I have been with eHost since 2005, and I commend them on there support. a down time disaster, beyond the direct control of eHost can not be forescene, and I personally will wait paititently for everything to be put back to normal.
Thanks Ehost. |

as a previous post stated, it is a fire, and they think it will be solved by late sunday, but this is just to get the server up and running, so it will be at most three days after power up, when the DNS propagation is completed.
|
|
| jason, 01st 2008f June, 2008 |
I have been with them for over a year with minimal problems, mainly start up issues at the start of my contract...
Today (1 June 2008) yes their site is down and could be just a DNS issue.
My sites seems to be ok.
My WHM is working too.
I have just checked all of the sites on my account and all work.
If this issue is DNS related I will be giving them the 72 hours to be back online, which is the most it would take.
if anyone really needs their site back up contact me as my server is not affected.
i am willing to help out for them as they have been their for me a lot over this year.
ok will i do this for nothing, well i am willing to do it for peanuts, a few dollars for time to set it up, yes just a few will keep me happy.
BUT ONLY ABLE TO HELP UNTIL I RUN OUT OF WEBSPACE MYSELF.
i got a plenty of gig left. but will add just enough for each accounts needs.

An electrical fire could happen to any hosting company.
I found info at http://forums.theplanet.com/index.php?showtopic=90185&st=0&p=592355&#entry592355
Hopefully all will be repaired soon and our sites will be up again.

| Concerned Customer, 01st 2008f June, 2008 |
Everything is down on my web site, No email, No FTP server, No access to my domain at all.
You can not even get attached to ehostpros.com either ... nothing is working.
Can not email them as it bounces. This has been over 12 hours ... people can not run their businesses this way.
Does anyone have a phone number that works for them ... Have they dropped off the face of this earth
Does anyone know what is going on or an ETA when they will be back up. |

THE WORST HOSTING COMPANY EVER
My site has been down for 3 days, they won't get back to me, I'm losing money every day, and after I called to complain, I'm pretty sure they just turned off my email (which had been fine immediately before I emailed and called to complain).
My business is totally screwed. Signing up with ehostpros, assuming they just decide not to put my site back up, could end up costing me hundreds or thousands of dollars, not to mention hours and hours of my time.
USING EHOST PROS HAS BEEN THE WORST MISTAKE I HAVE MADE IN MY BUSINESS.
STAY AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
|
| Stan, 30th 2008f April, 2008 |
| I am sitting here helpless today because my websites and email are down. EHP suppourt ticket says their servers are down and they are trying to restore service. My clients are calling, I'm losing so much money trying to run a business at their mercy. It is a hassle to change companies so I feel stuck and hope they get it resolved soon. You should look elsewhere for a hosting service. |
|
| Jesse, 24th 2008f April, 2008 |
DO NOT use ehostpros. They will steal from you.
I used them for 6 years. Everything was fine at first. Then, I registered another domain new domain name with GoDaddy and tried to transfer my existing domain to GoDaddy as well. Ehostpros IMMEDIATELY charged my credit card to renew my existing domain a month before the bill was due. It also took 3 weeks and about 10 hours on their customer support to complete the transfer.
Next, I decided to add an addon domain to my hosting package (still with ehostpros). During setup, everything got screwed up. After many hours on technical support, it was working again. However, every week after that, the addon domain would display a message saying the site was not configured -- they couldn't figure it out.
So, I decided to move my hosting to GoDaddy as well. Again, I was IMMEDIATELY charged for another year of hosting... they claimed it was because I had signed up for automatic payments, but there was no way for me to turn auto payments off or remove my credit card information.
THESE PEOPLE WILL STEAL FROM YOU! |

