isaac, 04th 2008f July, 2008

I believe 3ix is very reliable if you abide by their terms and conditions. They should keep up with communicating with their customers directly and taking them personally not shutting them down like nobodies at their own disgression. Its very frustrating getting the right hosting company this days but 3ix.org is reliable.

Chiku, 03rd 2008f July, 2008

Thiis is very nice hosting company have a greate support.

They are constant LIARS and full of false promises. I asked them 2 years ago why they were lying about the location of their data centre. Came back with '.. have not yet updated our web page..' Still says in Texas which is CR*P. Address in Houston is a "front"

hmmm..... looks like I got to avoid this guy!!!

MS, 08th 2008f June, 2008

The worst company is the world. Only with them for two weeks and my sites worked every other day to none at all. Email issues an hour after signing up. Support always said my site worked fine on their end...my site is for the public, not them. Argued for 3 days with "live chat" for refund...and then they begged me to stay and tried to offer me free month. Moved to HostGator and no problems since.

Adam Waterman, 05th 2008f June, 2008

I host about 20+ domains on that hosting package the extreme one...until tonight that is whereby i tried to login and noticed my cpanel pw wouldnt work. so i contact support and they tell me my plan has been terminated as i was hosting a rapidshare script on it! I had never done such thing and had obviously been hacked..they support wouldnt even give me straight answers. i am so dispondant..5 months of no hassles and then something like this happens....wish i knew of a place to find hosting the same price but with better service. maybe i will try hostgator. 3ix. thanks for making my life a living hell. if i knew who and where u where id put a bullet through ur dumbass.

To all giving positive reviews on 3ix, you totally came from 3ix. Tell the truth that 3ix is unreliable, always down, no redundant servers, only 1 uplink provider. 3ix data center it totaly crap & sure their location is in garage. Try to call them they dont answer phone call...one reason THEY ARE AFRAID!!

Howard, 23rd 2008f May, 2008

3ix hosting is totally unprofessional! they dont have redundant server.always down & they always telling you bear with them. try to see it by yourself and sure you will dismay on 3ix services....

Edwin, 23rd 2008f May, 2008

DONT EVER get 3ix...they don't have redundant servers, they have on 1 uplink provider.as this moment month of MAY 2008 11th time their downtime..& now may 24, 29 hours downtime..

David, 23rd 2008f May, 2008

No problems here. Fast to deal with issues on Live Support. Wouldn`t use them for big sites, but for small clients, they appear fine.

groo, 22nd 2008f May, 2008

I found this initially perfect for my needs. Just a bare-bones host for peanuts. Surpisingly good CP with lots of goodies too.

Never had downtime problems...

But I have recently had spam issues, plus this f#$king hacking is giving me the s$#ts.

They'd better clean up there act ASAP or I'll take my peanuts elsewhere.

Another unhappy 1, 13th 2008f May, 2008

Ok for 1.5 years.
Terrible since last mth.
Endless downtime.
Moving out now.

Tom, 13th 2008f May, 2008

I recently had to transfer my hosting and domain off of 3IX. (At one point I had 5 websites operating with 3ix). They have internal security issues.

Their hosting service has been completely comprimised by some hacker do not keep any private information online. I was regularly having to clean out my index pages from some hacker's code that was inserting hidding iframes to push malware. 3IX unresponsive to this issue. AVOID. Also watch out for these fake positive comments.

I purchased Excite (1$ hosting plan), installed wordpress and form software. After 2 weeks the server, where my web site was hosted failed. They could not recover my web site and offered me as a compensation 15 days free hosting, meaning 0.5 $. Afterwards they changed this to 30 days. They refuse to give me any other compensation.

What do you think I should do? Should I accept this or is there a way to get smth more from these people?

