I just signed 2 domains up with them and Id be interested in feed back from others that have used their services

Well I can answer my own question here, my experience after one week was poor. lets see I got the set up info for the 1st domain I got nothing for the second domain after emailing and calling them (and listening to a young man chewing gum in my ear) I was told they would resend it ....Well it never came I had to find out my own IP and figure out my set up info on my own. I was told that the second account would get 50MB and 50 email addresses then was informed that the support person that told me that was wrong it was 20 MB and 20 email addresses I sent questions they would answer 1/2 of the question or not reply at all.(BTW I have emails to prove all of this)

All I can say is be aware be very aware
*********************************************
It was thanks to this forum that I found my new host VeoWeb (www.veoweb.net)I spent sunday (8/6/00) emailing back and forth with Ben my set up info from VeoWeb arrived in 2 minutes tops for *Both* domains the plan is wonderful the support the best Ive seen Thank you to VeoWeb and those in this forum that recommended them :)

Ben's a good guy, and veo's gotten some good marks from folks. Too bad :smack, smack: about the :smack, smack: problems you had :smack, smack:. (Sorry - couldn't resist trying to make you feel like you were listening to a cow chew his cud there. How annoying. :))

BTW - I only see two plans at setupsite, neither of which is a 50/50(or a 20/20, for that matter). Was that some kind of special or something?

Beware! I have not heard of any problems about SetupSite but watch out for "Annette" and the fraudulent sites she runs. "Hosting Matters" (a one-man operation - no staff or anything) is soon to be shut down for fraud (not to mention she cannot afford to pay her bills) and her other illegal activities have attracted the long arm of the law.

Dana - whats the speed of veowebs servers like ?

Davey - boy those brain cells of yours must be tired by now.

Another highly humourous remark.

Eddie, Veo is on Alabanza, so I'd imagine that the speed is pretty darn good. :)

I think wire xfer is the way to go. They are kind of wussy on foreign currency. But I need to verify that.

One item (sorry, Dana - didn't mean to go offtopic in your thread - really!): there's nothing wrong with resellers. However, Alabanza no longer provide hosting services, so anyone on an Alabanza server is leasing one, not reselling for them.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled topic.

Another quick question for you, Dana - did you have any trouble adjusting to a linux-based host after using an NT host. Some of our clients moving in from NT had problems with understanding that filename cases are important under *nix. Of course, if you never got the chance to upload any files to the NT server (and it sounds like you didn't), you might not have anything to compare it with...

Cheers.

Then do you want to explain why you falsely called my company a reseller many times? A quote from your fraudulent website:

"as he resells space from a provider".

Can you explain how my company was "reselling" from an Alabanza server, whereas your one-man-band "company" is not?

Yet another of your lies.

:Shrug: Information provided to us by someone via email informed us that you were a client of a client at Alabanza, and not directly connected to them. Provide some indication to the contrary, and I'll say right here that you were indeed leasing and not reselling. Alternately, you can wait for the legal beagles to complete their research, and we'll all know for sure.

Wire transfer is not a problem :) but ill wait till you know before ordering. As its for an educational site and i need a good reliable host who aint going anywhere soon. And British isps are very fussy about what you can have on your servers specially if your critising the goverenment for not doing there job right. guess thats why i choose us servers.

I hate nt servers i was on nt servers when i was with cyberquest.co.uk , there stable but i find cgi is a pain in the butt.

That is ths most pathetic and laughable excuse possible.

We always used our own servers, and have never shared our machines with ANYONE nor resold for anyone. You are very clearly the fraud that everyone believes.

"legal beagles"? Yeah, fictional. Just like this "client of Alabanza" we supposedly resold for.

Go back to defrauding other people, scum.

No excuses. The mail was forwarded to me by someone who received it from Alabanza. Surely they would know, wouldn't they?

"Unfortunately, I can't kick a client for being an ass. (Funny thing is, he's not a client, he's a client of a client.)..."

Direct quote. I can't help it that you're so inconsistent with your stories that everything you say must by necessity be treated as a lie. Everyone has offered you the benefit of the doubt and tried to get answers out of you, or get you to provide some support for your various claims, which you refuse to do. Sorry. There's nothing more that anyone can do for you without you taking some steps to clean up your own act.

You can continue to talk to yourself here if you like. Howling into canyons is a pretty futile existence, though.

Obviously not. Either you are lying (like usual) or the person who wrote that is clueless.

I have never had any "stories". You are a fraud. What "cleaning up" needs to be done? What have I EVER done that has broken the law? You are a fraudster.

You have the most pathetic existance on the planet.

When you sign up for an account at lets say 14.95 and you have another domain to sign up they stick you on the reseller plan so you can have your second domain at 4.95 a month..their instructions are as clear as mud...Its pretty bad when the person that owns the hosting companies domain name tells you the wrong info..and then you find the right info from Cud chewing boy LOL

Hi Yes thats fine :)

9 in 20 months? I think you've beat out some of the people in alt.www.webmaster! One of those people once described herself as a "bad host magnet", poor thing. Glad you found a good one to settle into, though. Must have been quite the adventure (and not necessarily in a good way).

Dana, what was wrong with sitehost4u.com, and how is veoweb.net after a few days?

Sitehost4u.com = I had a computer crash and was offline for 6 months they deleted my account and had my domain name forwarding to a real estate companies website I had to fight to get my domain back then I had to live with angry emails from people asking why when they typed my domain name they were at my site and not the real estate companies site...I even got threats from people for "stealing" the domain...It was my domain and was forwarding to another without my permission!
*********************************************
VeoWeb is Wonderful Im very happy with them if your asking because your looking for a host give them a try :)

Can't wait to see he will be gone for good in the near future. He's sick, really.

Actually, Annette, it's free. There is a small catch, though. You have to go out to get it, they don't deliver.

:-D
