Activation Email No Help

Hey there. I'm setting up an account for a client of mine, and I have no idea where to set the nameservers for the domain I purchased for him. I've submitted a ticket to Surpass, but I haven't heard back from them yet.

The email Surpass sent me was supposed to include some stuff like cpanel login, IP and actual nameservers, right? Here's what I got:

Quote:
Hello,

On {{order_date}}, a new client {{active_server_name}}

Here are the details:

Client: xxxxxxxxxxx
Domain: xxxxxxxxx.com
Package Ordered: Pro
Addons Ordered:
- No account addons ordered

Payment Type: 2Checkout
Total Due Today: 14.99

This order will rebill at a rate of 14.99 monthly

Thank you.

Your AutoPilot

That's it! Does anyone have an idea of what I can do to find out this info on my own? The domain I purchased is worthless until I can tie it to my Surpass hosting.

Thanks,

Dave Gallagher

Sheesh! Looks like they're rewriting their order emails, and someone didn't update something correctly.

Actually, this is NOT your activation message. Activation is usually complete 24 hours after you buy your account. That message will include your account, initial password, and dns information.

Wow the AutoPilot is sending out mystery emails. That's not right.. you should have got this instead:

Hello,

We have received your hosting order and will be processing it shortly once you complete the payment.

The details of this order are below:

First Name: {{first_name}} {{last_name}}
Email: {{email_address}}
How did you find us: {{how_found}}
Domain Name: {{domain_name}}
Package Ordered: {{hosting_package}}
{{addons}}
Payment Gateway: {{payment_gateway}}
{{coupon}}
Total Due Today: {{total_due_today}}

This order will rebill at a rate of {{total_reoccur}} {{payment_term}}

As soon as you complete payment, your account will be activated.

Regards,
Surpass Hosting
salessurpasshosting.com

This message was generated on: {{generate_date}}



And then when your account is activated, you get the long welcome email.. I will see that you get that right now..

I just realized that (depending on how it's read) my last post might come off as jerky. So sincerely, thanks for your help!
