If you're interested, here is what they did to Surpass. We don't want to start a battle, but you sure want to warn your friends - and enemies!

CIHost is infamous for their tactics and they're sue happy. Beware they sue people who post negative stuff about them in forums. More info here:

i know one who comes in every so often to where i work she says some major hip problem so she caries her cruch every where ( doesnt really put it on the ground)

if no one is looking she just puts it under her arm pit and just walks away

She can run, jump and alot more when no one is looking but when people are looking she cant do anything

This makes for an evening of reading. Better clean my glasses!

Maybe we should post some of the ip's as we discover them and make life easier for all of us. Just a thought.

I just went to cihost site. Wow!! I can't believe those prices - $25.00/month for private nameserver, setup more tha the monthly fees. Buyer beware - signup incentives they flash so fast, you have to stay awhile to see your selection and $800 free software, which is included in most control panels anyways. And a data center that rocks. Must be from all the refugees (as they call them in their pop-up) ready to abandon ship for a new, more stable island.

And bassdaddy, whoever said you are pricey, they should check this one out. People get what they pay for, and in ci's case, no offense to your friend 'I'm Sleepy', they seem to prey on peoples weakness'. :rant:

I could go on, but I will bite my tongue. I don't want to be the next on the 'sue' list.

She's over 60 and wanted the digital camera... I think the other choice was a round-trip plane ticket! :shakehead

Well at least she picked the camera Has she contacted the creditcard company and given them copies of all the corresponance between ci and the two of you? At least that might get their attention.

I cancelled my account with another host last week and still havent heard anything. But they have such sloppy accounting practices, I haven't paid for more that my first month and that was 8 months ago.
