I am a newbie and this has probably been mentioned before somewhere but has anyone experienced featureprice.com for their hosting company? What reviews if any? I see on http://100best-web-site-and-domain-hosting-services.com/front_page.htm they rate it very well. Any experiences? Live phone support is open 24/7 which is cool. Thanks

Depends on what you are looking for and the type of data you will have there. By the way, the bandwidth is not unlimited as advertised. Read the fine print...more like 15 to 17.5 gigabytes a month. Also they have a Plesk control panel which by consensus is not everybody's favorite. They do run FreeBSD 4.6 vs the 4.3 as advertised on their page. They have a nice webmail program too.

Thanks all for the info on featureprice. I'll go elsewhere. Looks pretty bad.

Here is my story:

I had pre-paid $84.40 for an annual service, regarding website hosting. I signed up initially because of the live technical support in April of 2002. However, in July 2002, I called technical support only to find out they were now routing calls to technical support and there no longer was a live technician w/ which to speak. Yet, they still call their support "live" with a 3 hour call back. Unacceptable. I called Florida office requesting a refund. They only accept requests via email at billing@featureprice.com Vendor refuses to respond to emails concerning refund. Vendor offered international telephone number for billing resolution. However the number answers with a fax. This number is posted on their website at featureprice.com (International: +43 – 7942-72493 ) They also offer a 1-800 number for international correspondence on their web site but this too is not forwarded to their foreign office. Instead it reaches the Florida office that refuses to assist with billing questions.
