Default Warning To Anyone Looking For Hosting

Please read the blog post in my signature about Hosting.

LGWebs scammed me, and PayPal wont do anything. Dumbasses.

DONT GO WITH THEM. HE IS A LYING, CHEATING, BASTARD.

I was promised a cPanel, I get some crappy control panel that cant even manage files.

£10 - aint a lot, but still.
I was gonna be using this hosting as backup for WebGamesNetwork.com - Play Free Games (server is changing hosts)

So, Im trying to get the money back by selling sponsorships on my site. Let me know if anyone is interested.

I would NOT recommend Dreamhost. They screwed me over bigtime and getting my money back ended up being a huge hassle.

YEp Hostgator is my choice, their service is outstanding. The live chat is so fast and they are just so helpful.
Very cheap 2, especailly compared to where I live(Australia)

Ok i may have said something wrong there saying dream.... lol yea i would go for hostgator too even though there live support is like your speaking to monkeys that gota hold of keyboards lmfao...

Code:
Antoni: its my main domain name though for the shared account Antoni: is that possiable to do? transfer my domain from hostgator to a other host but keep it pointing to hostgators servers? Joseluis R.: What were you planning on using hostgator for, hosting the site, or your email? Antoni: yes continuing to host the site Antoni: but as my main domain name for my shared account Antoni: get the domain name (A) to be transfered from (A) to location (B) but keep the domain pointing to the shared hosting account i still have with you hostgator which is (A) Joseluis R.: I dont see why you would like to move hosting companies and still keep hosting your site with us, it would be the same as staying where you currently are. Antoni: lol....... ok now what im saying is YES im keeping the hosting with hostgator ok? BUT only transfering the domain to a other domain host you see its to keep all my domains in one place i own over 26 Antoni: im just that sorta person who likes to keep everything in order Antoni: im not asking for advice im requesting it is can it be done and if yes then how much for it to be done Antoni: ok... a more simple idea here Antoni: work with me ok? Antoni: pichashare.com unlock it and give me the authorisation codes? Joseluis R.: Ok, yes i do understand, it pretty much is up to the customer if you wis to do this task Joseluis R.: All DNS needs to still point to its current location. Antoni: yes Antoni: very correct Antoni: well done! =D Joseluis R.: No problem, Antoni: so would i need to email support to get this process done? Antoni: Y/N Joseluis R.: To transfer out, everything is left to the customer. Joseluis R.: We cannot help transfer out. Joseluis R.: I do apologize, however it is company policy Antoni: wait then how the heck can i get a domain which is in your hands accessed to transfer it? Antoni: hmm ok.. Antoni: how about this Antoni: how do i get unlock the domain and get the auth codes? Antoni: as the customer Joseluis R.: Well you will be able to login, back up all the files you will need, via FTP, then transfer them to your other hosting company, Have you checked if they offer transfers? Antoni: .... Antoni: your not understanding Antoni: seriously ok bare with me here Antoni: just the domain im speaking about Antoni: the domain is currently under hostgator right now Antoni: i want that domain Antoni: ok that one pichashare.com Antoni: from you guys Antoni: to other guys? Antoni: get me now? Antoni: not the files Joseluis R.: Yes, like i mentioned i do understand what you are trying to accomplish. Antoni: and your understanding that? Antoni: because i clearly don't see it Antoni: as a customer i got the right to control it Joseluis R.: You pretty much will just need to open up an account with them with this domain you have with us. <------ At This Point I Was Angry... ------> Antoni: so what your saying is im pritty much screwed the jokes on me because i can't move the domain on its own correct? Antoni: everything has to go at once? Antoni: is that what your saying? Antoni: its ok i found a way Joseluis R.: No, if you are just moving the name to a new hosting Antoni: thanks for nothing hostgator Antoni: support sucks clearly.. Joseluis R.: You need to sign up with the domain name you want. Antoni: THE DOMAIN IS UNDER YOU GUYS Joseluis R.: Then everything needs to keep pointing to us, just like you mentioned you want it. Antoni: your hosting the thing Joseluis R.: Yes, i do see that, Antoni: right never mind Antoni: im getting outa here before i start swearing at you Joseluis R.: And yes, you are able to have a domain with two hosting companies. Joseluis R.: OK, no problem.

Wow yeah, that guy doesn't know a thing. I clearly knew what you where tring to say you wanted to change REGISTERS. eg.) switch it to name cheap or godaddy or whereever. correct? I have never had that problem with host gator. He way probally just being a a$# if you know what I mean, and he is full of it when he says its against company policy to help transfer domains, hostgator helps you move domains correct, so they cant help you move? all they want is to have a lot of "HOSTED DOMAINS" well i need to stop before i get mad myself.
