The business will not continue. All services including power, bandwidth, and technical support will be shutdown at 9:00 AM CST on December 24, 2008, tomorrow. We will begin shutting down servers this evening around 8:00 PM CST, December 23, 2008 starting with accounts which have outstanding/past due balances.

If you have paid your bill and are current, you may contact us at [email protected] or by phone: (713) 936-2388 to delay your shut-off time until 9:00 AM CST tomorrow morning.

Damn i'm lucky that i've moved to an other host..

Super Negro · 12-23-2008, 04:11 PM

nice to see their sign up forms still work and accept cards...makes you wonder how much they will make keeping them up and never responding to emails

LiveDose · 12-23-2008, 04:49 PM

Pretty clear from that statement why they are done...

AdultEUhost · 12-23-2008, 04:53 PM

damn that sucks but i guess it was just a matter of time, hope people can make it in time to move their stuff

Si · 12-23-2008, 04:55 PM

Good bye alpha!

Iron Fist · 12-23-2008, 05:09 PM

Well that's a Merry Christmas if I ever saw one.

i doubt that but you never know, there are a lot of hosts which can not match their pricing, including me

MaDalton · 12-23-2008, 05:16 PM

i think that answers the questions if a host can survive on 6 bucks per gig

no shit

BUT in all fairness wasnt their demise caused by something else ?

wyldblyss · 12-23-2008, 05:18 PM

Not a whole lot of notice, especially this time of year. I am sure there will be a few scrambling to get things moved

Had to be more than just that.. other wise they could have just raised the prices.

Correction: $4

AdultEUhost · 12-23-2008, 05:34 PM

i think you guys mean 4 or 6 $ per meg instead of per gig

sorry but your clueless their pricing model is not what killed them.

Manowar · 12-23-2008, 07:06 PM

not too surprising now

Paul&John · 12-24-2008, 04:47 AM

Anyway the timing kinda sucks

JimmiDean · 12-24-2008, 06:31 AM

I think most people moved a few weeks back , but there will always be a few who missed it.
