Hey, folks -

I did a quick search and didn't turn up any posts yet on this (surprised, however) ... but folks interested in reading an ongoing (and fanatically documented) Web-hosting horror story should steer their browsers to:

Alex Sacui's hell (http://www.gisol.org/)

Summary:

Flash designer builds beautiful animation - naively signs up with "Unlimited Bandwidth / No hidden Charges" Web host... gets massive amounts of traffic, host freaks and reveals "hidden charge" and bills said designer for over $16,000 in bandwidth fees.

Unbelievable!

Neil

I can't believe that there are hosts out there that have the guts to say "Unlimited Bandwidth"

Come on guys! Let's be real!!!;)

That is maddness :(

That sort of thing give a bad image to all of the hosting world.

... and we get complaints from customers that do not know how to change their DNS! :rolleyes:

:eek:
Free cheese is only in the mousetrap...