| Makakiloan, 22nd 2008f April, 2008 |
I'm a long time customer. I've had lots of problems with eHostPros. But overall I still actually think they're okay. Their customer service is terse, but responsive. Their prices are good. Their servers seem to be fast. The problem I'm having with them now is their mail server has been put on a blacklist that one of my clients uses, so now I cannot email that client. But eHostPros is trying to help, so I give them credit for that.
They are definitely not perfect. But maybe all affordable web hosts suck a little, and you just have to be prepared to deal with the suckiness without getting too emotional.
Be a little careful of the glowing reviews on here. I'm willing to bet money some of them were written by people who work for eHostPros, or their family members, or something. I recognize the broken English. |

| Chris, 16th 2008f April, 2008 |
I've had the same reseller package with these guys since almost the beginning of their company. Everything worked fine until I actually tried to *use* it. When it was just a few domains that I owned and used for my own purposes, it was fine.
As soon as I actually wanted to resell hosting packages to clients, things got ugly. I could work around most issues myself, with a little bit of a headache, but when you need things to just "work" so that the phone isn't constantly ringing off the hook, you're going to run into trouble.
Ehostpros is actually reselling dedicated servers from theplanet.com so the actual support they can give you is very limited. If there is an actual issue, they will always have to turn around and resubmit your ticket to theplanet.com's support team, as they seem to be the only ones who can do anything about it.
The server load averages are just plain unacceptable. If there is a surge in traffic from any of the hundreds (or thousands, depending on your server) domains being hosted on the server, the load average jumps to over 4.00 and then requests start to be dropped by the mail server, web server, and database server.
The mail server is pretty much pointless. Because the server is managed by theplanet.com, the resell to ehostpros, ehostpros resells to you, and you resell to your client, any violations of the AUP take so long to discover and correct, that pretty much all of the ehostpros servers are on spammer blacklists.
I had a client that outgrew the shared server, and needed to move to their own dedicated server. Ehostpros actually does everything in their power to prevent you from being able to move even a single domain away from their service. Even if I were to get the dedicated server from them, they would be unable to make the switch without several days of downtime.
After having switched almost all of my business to a new host, I've finally learned what constitutes "good hosting" They are helpful, responsive, and actually have root access to their own servers, so that they can diagnose and repair any issues. The first couple weeks were so quiet, I kept paging myself just to make sure the pager was working.

| I have been with them for years with only 1 or 2 major incidents - they resolve my issues (even those I know aren't their problem) VERY effeciently. There has been a few times my site(s) would go down for an 1 or 2, and I question every once in a while if in the middle of the night my sites are working (maybe 3-4 times a year) but in the end I have not switched in over 8 years and their prices cannot be beat. If I switch from ehost it will only be to a dedicated server I manage which obviously costs four figures a year compared to barely $100 with ehost. |
|
| Nicole, 26th 2008f March, 2008 |
| I've been a customer of this company for over eight years now. The experience used to be wonderful but recently I have had nothing but problems. My sites have been down for more than 48 hours at a time. No one in technical support apparently knows how to fix most of the server problems so they have to contact a third party for repairs. (This has happened more than once.) I've had problems with e-mails being blocked, folders being locked for no reason, etc... and, while tech. support generally fixed all of those problems within 24 hours, the issues would almost always resurface less than a month later. If you enjoy submitting trouble tickets at least once a week, then this is the company for you. |
|
| Fred, 26th 2008f March, 2008 |
| Don't use! I have five sites hosted with them and they locked me out of all of them because of a dispute with one. I paid them and they kept telling me I didn't, even after I sent them a copy of the receipt! I put a lot of time and effort building domain name recognition and now because of them I've lost the names because they will not allow me to transfer them. I'm locked out completely. |

Would not recommend. It appears they can even block your IP addcress from accessing your own c-panel if it so suits them
The close support tickets without finalising them, I also believe they can ban your IP address from accessing the support ticket web page, which becomes apparent when you can access it from any computer other than your own.
I am currently looking for a new host.. not hlding my breath for the refund of the 9 months left that has already been paid for.
Please look elsewhere before deciding what you want out of a hosting company. |

