SurfSpeedy Hosting...

Ok so I heard from someone that I should use surfspeedy hosting for my vbulletin site, so I checked out their site, it was cheap and they looked great. Now a month later, I wish I would have never though about using surfspeedy in any way possible.

Their security is horrible, and my site got hacked through another account on the server. Then then attempted to fix it and made it worse by deleting my files on accident which were not recently backed-up. Then they told me they would have everything fixed in about 3 hours. FIVE DAYS LATER... I finally got sick of their lies and contacted their manager and told him exactly what was on my mind.

His solution for the problem and the havok he reaked on my website? He banned me from their website and will not allow me to usethe support system anymore. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention... my account still is not working and goes on and off from that hack that happened about 6 days ago now.

On their homepage it clearly says that they have 100% satisfaction garantee and 100% uptime. So I figured I would give that a shot through a proxy so I could get on their site. I sent 3 tickets now through their support system in the past 2 days and still no response. I am pretty sure they are just instantly trashing them because I checked the status on them and they say CLOSED.

There has to be so many lawsuits involved in this whole mess, but I personally do not have a lawyer, so what am I to do? Im 16 years old, stuff like this shouldnt be happening to me.

So my advice to you guys... STAY AWAY FROM SURFSPEEDY!

Good day...

I had the same experience with SurfSpeedy hosting :angry: . I strongly agree with you that they have serious security problems and many of my sites got hacked and the SurfSpeedy support team deleted my files while traying to fix the problem.

I am totally dissatisfied with their service and I am struggling with them to cancel my hosting accounts and to release my domains I purchased from them.

:thumbdown: I don't recommend anyone to purchase hosting from SurfSpeedyand I strongly don't advice anyone to purchase domains through them because they are very slow to release control over domains.

Good day.....

I also had issues with SurfSpeedy

Sad to hear that.. and I was targeting them to be my next host :sweatdrop:

Thanks for the feedback, looks like I have to keep searching..

Same here my brother had aserver with them and got hacked like the 2nd day but thank god they refunded him and for real they are awlays slow but i dont know about the downtime.
