Is it just me or is anybody elses site down?

Going on 3 days now... yet again, it's nothing uncommon!

They even did away with their forum.

Not my siggy business.

Dear UrgentHost Support and members:

As an UrgentHost user, I thought I would put in my two cents. Last month, UrgentHost.Com was down quite a bit. As a matter of fact, the site that I have hosted with you was also down. On eleven separate days my site was down, and on two of those days it was down ALL day.

Of course, I immediately contacted your support department. At least, I tried to. Your web site assured me of a prompt response to my e-mail, and yet I am still waiting for a response from you. This is not considered prompt where I am from.

Oh, yeah. Where ARE you from? Your street address in your DNS records indicates you are located in Waycross, GA. Your telephone number, however, is in Illinois. When I attempted to contact you at this number regarding my site, it turned out to be a fax.

It doesn't add up. To date, the only thing you have done in an "urgent" manner is bill me.

So. I applaud you on your site design skills. Bravo. Well done. It is a shame that it's just a lot of smoke. The service behind the pretty pages leaves much to be desired.

they are selling it doesnt appear that they bothered to contact any of their clients. This is un-ethical, and not right!
Be assured urgentwhat there are good hosting companies out there.Its things like this, and its been stated in many posts over and again:
that give the hosting industry in general a bad name.

Oh! So the owner was lying by stating that he has contacted his clients and they wish to stay?

How freaky!

There must be another reason behind the sale.
