    Wow by the looks of it they are a massive overseller for sure, I have never hosted with them, But Unlimited Everything?

    If this was me, I would not be adding this host to one of my top 5!

    Did you go through the TOS and AUP section. Make sure you have gone through it and if possible have a check with a representative there.

    I would suggest you to stay away with host which offers unlimited space and bandwidth. Always remember that you'll get what you paid for.

    Not sure what situation is right now.
    12+ years -same website , new server [SSD Inside] providing shared/reseller hosting only !
    These things we do not provide/offer : Unlimited Storage ! Unlimited Bandwidth ! But Why? Cause, we were unable to put such a large number on our pages, it just would not fit.
    So check out the numbers that actually fit >> << the page as well as your budget too !

    I used them a year ago, very, very, very, bad I remember getting double charged on my debit card and the server was extremely slow. +10 load at all times. They claimed it were backups, but at 6PM and at 9PM? At night, it would go to +13-15 load and I assume those were backups.

    I did get a package with hostingdepartment, Yes i know hostdepartment and hostingdepartment are different but hostingdepartment was suspended the day after (the main website) for not paying ther bill.. so don't use hostingdepartment, I don't know about hostdepartment, if it is good, just hope hostingdepartment hasn't ruined its rep.
