I'm looking for a host (as everyone on this site is) and came across a pretty good deal with 800mph.com.

Anyone have any experience using this host? I've already searched the forums and haven't found any infomation yet.

Thanks for your help!

Never heard of them but after using a design straight from the old ADDR site it doesn't say much.

I've taken a look at what they offer but why would you go with them?! There are TONS of hosts who offer more for less than they do.. what made you consider them?

I've got an offer code that will only cost me 8.25/mo for the 19.95 level service. Seems like it beats most of what I've found out there, though I'm a bit skeptical.

Okay for that price the package seems reasonable if it meets your needs I guess. Just as long as customer service is good too :). I'd suggest to test it by sending a few questions that cannot be found on their website and see how they respond and how quick they respond.

Great idea!

I've written support with several questions at 12:37 PM on my local machines clock.

We'll see how long it takes for them to get back to me...

Thanks for you help, I'll let you know my progress (I'm curious about the signup fee).

I'll keep watching this topic, good luck :)

I find the setup fee outrageous btw.. I sure hope you don't need to pay that as well :P

Yeah, if they don't drop it I might consider going with someone else.

Well they got back to me around 8:15 last night, just got their message this morning.

I've decided not to go with them for several reasons. These include:
1. Setup fee unless you sign up for a full year

2. The plan doesn't actually offer everything in the 19.99 plan, though that's what it stated in the email.

3. No Database Service

Might work for others, but not for me. BTW, the discount code they gave me was 2002103. It expires March 30th. Just in case anyone wants it.
