| They never call, they never write. My site is down and a week later I get no response from them. For all I know terroists are holding them hostage at their office, but I would think they'd at least send me the list of demands, since I want to talk to someone over there. Definitely avoid dealing with these folks. |

I too had a positive experience originally. Now, I would caution anyone from doing business with "stayhostage.com".
I had two domain names due to expire shortly, one for a non-profit charity, and another for a friend. When the charity organization decided that that wanted to make payments directly, control of that domain was usurped without notification or consent. This is really OK, since they are the rightful owner of the domain and I was interested in handing off these renewal duties anyhow...
Here is where it gets ridiculous-
All I wanted, was to renew the remaining domain name.
1. My account becomes inaccessible.
2. I wanted to verify I had the correct password, but password recovery did not send a response...hmmmm.
3. Several calls to support yield not even a return phone call.
4. Several emails to admin@... yield no response.
Now, the website associated with the domain name is down because the domain name is now in a "renewal-hold" state, I NEED to renew to get it back up but can't get a hold of anyone.
5... 5 days later, (3 business days) I'm frantic and I finally get a response. It is from the one and only support person there, who happens to also be the director, and it states:
"Please submit a ticket to support@stayhosted.com with the details of your query so that we may address it for you."
This person could not just handle the STACK of requests that I made prior, He required me to resubmit it to another address.
By this time, I had already contacted the parent company, Directi (very helpful btw...), lodged a complaint, re-enabled my account which was confirmed to have been locked out, and initiated transfer to a more responsive and reputable registrar(GoDaddy, who you can actually speak with inside of 10 minutes of calling).
Now that I have lodged a complaint upstream, the responsiveness increases exponentially. Here is the start of his response to me-
"Before you start ranting and whining to Directi..."
very professional huh?
The transfer was already initiated, and was scheduled to take place a few days later.
In the mean time, I continue to get several letters attempting to extort money from me. In fact again, this domain name was now usurped by this same person, registering his name as every contact and taking ownership personally.
I continue to get email urging me to pay for another year of renewal at a "reduced" price, before I can discontinue business with Stayhosted. absurd!
It is RIDICULOUS!
He continued to contend that even though I PREPAID for 1year of registration, received services for 1year exactly, had my services TURNED OFF at that point, that somehow I still owed them something??? that 1 years dues were required BEFORE I could move elsewhere immediately.
Well, he was wrong. Transfer to GoDaddy completed this morning.
Don't let your domain be held hostage by these people. stay away from StayHosted! |

When I first signed on, in 2005, they were wonderful. Quick to respond, helpful, etc. For me they still work, as I have grown, and need less help now. Their features haven't changed, and they still remain inexpensive.
However, that said, I would no longer recommend them to new customers. I tried to get a friend on them and it was a nightmare.
They charged her account, canceled her invoice and labeled her account as a Fraud.
They then proceeded to ignore support tickets on the matter, choseing rather to DELETE her support tickets without response.
When she started calling and complaining, the closed her account without a single word.
It seems I got in early. Now the company is run by a set of childish morons.
They don't even have someone manning the support lines in the US. They just let it ring until the answering machine picks up and says someone is "On the Phone."
It's ridiculous!
I will stay with them as they are cheep and I don't need the support any longer. But if you are looking for a new host, don't StayHosted! |
