i was thinking about trying them out before but you had to pay extra for a lot of stuff like mysql, control panel, etc.

DON'T USE POWWEB!!!!!!
I had them for two week and they closed my account and kept my money. They said I used to much bandwidth. When I bought there service it was unlimited bandwidth with a Limited 30-day Money Back Guarantee.. They are just CROOKS,CHEETS and LOSERS...They ROBBED ME :bawling:

ive been using them for awhile and I like them alot.
Sharyk, how much bandwidth were you taking up? They have now changed it and only allow 12 G/B per month, but now they have upped the space to 100 megabytes.

I have been using them for my site and have had no complaints.

I don't know. My site was only up for one day before they shut it down. I might add, They didn't even have the class to e-mail me about it. I thought there server was down. I found out through there support and they were rather smart assed about it. And I quote "You get no 30-day refund. You violate our ToS, you pay the price.

Cheers,"And to top it all off they had the guts to spam me the next day:angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:

I have 2 accounts with Powweb and haven't had any problems with them. Knock on wood :D. They also offer good support and they always reply within 24 hours. At least thats the way it was the last 3 times I emailed them. :D

its the same for me, they graciously answered all of my emails almost all within 10 hours.

Again i ask, Sharky, how much bandwidth does your site exactly take up. In the ToS it says if you slow down their server for the rest of the sites they will work things out... Anyway just wondering cuz Ive had no probs with them.
