Unlimited BW...looks sketchy.

I've never heard of them. Plus, UBW is a little scarey as RydelOnline stated

From http://whois.sc/meinwebserver.com :

From their website:

We are proud to announce that on 21st June 2004 reseller no. 5.000 has decided to sign up with MEIN WEBSERVER!

Interesting... They must be among the fastest growing hosting companies on the 'net.

Anyway, what we have here is a very new host, offering unlimited bandwidth. No way I would use them.

[Arno|VDH]

indeed think again before using them, there are better choices out there

I have a reseller-account with them since 10 months (previously they were only available for austria and germany). The domain meinwebserver.com and the international offers are rather new.

I am satisfied especially because they always inform me before they block abusers etc. and they have good support. my previous host caused a lot of headache.

What is thier other domain name, the one they use only for austria and germany, and what is the site you have hosted with them.

very nice support and fast FTP

Everyday I see someone making a post asking if a host that offers "unlimited BW" or "unlimited HD space" is good. I think the WHT mods should sticky a big fat thread that titles: "Unlimited HD and BW hosts are no good". Unlimited resources do not exist, don't expect much from them.

How long have you been with them, and where are thier servers located. What is your website so I can test the pings.

Newly created but the contact domain is gmx.at which is a part of United Internet which is the parent for... 1and1.com.

Also the reseller that I saw sporting an unlimited everything promise's IP goes back to 1and1 so maybe they have a division that does this.

[wht-wtf]

probably one guy, operating in garage lol... this host looks fishy

They don't have GD library support on their servers so photo-galleries etc won't work.

Don't some galleries work with ImageMagick? Not defending, just making sure the statement is correct.

You are quite right, my mistake. The statement should be:
"They don't have GD library support on their servers".
