it standard procedure to shut an account down because they are being attacked? This is fucked up! Happy Monday!

      If it's mainstream, talk to Jeff at SproketData (877-815-HOST) and tell him RetroDate referred you. We have 7 hosted boxes with them now for a few years and they are great.

      We also have 3 boxes with rackspace for one of our projects, and they are fantastic but very expensive.
      Send your traffic to RetroDate.Com

          It's the time to move, at 380 / mo you won't have problem finding something else

          EDIT: btw, If they can't deal with DDoS/DoS they should close their biz

                      That sucks.

                              I've had a dev server at Phatservers for a while now testing and configuring MIVA (their shopping cart) so I guess today is the "big launch". lol

                                      DoS attacks suck, but that is defiantly the wrong way for a quality host to handle them.

                                      Consider switching to Sinxstar Hosting. We offer competitive packages and enough features to satisfy the most complex mainstream sites.

                                      Drop me a note on ICQ, I'd like the chance to talk to you in order to find out exactly what you need. 124-249-781.

                                              I'd drop them in a heartbeat. If
                                              they'd blame you for a DOS attack
                                              they'd blame you for spoofed virus
                                              emails or many other situations
                                              outside of your control. There's too
                                              much quality hosting available to
                                              deal with dickheads.

                                                      I'll see you at Internext. Stories like this make me glad that I use a professional hosting company instead of someone who's going to blame me for shit beyond my control.
