I have been a long time client of ECPHosting.net but around October 2005 they were bought out and I had to move nameserver addresses which did cause some problems and lost me 2 large clients.

This weekend (1st April 2006) I received an email saying that they were being sold yet again and that there may be a little disruption over the weekend (the same one that I received the email). How long is a weekend?

Everything has gone.... I have no websites, my clients have no websites (Its Tuesday Afternoon here) and I have received my third phone call cancelling service and requesting their money back. So I have only a few more clients to go before I have no clients as well as no websites.

I cannot get through to anyone at ECPHosting, The ECP Forums won't allow you to add anything, and the support tickets don't work. In other words we have been left out in the cold with no means of contact.

I suppose they could email, but wait! My email server is hosted with ECPHosting and guess what, IT DOES NOT NOW EXIST.

Does anyone have the name of a reputable reseller hosting company that I can move to quickly before I loose the last of my clients?

Try contacting the new owners? Their website appears to be remcom.net.

If it helps, I am in the same boat. I have been with ECPhosting for about 3 years now. My site is up sometimes, but I have no email and ftp access is not right. There was no warning except maybe 1 day, which is no warning. Very upsetting.

That is a good choice, move your clients before its too late. You might want to check the offers section of WHT. Also you can get a quote by clicking on Find a Host at the top of this forum. Good luck to you!

Websites and emails are back working. The migration process did not go as planned and we apoligize to all of the ECPHosting customers. We will be compensating for the downtime.
This migration proccess is a long term solution and have no plans to sell ECPhosting or any of our companies. We do regret that customers have experianced this unpleasent downtime but are working to ensure everything is up and running and will stay like that.


Email, DNS is now fully fixed. However if you are still having problems contact us directly at support@remcom.net or
