My web hosting fucked up all of my sites and wouldn't fix it

I'm using Dream Host. Been using them for 15 years. They've decided to move my server from one place to another and ended up fucking everything up to the point where my sites are down. After 3 days of trying to get a hold of them they finally told me that they aren't fixing it and it's my problem!!!

WTF!!!??? What do I do???

Switch hosts asap... can you post all your correspondence?

...and, talk with way3.com about managed server. Not the cheapest and not the most expensive but... just go with them and thank me later. The owner Chris will also take all your sites and databases and make everything work, free of charge.

Just looked at their site and it looks awful. I'm not sure if I want to trust them with anything. Also, their prices start at $300/mo. for a dedicated server and right now I pay like $150/mo.

How did I treat you? I appreciated your post and I went there and I looked. But I gave you my honest feedback. I didn't mean to offend.

I stopped using Dreamhost back in in 2008 when they over-billed pretty much every customer.

Talk to mojohost and see if they can get you on a managed server.

That sucks man, it's hard to find good hosting. I've used DWHS / Web Host Pro since 2003 and it's been really good. Website Web Hosting - WebHost.pro

Have you tried to restore a back up? I have a bunch just in case.

I'm not talking about me dip shit. I'm making an observation of the posts in this thread and comparing that to a host not willing to fix something they allegedly broke.