A three answer company, they will not give you more than three answer if your problem cannot be solved within three question.
After that, they will say "it is your problem, every thing in our server is running normal, you should check with your service provider" |

| I was very much satisfied with Ehostpros.com. I am their customer since 2004 and recently they updated their packages and on a request they changed my package to new one and i really appreciate them for their support and response time. while accessing my site i got an forbidden error, than i opened a ticket and it was resolved it less than 5 minutes. I mean to say that their responsive time so fast. And once when i am not able to do ftp under my cpanel, and they requested me to provide the information and they uploaded the files in their chat itself. Later they resolved the issue. |

I will surely recommend people to go for it. |

| Amir, 15th 2007f December, 2007 |
| Absolutely useless switch away check labbb.org. I hosted with them for 3 years and they did ridiculous things like rebuild mail data files at high priority and downtime was ridiculous. I told them several times if they are going to make changes like (PHP SUID) that they should notify the clients. The server I Was wa slike a 1.8ghz celeron with 512MB of ram so ny traffic spike killed the server. I've tried to cancel and so far its been 4 months and no refund. I Switched to hostgator and its been good so not to mention the server is a quad processor 4GB ram monster so even if there are lots of clients at least it can handle some traffic spiking. GET OUT WHILE YOU CAN. If you had a good experience (like I did for a while) its a matter of time till the morons screw it up. |

they seem to go through phases where the service is disgusting - I have had total downtime for 2 days before now, with no response from support.

www.ehostpros.com is not available all over London ..I tried from different IPs...
Also I'm tryinf to send emails to them...everything is bouncing back...
I never heard a hosting company's website is down for more than 10 days..

| Rick, 17th 2007f November, 2007 |
I will not agree, because i am getting very good response from them through
live chat or ticket support. They are having very good facility payment method
(Autobatch process) through CC or paypal and giving 10 days credit time for doing
payment. I am not bother about my website as i am getting paid by autobatch. For
canceling account we have to check on both places ehostpros and paypal. Our self
has to cancel the paypal autobatch process from paypal. They are giving minimum
response for my issues on ticket support. I am very happy ehostpros services.
If they start doing telephone support good for all..... |

| Completely useless. I have been with them for a number of years, and usually not a lot of complaints. BUt in the last year or so, it seems as though their servers are always down, "being maintained" and just aren't working. We have multiple new e-mail problems every week. And the support is a joke. I'd switch to a new host, but first I need my site to go BACK UP so I can download it and move it somewhere with a telephone number. |

They suspended my entire account which hosted several domains because of a "claimed" phishing scam operating on one of the domains. This was A COMPLETE LIE, the most that site did was subscribe to an RSS feed which was cached with a one hour expiration. They feebly re-enabled my account after I wasted hours of my weekend arguing with them, asking over and over again for the proof to their claim which they could not provide. The support people were complete morons. Now, weeks later, the web root of the particular domain that was flagged for the phishing scam is set to 000 permission out of nowhere and the site is inaccessible and I am unable to reset the folder permissions. They aren't telling me what happened, but apparently they just decided to F-CK me over. !?!?! DO NOT EVER USE EHOSTPROS!!!!
Here is a follow up chat conversation and another reason not to go with ehostpros.

Luke Forehand: 755, or drwxr-xr-x
Tom: Please hold
Luke Forehand: ok
Luke Forehand: hello ?
Tom: Thank you for waiting.
Tom: The folder does not allow us to change the permission.
Tom: Please open a ticket to support@ehostpros.com
Tom: we will work on the issue and update you once we fix it.
Luke Forehand: how do I open a ticket?
Luke Forehand: just email them?
Tom: Yes.
Luke Forehand: how soon can this be fixed?
Luke Forehand: and why did ehostpros lock me out of that folder?
Luke Forehand: I have not touched it myself
Luke Forehand: aren't you support ?
Luke Forehand: if so, why do I have to open a ticket to fix it?
Tom: Sorry for the inconvenience.
Luke Forehand: people are waiting for this site to come back up and this is the second time you guys have done something like this to me
Tom: We also do not touch any data of the customer with out their permission.
Luke Forehand: them somebody hacked into your system because only root can do what happened to this folder
Tom: I am sorry Luke |

