What do I want
Uncategorized December 13th, 2008
You might ask why am I doing this site, what do I want, well as you can tell from the site I have no advertising on it. So what do I actually want. Nothing. I don’t want money from MD Web Hosting, I don’t want them to refund my account, I don’t want them to purchase this domain from me, I don’t want them to pay me off to get rid of this site. I don’t even want to hear from them again.
I am not in any direct competition with MD Web Hosting. I do not offer affiliates with any other hosting company and I do not work for any other hosting company.
I don’t even want people to not use MD Web Hosting I am sure that some one out their must have had good service from them otherwise how could they stay in business and expand (as they have mentioned).
All I am telling you about is my experience with them and I have proof of everything that I say. If it helps you make an informed decision then I am glad. If you choose to believe that I have ulterior motives behind this site there is probably nothing I can do to convince you otherwise.
The cost of this site is minimal for me as I have several web servers and in previous posts I mention I was trialling MD Web Hosting to see if I could get better service at a cheaper price. So about the only payment I need to make is the cost of the domain which is around $9.00 US.
A couple of people who have had the same problems or similar problems with MD Web Hosting have left comments which I have put up un edited (except for time stamps because I didn’t get a chance to back up the domain before it was cancelled on me) I have even allowed a post un edited from Mark Galea allegedely (I have no proof apart from ip adress that it is him) and I will post any comments deemed not profanity or spam to be posted un edited.
RANDOM THOUGHTS, QUOTES & JOKES
I am currently having difficulties with MDWebhosting. I would like to hear from other people that have been ripped off by this mob.
I hear some people in this thread say that they have been with them for a little time with no problems.
I want to host 6 websites in my account (I can have 10) plus a further 18 sub-domains (I can have 50). For some reason, when they set up my domains for me, they deleted one of my websites. When I contacted them, they say that it was never there. Where then, did the income come from for the site in question?
Also, it takes at least 2-4 hours just to get a reponse from my email, then they have the nerve to ask me what the problem is - there goes another couple of hours. An email arrives, problem fixed they say - no it's not, plus they stuffed up something else.
For you guys out there who host one website with them, they may be alright. But when a business advertises that they can host multiple domains and can't deliver - they should be closed down.
I do intend on taking action against this pathetic hosting company because I signed up, with them knowing that I operate online stores. They are treating me like I just finished 6th class and want to host a family website.
Close the buggers down I say!
Stumble it!

All I can say is “dude you rock”
I have had many yrs with MD and im finally getting close to moving my last domains. I dont want to get started on the frustration they have caused my business over that time. I was very close to doing the exact same thing you are. I would probably find it hard to be as “polite” as you.
The public (small business esp) deserve to know how unprofessional and careless they really are. It’s not just a once off either, its been going on for years.
Keep up the good work, dont ever delete this website.
Thanks Owain, I plan to leave it online for a couple of years yet. I also plan to take another host with them to test them out again and report back to see if they have changed in the last year (which from all accounts they haven’t)
