I was at one time with flexihotings (http://www.flexihostings.net/home/main.php) - Still have my account there and just waiting to claim my domain name as soon as the subscription has expired. I am now with budget hosting and can;t complain. Excellent service and uptime is always 99%.

This message is basically to warn all users NOT to sign on with Flexihostings. Their servers are down at least 70% of the time, and when they are up, then your email is down. So stay clear from these people. Crying or Very sad

My 2 cents..

Strange - I spent quite some time with flexihostings, and even now still have 1 site with them. Uptime was 99%+. I only moved a couple of sites to another host where I could have multi-domains at a lower price. Question

hmmm i havnt had a problem with them for the last 2 years. they only went down 2 time for like a hour. perhaps the server you were on was shaky. best bet is to request to be moved to another server cause of the troubles. i had a friend do that and then he never had any more problems.

Yep we have had no bad expierences with flexihostings , appart from a occasianal doss attach, also we skipped a server now and then Razz It was just because or site moved out of propertion and ate alot of resources we decided too get our own dedicated box so we leasing one now Wink Price of leasing our own box was cheaper then getting a dedicated server with flexihostings although they gave us MAJOR discount.

Well, maybe I just had a really bad experience with them. Up to this day I am still waiting for answers to messages I have posted about 4 months ago. Good thing I did not hold by breath. I still won't recommend them, but I have heard many good things about www.ionhosting.com/home.php - These guys have the chepest prices I've seen so far and you just have to have a look at what they offer as far as bandwidth and so forth.

So, I looked ION Hosting.
It's cheap, and I receive 1000mb + 50GO of monthly bandwith.
I think that for 7.55$ monthly, it's really cheap.
Does someone knows if the quality is in the place... really?
See ya!
