My site was on
Name Server: NS3.FAST-SERVERS.NET
Name Server: NS4.FAST-SERVERS.NET
Does anyone know what server that is?
Thanks

What's done after the rooting in most cases does include some intervention of sorts.

I read something around 16 servers had root access obtained and then everything removed. It seems more likely somone had root access or an ssh key on the servers.

Hopefully, the people moving will make good informed choices about who they move to and don't just another host that will potentially end up treating you the same as netbunch...
Good luck to you all!

Will agree with BigBison totally on this one.
WHP seems to be one big scam. Their support lies through their teeth.
I was told my server was offline when I could login to cPanel. I was told it was online when it was offline.
I was even told that all my sites were working, when I had only one site!
Now, my account was deleted since I requested it, however they refused a refund because it was to the old merchant (netbunch)

I was a stupid schmuck for not seeing the signs of what a lame-*** company they are when they became Mesopia/Netbunch. I have copies of my files, but thought my db data was being "backed up" everyday. I'm sorry, but backing up to the same box is not a backup, that is a copy. Anyway, I've learned my lesson the hard way. I am definitely leaving this "company" and going elsewhere. I am also considering suing as they misled customers to believing backups were actual backups. Anyone else instested in a class-action suit?

What is fascinating about this "company", is that lack of giving a crap. I tried their 800 number, didn't work. Went to Web Host Plus' site and found a long distance number and called it. They had some prompt that if you were a Netbunch/Mesopia customer to check the website as they would update their site with info on the status of the recovery. They never did that. I also left them two voicemails that were never returned. I opened two trouble tickets, never got an answer. Basically left 100% in the dark throughout this whole process. And not once did they apologize!!!

Its always good to have your own backup never depend on your host to do it for you.

Yeah, I've learned the hard way. To most hosting providers, "backups" mean copies on the same box, which is ridiculous because if you told your mom to backup her vacation photos, you would be sure to tell her to not back them up to her computer.