Their servers suck. Until server totally failed there were frequent shut downs and web site did not function properly. I would recommend to everyone: DESPITE THE FACT THAT THEY HAVE CHEAP HOSTING (1$) NEVER USE THEIR SERVICE, IF YOU WANT TO MAKE ANYTHING SERIOUS. THIS IS THE WORST CHOICE EVER...

p.s. forgot to mention that their control panel also sucks. You can not even change CNAMES for your domain. You have to contact them through live chat and ask them to do that for you...

Pinki, 30th 2008f April, 2008

Many time site down ! and every time same reply from online chat team that they restarted service and now all OK - OR - Our admin works on server and he solve problem as soon as possible ! BUT the truth is they servers are too much OLD ! They didn't given me a refund for my domain and I loose all :( - VERY BAD HOSTING COMPANY 3iX.org...

mike, 30th 2008f April, 2008

Started off ok and then i had one site banned because i'd apparently sent spam - which i'd never ever done.

Past few days has been a nightmare though - one site disappeared for 4 days and i got no reply from any tickets raised.
Main issue just now is hackers who seem to get access with ease and paste java code onto homepage - I changed passwords to ones with tons of symbols and still they were back in within minutes....
Of course you do get what you pay for in life and they are INCREDIBLY cheap, but you still want to have some sort of reliability otherwise the cheap price backfires because of the time you have to waste sorting things!

Chief, 29th 2008f April, 2008

Been with them 2 years, mostly they have been ok, uptime is more like 96%

Their staff are complete liars, disgusting, They pretend to be american, although I'm getting the feeling they are sitting in some crap hole in India.

They cannot answer simple questions.
They keep pasting bullcrap, it's like talking to a monkey.

Don't even try to ask them multiple questions or a sentence that is more that 10 words, they will just ignore you for an hour or so, and say is there anything else we can help you with.

Recently I wanted them to update me to PHP5, they told me it would take 30-60 mins, 5-7 mins, 1-2 hours, 3-4 hours, 6-8 hours. Everytime you open a chat even if it is with the same person, they have a new time, it actually took almost 40 hours, that wouldn't of been a problem if they told me that in the first place, rather than me sitting at my computer all day refreshing the pages.

If I wasn't persistant, they wouldn't of done it.

They also keep refering to the Ticket ID, when you contact the support.

When you give them the ticket ID, they say they cannot find it.

And their support doesn't even answer anyway.

Anything I finally got that sorted...
Then I had a new issue, I wanted to install a SSL I purchased.

Now when I asked to use their shared SSL it took just a few mins.

Anyway back to the purchased one from another company, they promised me it would take also just a few mins, i've had around 14 chats with them over the last 30 hours, each time they give me a time.

Your SSL will be installed within 60 minutes, etc etc. Thats been going on for 30 hours now.

They lie after lie, and then when your ask why they lie, they just ignore.

You know what, I'm fed up, I could complain about them all night.

Although their actual website hosting is good value for money, i.e. hosting 10 sites for £50 a year with plenty of bandwidth and online space.

Other than that, it's total shite, if you want upgrades or install SSL's or anything that requires 2 mins of work.

Also what is with the pricks from 3ix pretending to be happy buyers. They make too many errors and repeats in what they say and the names they use...

anon, 28th 2008f April, 2008

Went with them, great price. Except they got hacked which has brought my site down and almost everyother hosted on their 'reliable' servers. I am going to pay extra but that extra will give me peace of mind.

DO NOT GO WITH THEM PLEASE!
lets hope they all lose their jobs for such a shit company

Private, 04th 2008f April, 2008

I've been hosted with them for about a year now, I'm 50/50 with them. They suspended my account because of resource usage and I'm paying for unlimited bandwidth. When I contacted them they gave me false logs and said my site would be up in 24 hours.

The came 24 hours, I had to contact them AGAIN. After I contacted them again I told them I want my site back online now. And then they turned it back on.

The host is good for a starter, but if your site is big then this host is not for you. Also, it seems they fixed their downtime.

Jonny, 02nd 2008f April, 2008

3ix - has got to be the very worst hosting company I’ve come across in using many different hosts (for different projects) over the last 11 years!

