Why do you continue to use them? This is an ongoing problem. Do yourself a favor and get to the bottom of it or move along onto a new host. Downtime and issues like this are unaceptable.

I've sent them 3 cancellation emails since May 9th. Never a response. I'm about to chargeback that shit, I've already moved all my stuff off of their servers.

I have gone with Jupiter Hosting, 0 problems, I advise you the same.. just talk with them before deciding anything..

Addendum: I did intesive (I mean intesive) research before deciding and my only other option was webair, fyi.

Creepy, anyone ever notice that when someone is asking about hosting there is someone with a candid sig in the thread within minutes. When there is a problem, they are nowhere to be found. Not bagging on anyone, just an observation.

i think alot of other people have noticed too. they can be a little elusive when it comes to support.

This is just a theory and perhaps only a fiction...
Imagine someone hosted on candid decides to fuck someone other's site using variety of crappy network attacks. The admin of the attacked site sends several emails and no reply, so he decides to strike back. The fastest solution... fuck the routers and all clients start experiencing problerms... but the attacks on his site get minimized also because of the bad network performance the offending host has too.


Of course, this is just a theory... and has never happened

I would say WebAir as well. As far as ICQ spams, its probably spammers who join their reseller program. WebAir will ban those people instantly as soon as they find out who they are. The guys at WebAir are very stand-up and straight shooters.

Mike will beat just about anyone's prices.

2. We did charge back a hosting agreement we had once cuz we signed a "6 month contract". Now I did say that in English right? "6 months".

Yet Candid took it upon itself to continue to bill us then said we were supposed to cancel.

I did say the contract said "6 months" right?

So there you go........my

This does seem to be a weekly thread . . .

At some point you have to take responsibilty for continued downtime afterall you continue to stay with them.

I can only say good things about Oxeo I have only been there a couple of months and haven´t had any problems.

Fast email support usually within 15-30 minutes, nice people that know what they are doing I can´t imagine going anywhere else.

just my and refcode ;)

You'd think with all these Candid techsupport complaints, they'd hire more help down there for their clients.

Anyway, how long was candid downtime today?

I've had nothing but problems with Candid since I moved to them... I signed a 12m contract so I'm stuck with an empty server until Oct.

I've moved everything to RS. More stable, faster, cheaper.
