Im learning now that a lot of companies do use contracts. A lot dont. There is no good or bad guy here if they do or dont use one. The contracts are used to protect the company. The intent of them isnt to trick customers or use them for shakedowns. The old Jupiter or any host for that matter didnt seek out to shake people down.


What Navisite is doing here to me and what I have learned in the last 12 hours they are doing to MANY other people in our biz is special.
And to do this to me over a single 10mpbs server becasue I told them I wanted to leave and it was 3 weeks after this auto renewing contract is really just an assholeish move in there part. Nothing less. Sure Biz is Biz. Contracts are contracts but this is an abuse of the fact.

And for those of you saying well if they are going to charge you for it keep the server, take note that I closed the server back in NOV of 2007. Thats 2007. We are now over 1 year after the fact. I wasnt presented with this huge fine until March I believe it was.