They (and host-care.com) are completely useless.

1. Their service is unreliable

2. They have a lot of security holes

3. They will only communicate with you if and when it suits them

The final straw came, when after breakfast I went online to find an email from them saying - ‘Account terminated due to a report from spamcop’!

They hadn’t emailed me to ask or debate - just chopped me and all of the sites (+ valuable data) off!

And could I contact them - by any means? - Not a chance!

They had sent me the email header - I processed it through spamcop - and it actually showed that the offending source was from elsewhere!

I am currently trying to relocate around 8 websites and domains - but as yet, have not heard from them - and have lost all of my clients data.

:-(

Drubei, 26th 2008f March, 2008

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY! Worst support ever. Not to mention they will suspend without notice and delete your data. You would have to be the a major idiot to go with them.

AoN , 26th 2008f March, 2008

don't say with this host they are lier they will suspend Your account without inform Yew and delete all Your data and they are big cheater they did not give Your money back

AoN, 26th 2008f March, 2008

Don't use ever 3ix.org, they will suspend Your account without inform Yew, and delete all files on Your files,and did not also refund Your money, they are big liers, please don't ever use 3ix

Mark, 22nd 2008f March, 2008

In rsponse to the guy who says they have a good chat help facility - IT IS A FRONT !
Yes the chat help appears friendly but they have to pass your query onto the quys who can actually help you - so what a waste of time......your problem is your own if its too much like hard work for them.....

Mark, 22nd 2008f March, 2008

I have no problem with the 3ix hosting but their customer service team need a kick up the ass.

They registered my domain name when the hosting package was opened. We gave them our details for the Domain name ownership and they ignored this and registered OUR domain name in their compnay name.

Now they tell me it is impossible to change the details - which I know is an absolute lie.

I get the same response from the and no HELP at all just 'Thankyou for hosting with 3iX - and We are your friend in the business' what a load of CRAP. If you are looking for customer service I would say be vary wary as customer service is very important in web hosting.

To date I still haven't had an apology nor have they attempted to change the ownership of my domain name to my own details.

I now have a website that is not mine but I have access to it. DO NOT PURCHASE YOUR DOMAIN NAME FROM THESE GUYS - INSTEAD REGISTER YOUR OWN OR GO TO SOMEONE ELSE !!!! 5/5 FOR HOSTING 0/10 FOR INTEGRITY AND 0/10 FOR CUSTOMER SERVICE. AND DEFINATELY NO FRIENDS OF MINE !!!

ticket after ticket...when your on the live chat...they always say..ticket...yeah your ticket..blah blah...but after 20 hours of being down..they still say ticket ticket...then really.....your money could be best invested in a more professional reliable company/online host......

This is not a hosting service...this is just making a buck from 2 million people...wow...thats alot huh...not so cheap after...all...they must be using the logic of cheap ....bring quantity...rather than quality....

site owner, 14th 2008f March, 2008

this company really needs to close down.
There must me someone that can bring these people down...There service is absolutely disgusting....DON T THROW YOUR PRECIOUS DOLLAR ON THIS TRY HARD COMPANY

3ix SUCKS my domain timed out all the time and when tested from other remote server they showed it as timing out as well, read this and see how 3ix sucks yet tries to still promote their services to what only have people demand refunds?

nick, 10th 2008f March, 2008

3ix sucks my site timed out all the time and it timed out when testing from other remote sites so it wasnt just my connection they said it was the backup script casuing high CPU usage then another excuse then another each time saying the admins were working on it and to try logging in again later. Login to what? I couldn't access my site and the people at 3ix keep posting here to try and prevent them from having a bad reputation. You want a good positive review? Fix your servers.

Tom, 07th 2008f March, 2008

The Good: Cheap cheap cheap, nice Cpanel. The online support is quick as long as they actually can fix your prob. However I highly recommend changing your password afterwards.

The Bad: Search "3ix script hack" on Google. Read the complaints about a turkish hacker that has completely compromised their network.