| Horrible service when you leave EHostPros. If you ever canceled and you have a PayPal account, make sure to remove the automatic renewal that is automatically created when you set up via paypal (something I was not aware of). I canceled my account and I was billed via paypal because a yearly renew subscription was set via paypal. When I contacted them via email, they simply ignore it and never replied. When I used their live support, they told me to email billing and they would handle it. They replied stating they do no give refund, even if I have no account with them and even if the billing was a mistake. I told them that it's not acceptable that they keep my money when I don't even have an account with them. I was told that someone in Admin would look at this and reply ASP. Never heard back from them. I wrote again and still no reply.... So don't get hosting with them. I have switched service with other providers before (for clients) and I have never encountered such problems. This company is very unethical and unprofessional. I started contacting my clients, and they all want to switched to another provider (all my friends are also moving away from them). I will send a complaint to the Better Bussiness Bureau, and I am contemplating legal action. |

| ben, 12th 2007f June, 2007 |
| Does anyone have a phone number where I can speak with a real person? Or even a legitimate mailing address. They are hosting a scraper site that stole thousands of pages of our original content and I am trying to make a formal Copyright Complaint declaration but it seems like all their contact info is false...or at least they don't care enough to answer email. I mailed them a letter and the mailing address on their website (in Santa Monica) bounced. any info would be greatly appreciated. |
|
| Chris, 03rd 2007f June, 2007 |
Step right up! Step right up! This company is like a circus because it's being run by absolute clowns! I received a message that my account was suspended, so I tried logging into my billing page. I had forgotten the password so i used their retrieval feature. I got the login info sent to my email address... but when attempting to use it on the site, it didn't even work! Kept giving me an 'invalid login details' error message.
So then I tried placing a Help Desk ticket, only to discover that their ticketing page doesn't even load! No phone number is provided to contact the Ringmaster on either. So how in the hell am I actually supposed to log-in to settle the bill or get my files downloaded to transfer to another server?
This so-called hosting company is the most dismal excuse for a provider that I have ever come across. I hope you other guys have luck in suing or pressing charges against them, because this is the most expensive, useless, and unfunny sideshow I've ever had the displeasure of experiencing. Stay away from this company if you value your time and your money. You have been warned! |
|
| Wayne, 01st 2007f June, 2007 |
| I started with them almost 4 years ago. Since November last year I have noticed a decline in stability and just this week we lost 2 of our sites + email for 4 days. We emailed support in the end and they gave no explanation. They just emailed back to say it's now fixed. No sorry, no let us give you a free month service for the inconvenience, just it's now fixed. Somethings gone wrong with their company, both hardware stability, software reliability, customer sensitivity and customer support. Vote with your feet. Perhaps they will get the message and start providing some good old service. |

| stay far away. I canceled and I still got billed. talking to their loser support is like talking to a wall. I plan on filing a complaint with Justice Dept. and contacting a lawyer. Total waste of time and money. Always problems never answer tickets. Never give you a straight answer, STAY AWAY! |

Extremely horrible support, and this company will hang up on your "chat" session if they don't like the fact that you are unhappy with them. This company needs to have a suit filed against them for false advertising. I've checked some background and the services that they "SAY" they have are nothing near what they provide their clients, this from folks INSIDE "ThePlanet.COM" where thier servers are hosted in Houston Texas.
eHostPros.Com is a company that practices false advertising. |

just in case you don't believe me... try accessing their support page!
http://support.ehostpros.com/hd/
you may be there some time... |

| internick, 08th 2007f May, 2007 |
they used to be really really good, but in the last 6months + the service has gone from bad to appalling.
I'm currently in the process of migrating ALL my sites and then will close the 2 accounts that i have with them...
If only the support page would load, i might be able to submit a support request! |

