Webair: Setup Time - The Saga


My history of dedicated server request

21 set - Purchase made
22 set - I received an email: New Work Order Assigned
The work has been assigned to a technician which will start work on Wednesday September 22nd AM and completed by Tuesday September 28th 2010 08:00:00 PM. Once the
work is complete you will be contacted via email with all pertinent information to your order. You will be given a chance to look over everything before the work order is closed. Below you will find the details of your work order. Please contact the assigned manager if you have any
questions.
26 set - I received an email:
Hi,
We had a delay in some of your parts for your new server, we should have your login details sent you by Tuesday/Wednesday.
29 set - No answer, and i sent a email and:
Hi,
You should receive your login details tomorrow, if there are any delays we will let you know.
1 oct - Sent two emails without answer
2 oct - Sent one email without answer
4 oct - Without answer

What kind of specs? Maybe an odd-ball or big server?

It's sad when you are not getting what had been promised by them. Try to contact them through phone or something. Sorry to hear that you are having a tough time. Bring it to their notice and try to solve it soon. If they are of no help move to another.

Try calling them. You can get quick answers to your problem rather than email and wait for ever!

We ordered the same deal, and I can say that the set-up is top-notch and the support through live person live chat is an instant reply and phone support works perfectly fine for us (Shared and & Dedicated)

Have nothing but praise for them to be honest

Plus it's the first month free...

Trust me you do not want me to post how many clients we have had move over from fortress it or dedicated now. Whatever you are calling the company now a days.
He did call in, and according to his narrative:

whenever I called the machine just told me I wasn't eligible for phone support and it disconnected.

It looks like that.
Think that's high time to change them.