I've got 4 sites hosted by 3IX and each week I have to remove some hacker's script from all my index files. (Its a script that opens an invisible IFRAME for some reason).

Be aware the default password they assign is just a string of numbers with no letters, which I believe is easily hackable.

praxymetry.com, 06th 2008f March, 2008

3ix is the worst I have seen.
Their money back guarantee appears to be a joke. Don't use this guy.

Pathetic customer service.

tag, 06th 2008f March, 2008

They are also running apache 1.X mean while the latest is 2.2.8 so im sure thats not helping them much.

3ix in my opinion SUCKS

tag, 06th 2008f March, 2008

My site times out 50% of the time, i've checked through multiple speed/website check and almost half time out they first said it was a backup script running causing high CPU usage that was when I first opened my account and now they say its an upstream problem. Im getting a refund now and moving my domain. Thank god I kept my files on another server and haven't changed my DNS hoping this problem would go away oh well they lost another cusomter

Saud, 01st 2008f March, 2008

I like their service and I have no problem. I have used their live chat system and they immediately solved my problem.

LW, 01st 2008f March, 2008

To the spammer, you can't silence me or my review! This is a repost of my original review. I've since moved to HostGator & I'm very happy with them so far.

*****
I've been using 3ix.org for 6 months now, & up until a few weeks ago, they were tolerable. The price is right, but you get what you pay for! The support team always assumes you're a moron & only answers one question at a time (so if you ask them to perform 3 tasks in 1 message, they'll do the first, claim they're done, then you have to keep writing back & pestering to get the other 2 tasks done.

So that's how it's been for me the whole time. Those were the good old days compared to the past 3 weeks. They've added too many sites to the shared server I'm on (I'm using the $88/year xtreme plan) & now my sites go offline multiple times a day. I signed up with an uptime monitoring company, & I'm seeing times as low as 84% for a day. Here's the full report so far:

I hope that all shows up the way it should, since I just copied & pasted it in.

When I contacted sales about canceling & getting a pro-rated refund, they told me they don't do that after the 30 day trial period & that I can request credits for my downtime-- credits, not a refund. So now, I have to either wait until Sept. to let my contract run out or I cut my loses & let those bastards keep my money without having to work for it.

It's insanely frustrating for me, especially when 2 tech agents will admit that the sites are down because of the load on the server, while another will tell me everything is fine & to try clearing my cache or trying to access from another computer. They are of no use to me & seriously, DO NOT SIGN UP OR AFTER A FEW MONTHS, YOU'LL BE SCREWED! IF YOU MUST HAVE YOUR SITES AVAILABLE ALL THE TIME, GO ELSEWHERE OR YOU'LL REGRET IT!

aileen slark, 01st 2008f March, 2008

they suck! they really do! They've wiped out the contents of MySql and lost all members from my database. A complete waste of time and money. NEVER FALL ON THIS TRAP, EVER!!!!

LW, 28th 2008f February, 2008

To whomever is posting as vistainter, you're a loser. Do you really think people are dumb enough to think that because you post it 50 times that they'll believe it? It's obvious that you're trying to bump down my HONEST & ACTUAL review. You're shooting yourself in the foot with your overposting!

I've been using 3ix.org for 6 months now, & up until a few weeks ago, they were tolerable. The price is right, but you get what you pay for! The support team always assumes you're a moron & only answers one question at a time (so if you ask them to perform 3 tasks in 1 message, they'll do the first, claim they're done, then you have to keep writing back & pestering to get the other 2 tasks done.

So that's how it's been for me the whole time. Those were the good old days compared to the past 3 weeks. They've added too many sites to the shared server I'm on (I'm using the $88/year xtreme plan) & now my sites go offline multiple times a day. I signed up with an uptime monitoring company, & I'm seeing times as low as 84% for a day. Here's the full report so far:

Gil, 12th 2008f February, 2008

with 1$ per month 3ix is the best web host. Today i got a problem with my site and the 3ix people are very supportive...they answer to my email asap and fix the problem asap...