| It is the worst! They moved my web site with out notifying me. Then they forgot to put my static IP Address I pay them for on the new server. After I notified them of the mistake, they took a week to put one on the Support people stated they had to order one. I already had an IP address what happened to that one??? I work for a major ISP, I know how IP addresses work they did not have to order one. So they lied all they had to do was to put a secondary IP address on that server and have apache point it to the domain. But if you want anything but the standard package this company is not for you. |

| So I looked up several other reviews. Including IXWebhosting.com which is rated very high on this site. Well there were people complaining on every review list. So ehostpro looks normal compared to other providers reviewed here. I couldn't find reviews for 1&1 or Excite? |
|
| Randy, 28th 2007f April, 2007 |
| I have 3 websites with them. Never any problems. Always fast replies to technical questions. Great prices, never any down time (see great stats in left col). Maybe it's changing or maybe these negatives are from compeditors? Has me wondering. I think I'll check other reviews. |

I've tried cancelling my account with ehosppros 4 times and continue to get billed. As there is no address and phone, I am referring the matter to the Oregon department of consumer affairs (attorney general's office) and California AGO.
They've gone bad to worse-to-worse-to unrateable. I'm now more worried that they are an ID theft mill. |

Terrible support. OScommerce goes down about 2 times per week for days at a time. No phone number or person to gain commitment from. Cannot seem to take permanent corrective action. Same problem over and over and over again.
Check around before signing |

| Terrible. They haven't respond any of my emails since january. The support tickets are not even working. |

Their support is HORRIBLE.
Their downtime is FREQUENT.
no phoneline, frequent downtime, inability to access mailservers. |
|
| Neven, 11th 2007f March, 2007 |
| they even LOST !!! one of my domains ( house-rent.net ). Because of their crappy billing system they didn't charge my credit card on time. In the meantime someone else took the domain but they still charged my credit card after 2 weeks. I can't get the domain back after lot of requests to ehostpros. After some time they simply deleted(!!!) my ticket where I reported that my domain is missing. |

| Jeremy--Wake Forest, NC, 05th 2007f March, 2007 |
I agree they are horrible. I signed up, and never got the 'acceptance email', although I've been billed. It's possible it went to junk mail but I regularly delete it, so I emailed them and asked them to resend the acceptance. They replied "Thank you for ordering with us. We have already setuped your
account and registraed your domain ... and sent
the welcome mail with login info to your billing contact Email-id.... Please check it at your bulk and spam mail list."
So instead of sending me the info and making it simple, they sent me that! I have re-emailed them and am asking for a refund and also reporting them to the Better Business Bureau. I'd encourage any others of you that have problems to do the same! It's one of our only tools as consumers to change the way bad companies work. |

Worst technical support ever!!!!
Do not go with this company. They are no help, will give you the run around, over charge and then when you contact them, they can't and won't understand english. TERRIBLE. Don't waste your time and money with them. |

| bob, 01st 2007f February, 2007 |
| yeah.. they offer a good service for the price. |
|
| Kevin, 24th 2007f January, 2007 |
| I have used ehostpros for almost 3 years. Their service has gone from bad to worse. They are not helpful or responsive to problems which they create. Especially billing problems. I would not reccommend them to anyone I wished to continue doing business with. I have just pulled all my accounts and my reseller package and moved them all to another hosting company. Support at ehostpros is the worst I have ever encountered! |

| Terrible support, no phoneline, frequent downtime, inability to access mailservers. Deplorable (lack of) service. |
|
| JEdwan, 10th 2007f January, 2007 |
I lost my domain access information, so I emailed their customer support to get it. I got worried that they might not send it to me.. so I googled this companies record and came across this page and started reading through the complaints...
before I read through the 4th complaints... I got the email back from ehostpro with my info.... thanks ehostpros |

| Support is awful and billing is horrendous. When I tried switching servers they wouldn't give upthe account. Even though I owned the name. Everything is just a pain. These sort of problems would have been expected over 10 years ago. Not today. |
|
| KP, 14th 2006f December, 2006 |
| Worst Company on the internet!! |
|
| Anne-Marie, 09th 2006f December, 2006 |
| Stay away! They suspended my account before my invoice due date because they claimed they are moving to a new billing system and needed to clear out old invoices. Invoice due date: 12/22. Account suspended: 12/7. When I complained, they told me they would reinstate my account but I needed to pay my invoice right away. What a pathetic way to do business. I repeat -- stay away! |

