When I first signed up for INI, everything went fine for the first few weeks. Then, 2 to 3 day long complete server outages started happening every week, countless vital emails were lost during those outages. As I speak, their POP3 and MySQL servers are offline for the SIXTH day in a row.

Customer service? Oh, what a joke... while the POP3 server is offline, their support addresses are as well. Well, no worries there right? Just call them... WRONG! The phone number that is listed in the INIhosting.com whois sheet is disconnected and their alledged "new" phone number used on the credit card billing statement is disconnected too! But it gets even better... their main support page is a 404 and has been for months, they have also discontinued their "live" support, not that it ever existed. Even if all services are running smoothly, they will not respond to emails.

On top of all of that, I've encountered numerous billing errors with them and I've finally had enough, I'm moving my site to another host and dropping that credit card so they can't try ripping me off for more money.

The bottom line - If your looking for a host, avoid these jokers at ALL costs! If your already hosted under them, check out LunarPages.com and Dot5Hosting.com for better alternatives... in any event, get out while you still can!