Elia, 21st 2008f January, 2008

I'V just moved to them from a host that was slow, guess what?.... now i'm slower.
Sometimes my site goes offline, i call the chat and it come s back again....that sucks!!.

I also had a stupid problem, i was unable to upload/restore my database/table FROM MY OLD HOST coz of a problem from their site, i asked them to upload it for me,i waited more than 3 days for a thing that WOULD ONLY haveTAKEEN 5 minutes.

If i had known i wouldn't have chosen them!

It's a shame coz the offer is good and the cpanel is easy to use.If they continue like this many will leave them.

anonymous, 10th 2008f January, 2008

hey mike i think you are from 3ix!!!!! 3ix service suck!!!!!!!!!!!!! for me i will rather pay higher and get a better hosting like hostgator.. Go to hell 3ix

Robin, 05th 2008f January, 2008

They appear to have stolen my domain name, because I cannot use it and they do not fix it (I am in the middle of it). The telephone number in Australia does not work. The positive reviews appear to be writen by 3ix 'plants' - you can tell from the language.

Gee, 01st 2008f January, 2008

Two words for 3ix....

TOTAL FUCKWITS

I was a victim and a patient one at that, so I can post from experience, they don't give a rats arse about customers...avoid!

Alison Evans, 31st 2008f December, 2007

I got a good service from 3ix, been with them nearly 9 months, very happy, and they saved me $, nice :)

Mike, 23rd 2007f December, 2007

Never a problem with 3ix, good service, amazing price!

Nigel, 23rd 2007f December, 2007

I have been with 3ix for more than 2 years, and also recommended many friends, I've always found them to be honest and reliable, looks like their competitors posting that rubbish to me, sure it must be very hard to compete with 3ix.

john uk - 21 dec 07, 23rd 2007f December, 2007

what are you neg heads crying about - you pay the equivalent of a pizza a year for a reasonable service - what do you expect? try using your own server & you might have something to winge about!

Adam, 22nd 2007f December, 2007

3ix host more than 30,000 sites, I know many people who host with them, never heard of any such problems or scams. the 3ix deals are very competitve, certainly the best in the world if you search on Google. I think this might be the only way competitors can compete with them, It's easy to write lies about 3ix like this without even posting your real name or any real details of proof of a problem. Looks like competitors posting this rubbish to me, I think 3ix must put a lot of hosting companies out of business with their deals, Adam

3IX FRAUD, 19th 2007f December, 2007

ANYONE WHO HAS BEEN ABUSED BY 3IX.com PLEASE REPORT TO 3ix.fraud@gmail.com (THIS IS A GROUP OF PEOPLE THAT WILL SUE 3XI). WE ARE COLLECTING VICTIMS, WITNESSES, TESTIMONIES AND OTHER EVIDENCE OF CRIME ESPECIALLY IDENTITY THEFT AND DOMAIN THEFT.

Mickel, 14th 2007f December, 2007

after read all this i am not bying. but never know if all this is true

John, 13th 2007f December, 2007

A+ happy with 3ix :)

William Redgrave, 10th 2007f December, 2007

Uptime great, service perfect, cost amazing, thanks 3ix!

Nigel, 29th 2007f November, 2007

3ix give me good service, no worries.

Ravi, Mumbai, India, 29th 2007f November, 2007

3ix good for me too, 3ix resolve any issues fast on the live chat, that is an important feature of their service for me.

Mark Chan, Singapore, 29th 2007f November, 2007

3ix have been reliable for me, I'm hosting 3 sites there for nearly 1 year, other host have given me problems, 3ix always been fine and good price too, I like them.

Match, 27th 2007f November, 2007

Terrible support, this is like the third time they suspended my site without informing me and this them they terminated my service with them. I am moving on to find a better host

wicked, 27th 2007f November, 2007

I'm not pleased with 3ix.org. Right from the start things went wrong. My website is slow or times out, password protected directories are suddely wide open without me changing anything, security issues (exploits changing my index.php), stats disappearing, etc. And they make it seem like I am the one who's doing things wrong.