| kasemodel, 19th 2006f November, 2006 |
These guys must be the ONLY host on the planet that has a support system that goes down often enough where the customers have to report it via email to their billing and sales email addresses.
When I stated with them 2 years ago, they were fine.
Now I tell everyone to STAY AWAY FROM EHOSTPROS.
Their support is HORRIBLE.
Their downtime is FREQUENT.

| I have been working with ehostpros for 2+ years now and it was ok until now, all my sites are down since yesterday and the support sucks, I'm starting to believe it's not a US based company it's suspicious they don't have a phone number |
|
| Tony, 24th 2006f August, 2006 |
| I won't be using them again. Customer support is a nightmare. I spent a month trying to get a response with their trouble ticket system. Finally, I just moved all 3 sites somewhere else. |
|
| Dominic, 28th 2006f July, 2006 |
| Terrible - I can't wait to move my hosting to another company. They continually are verrrrry slow in responding to very simple questions - that are important and affect our company as well as our clients. They clearly do not understand customer service and appear to lack in technical skills as well! |
|
| Ann, 25th 2006f July, 2006 |
| Worst company ever!! DO NOT do business with them. I can't believe they don't have a phone number and the dummy number they provide is just the same message all the time! I am going to report to Better Business Bureau. Someone needs to shut this crappy company down and pay everyone back for the wast of time and money!!!! |
|
| CL, 18th 2006f July, 2006 |
| Horrible! Horrible! Horrible! All I can say after spending hours on live chat with them.... something that would take about 10 minutes over the phone took almost 2 hours of waiting responding to inconclusive information. So much time wasted repeating what is needed in every way you can think of to explain it. Being questioned in the most unclear manner to help solve a problem that they cannot seem to get from very clear info. given. And the topper! When you are locked out of email for whatever reason (meaning you can't access your emails) they send you an email with the answer to your questions. Unbeliveable. You explain this to them on the helpdesk and they still continue to send you emails to get info to you. Hello? Guess what? That's what the problem is in the first place! Can't get my emails. It's a virtual catch 22. A nightmare. There is no one to call to get the info you need from them. Terrible! |
|
| VC, 27th 2006f June, 2006 |
| Closed my account after 3 years and have been waiting for a refund for 2+ months. I have sent many, many emails requesting my $$ but I always get the same lame response " Thank you for letting us know we will handle it asap" I wonder what asap means to them. Bad company to deal with! |

| ADAM, 29th 2006f April, 2006 |
Server downtime this week 200 minutes and counting so far.
Server downtime last week 84 minutes.
When I write to complain about all this down time the response is: everything is working fine we are able to access your website. Never do they acknowledge that they have had downtime or offer refund etc.
DO NOT USE EHOST PROS!!!!!!!!!! |

| Customer service seemed responsive which was a good sign at first. They wil however, attempt to extort you at every turn, using vague language and traps to squeeze every dime out of you and deny service until hidden fees are taken care of. I also suspect them of outright scamming as my payment would not go through until AFTER the deadline at which time they slapped a late fee down of $160 with no alternative given. At this point they became extremely vague and uncommunicative, they had convinced me to pay all my fees PROMISING me I would be reactivated, after payment they told me about the extra fee. I will be reporting them if I cannot resolve this tomorrow. |
|
| Erik, 08th 2006f March, 2006 |
| I have not had any problems with ehostpros. Very happy with what I got |
|
| Mauricio, 31st 2006f January, 2006 |
| I am looking to change. You can only check your email server 1 every 2 minutes or you get locked out for exceeding the amount of times you can check the server. This was not part or mentioned to me when I signed up. I have had all sorts of reliability issues. Don't waste your time. |
