Hypothetical Hosting Question...
 

Lets say you start with a host and get a small hosting plan. You pay a few months in advance. Its a small virtual package to hold you over till you finish some design and get your foundation back in order.

The host never sends you an invoice. Not even for the initial setup. You get a confirmation of activation. But no mention of the dollar amounts or anything.

After that you never recieve a bill. The uptime is pretty good...but you never get a bill and you never get charged. Then again you're not pushing shit for traffic. Its mainly a dev area. But still you never recieve any invoices.

You even go as far as to contact them and say, "Hey what's up, where the bills at?"

Nothin, NADA.

What do you do...what do you do if they try and slap you with a fat bill all at once?

Find another host.

If they can't send you a bill when you ask for one, how well do you think they'll respond to something when you need it done?

It's not a big deal, I guess, but it's not a good sign that they got their shit together.

Is it just me or shouldn't you get an invoice every month...for your records and what not...

So if I try go to move and they say, "Hey you owe us all this." What would you do...it wouldn't be an amount I couldn't handle...but that's not the point...

Sounds strange that they aint sending you bills....

all I would say is be careful as if you do leave them and find another host then they might be a bit pissed off and send you a HUGE bill.....

But at the same time they might not............
its a weird situation

I agree...it is...I was referred by a friend and I'm happy with the support and the service, tech wise...but I feel the accounting is a bit screwy...

Yeah thats what isprime do with is.....

Have you asked the tch guys if the know whats going on?

maybe they could help ya out by getting someone to check everything is ok for ya!

They must still be in business if they got people still working for them!

I suggest you pick up the phone and call them! If that doesn't work, get a new host.

Maybe they just like you alot.

did you give them a cc # for anything?
and what brad said, call them.

Enjoy the free bandwidth, post a few movie galleries... Maybe that will get their attention :thumbsup

My host uses an online billing history/modification, etc... might wanna check to see if it's set up that way on your host..