Helen Blake, 25th 2007f November, 2007

Happy with 3ix :)

Carol Bartlett, 18th 2007f November, 2007

3ix have always given me good service, 14 months now.

Mike, Perth, Australia, 14th 2007f November, 2007

Been with 3ix for about 9 months, service has been great, and all for $1 a month, I also recommend 3ix, try them!

Adam, 10th 2007f November, 2007

3ix.org average uptime is 99.988%, 3 years in business, 30,000 clients, $1 a month, their offer is hard to beat.

Adam, 10th 2007f November, 2007

My experience of 3ix has always been positive, I have recommended them to my friends.

Janice, Florida, 08th 2007f November, 2007

3ix have always given me good service, no serious downtime, the live chat is great, I think they manage 100's of servers so performance might vary, I think they must work very hard, certainly we don't pay them much.

James, 08th 2007f November, 2007

Yes, that is true. Tech support is fast. But I don't need tech support, I need my website to be up all the time.

People, I paid 3ix to earn money and not to lose my clients

EdgeDudeRocks.com, 08th 2007f November, 2007

I have 3ix as my hosting provider and I am very happy with them, pages load fast, ftp is great and no slowing down durinf file transfers and tech support were fast responses.

James, 07th 2007f November, 2007

I hope all these people trying to sell 3ix will go to hell. I have an online business and if my websites are flat how would I reach my clients?

I'm really very frustrated with 3ix.org. I'm moving out to namecheap for my domain and hostgator for my hosting. I can't believe i'm going to pay again just to transfer my domain.

3ix.org has been excellent for a few weeks, but right now.. i'm really tired of it. I don't want to LOSE ANY MORE...

James, 07th 2007f November, 2007

Why are all these people saying that 3ix.org is excellent. Are we not located on the same server? OMG! but today, two times my websites are unreachable.

Dave, 06th 2007f November, 2007

UNDERSTANDING AND HELPFUL!!!! You have to be joking! I have just tried to access my site again and guess what? Its DOWN! Not only that but the 3ix site itself is down too, meaning I can't contact them to hear more lies about how long the problems are going to be!

Mark Wilson, 03rd 2007f November, 2007

I have tried more than 10 hosting companies over the years, all have a problem at some time, I have 4 sites at 3ix, the 3ix uptime and support is good and comparable to hosts 3 or 4 times the price, I was with Godaddy and had so many problems, then moved to 3ix and have been happier and saved $, the personal service of 3ix is far better than Godaddy, and the control panel of 3ix is must more friendly and with more features, I have no hesitation recommending 3ix, there will be problems with any hosting company, you need to understand that, try to be understanding and helpful with your hosting company, In my experience 3ix work as fast and hard as any to deal with problems, try them.

Nathan, 02nd 2007f November, 2007

I started using 3ix hosting. The first time I tried to connect, the server was down. Finally it came back up, I started uploading my files. It went down again before they finished.

For 3 days I checked the site about once an hour. It was down about 25% of the time.

The live support person denied any problems.

$1 a month may be cheap, but it's not worth it.

Dave, 29th 2007f October, 2007

Been with them a couple of weeks and nothing but trouble with mySQL database. Contact them over 10 hours and they say it will be resolved in 30 mins. CRAP!!!!! Second day in a row that my site is down and can't work on it. At this rate I wont have my site ready by next Xmas never mind this one! STAY CLEAR AND PAY THAT LITTLE BIT EXTRA FOR RELIABLE HOSTING!!!!

Mike, 12th 2007f October, 2007

Always been happy with 3ix

Samy, 12th 2007f October, 2007

I have nothing but things to say. I hots 3 websites with them.

