That's why you should always check the TOS.

Ouch. I hope he didnt ahve to pay that. I think you should be told of changes like that. Plus it should work like cellphones work. When i signed up for my plan as long as i dont cancel i keep the same type of minutes forever. This should stay ture with hosting companies. But guess not. Ouch that sucks for this dude.

That was entertaining reading! I can't believe there are hosts out there that still provide unlimited data transfer and/or disk space. The worse thing is, is that customers seem to still be falling for these types of hosts! 
I guess customers sometimes need to be burned once to realize the truth about these hosts.

It's amazing what people think they can get for less than $8 a month... But at 7cents per Mb of overage, isn't that a little too much...?

From the linked page:

On 6/1/01, the office of the Attorney General forwarded me a letter sent to them by Global Internet Solutions.
The letter states that my $16,243.85 bill is cancelled.
