Goddam i just got fucked!
 

Just lost my Visa billing with CCBill because my server admin let my box sit crashed for almost 30 days. No email, no sites, no nothing.

Is there a payment processor that doesn't charge the damn fee to get Visa going again? I can't believe I'm getting fucked like this.

HELP!!!!!

How exactly did you let your sites sit crashed for 30 days in a row? I tend to check mine daily is why I ask. Am I anal retentive?

You didnt check your servers/sites/members area for the past 30 days??

Yah i knew he let them go down and begged him nearly every goddam day to get the box back up so this wouldn't happen. He had me hostage. Now i'm trying to figure out what to do. Server is back up and everything is working correctly but now visa billing is gone. I need to talk to ccbill tomorrow. I guess i just needed to yell and figured this might be a good place to vent.

Wouldn't you notice less money coming in a bit quicker??

Good luck man. Paying the new fees and waiting for approval certainly would suck

You don't understand... I couldn't the box was down. "I'll get to it first thing in the morning" was what I kept hearing from the host.

oh sorry to heat that

Hmmm...surprised they would cut you off for that if it's the same domain and all.

Well, since my goddam email was coming in on the same box ( which was supposed to be back up and running in a matter of days ) I never received email about it either. I'm sure they probably tried to contact me now that I look at it with hindsight but trying to get the guy to get it fixed pretty much took all the time i had and being so stressed out about it kinda left me a little overwhelmed to be rational enough to call ccbill.

Another classic example of why you shouldn't get into this business if you lack basic industry technical skills.

fuck off nookster

you host your own boxes, set up your own servers, do your own dns, shoot your own content, write your own software and wipe your own ass? damn dude.. you kick ass!

I envy you.

Damn that sucks .. why after a few days didn't you grab a new host, move your shit over, and keep everything alive? 30 days is a year in internet terms lol

i think you should be just as concerned (if not more) with finding a new host!!!


who was it that let your box sit down for 30 days !???!?

Couldn't he had everything on site. I know better now. The biggest problem is that i kept buying it everytime he told me he was going to fix it.

believe it or not.... a friend. Heh.. isn't that the way it always goes? I helped him in a few jams then set him up with a few clents and he offered to host my stuff for free. I even offered to make it worth his while to expedite the fix. He refused and promised me he'd have it done day after day after day. Priority one is to get the billing back up. Then back up the sites again and move the whole bag of tricks to another host.

I do, except I don't run paysites and shoot content. Kudos for trying to start shit. :1orglaugh

What is the paysite?