James, 09th 2007f October, 2007

And Oh by the way, I'm writing this now because I couldn't access my site. If I did, I wouldn't be writing this one. shame

James, 09th 2007f October, 2007

I have 3 websites hosted in them. Lately, I can't access my sql and my website. I use their live chat and walah my website is up again. I don't know what they are doing but I'm moving out to Godaddy

Gail, Australia, 07th 2007f October, 2007

3ix have been excellent!

Stanley Edge, 07th 2007f October, 2007

Many thanks for the speedy and inexpensive solution to my web site hosting.
I had my little site up and running within an hour.
Thank you and my best wishes to you - Stanley

Brian, 28th 2007f September, 2007

3ix service has been pefect for me, I do search engine work and have nearly 40 sites on their servers, sure there can be problems, same with any hosting company, but the live chat is very helpful and get's things sorted, and very affordable, I recommend 3ix

Corkz, 26th 2007f September, 2007

Wel thats enough to put anyone off using them if they suck that bad

Chris, 18th 2007f September, 2007

Becoming very frustrated with trying to change Domain. Been with them since May last year started off Ok but now trying to get this sorted is taking months (literally). Every reply seems to contradict the previous one. I'm on the verge of asking for a refund and going elswhere if they can sort what ought to be a simple problem out.

bary, 15th 2007f September, 2007

can't acces their website since 2 weeks

Sarah, 15th 2007f September, 2007

I have been with 3ix for almost a year, the only problem I had was could not login to my cpanel, I asked their live chat, it was working again within a few minutes, overall I am happy with them.

Another victim, 14th 2007f September, 2007

Please note if you see good comments about this company they are all made by themselves not by users. and I am sure a lot people do not have a place to express their problems or they do not know about here. go and search in google you will find a lot.

Another Victim, 14th 2007f September, 2007

I have become a victim of this fraud and I am going to report this to authorities.
I am doing this not because if me alone but because I am sure there are a lot of victims out there who silently suffered and went away. I think we should make a community and inform others about this company as well.

Toni, 12th 2007f September, 2007

I started using 3ix a few years ago and found their customer support very good. I recommended them to friends whom also use them. The last few months have been disgusting! I have 4 sites which always seem down on a weekly basis and as above they tried to blame my pc. Their 24 hour customer support is also useless. All you get are automated replies!

Time to dig into my wallet and pay a little more for better hosting. You do get what you payed for $1 !!!!

Justin, 09th 2007f September, 2007

3ix have more than 30,000 clients, sure I see a few minor complaints, like here, but not as many as their competitors have, I always had good service from them.

Justin, 09th 2007f September, 2007

Never any downtime with 3ix, I have been with them more than 3 years.

dick, 07th 2007f September, 2007

3ix is now in long downtime. I'm new customer, but will have them my money refunded. Also their live chat is useless. never come back. I'm tired of contacting.

Mike Thomas, 30th 2007f August, 2007

Very happy with 3ix, I have found their service reliable, I have been with them for about 7 months, my account was setup instantly, they offer amazing value hosting plans, and they just doubled my space to 2GB for free!

Anonymous, 21st 2007f August, 2007

I have used the cheapest package (a dollar per month) for 3 months. Everything look fine. The speed is not very fast but acceptable. Never experience downtime, good value.

Sir David Laine, 06th 2007f August, 2007

I aggree with all the negative comments, I would not touch tjhem with a ten foot Barge pole, My advice Stay clear

John, 25th 2007f July, 2007

Very happy with 3ix, emailed support last week, they replied in 8 minutes.

Fas, 22nd 2007f July, 2007

Had my account activated instantly , everything has been quick and good, i´m very happy choising 3ix for hosting.

Ian Gilbert, 19th 2007f July, 2007

Been with 3ix for a couple of years, very pleased, they may have had small service difficulties during their growth, but I find that service is pretty much perfect now, I love the instant support chat service.

rob, 14th 2007f July, 2007

May I point out that I am on their cheapest package ($1/month) and it is 1000mb space, not 100mb as stated here. Also, I have been with them for about a month and had no problems at all, even though they are based in the US and I am in the UK.

Seean, 10th 2007f Ju
