billing problem from Gearhost.com
Has anyone else ever used Gearhost web hosting services? What's your experience with them ?
I used their hosting for about 2 months and cancelled my account on Aug. and they confirmed me the cancelation. But they keep sending me past due message of my account and charged me on Sep. I asked them why they keep billing me but never get their answer.
Does anyone has the similar experience with Gearhost.com ?

I have been using them for some time but have not had experience with having to cancel an account. I have only had 1 problem thus far. When my father-in-law tried to call them (multiple times) he found only 1 person there could answer his questions.
I can say this - if you can get a hold of Ryan (he posts here as well), he is pretty good at helping out.Last edited by Dubtastic; 09-26-2002 at 09:48 AM.

Now I got the same problem with the thread starter. I can't believe gearhost has this billing problem. Anyway, I'll post at their forum and ask them about it.

I was wondering how they could give away free months, a free domain name, and afford advertising space here.

Should they add endless billing and charges to that adL. James Prevo - President/Owner

I can't post in their forum right now because I'm still waiting for the activation code of their forum software. I still didn't receive it. I don't want to email them because the last time I email them Last august 17.. I got no response. I did tried using their ticket manager when I was still hosting with them and ask their support to forward my concern. Someone confirmed to me about my ending of business with them. I think their billing people are tooooooo slow in taking care billing matter.
I've nothing against with their other services. They are great really...I'm happy with them before but the billing sucks... maybe its just the billing people. I just hope RyanK is not with the billing team. He is the founder and owner right?
One more thing the reason why I left gearhost it is because I need a totally linux host and somehow I can't find a package right for my site.

As what i've said they have a great service... except the billing matter. Hope they can improve it and make them one of the best host around.
