Justhost.com Too go be true? Need webhost

Hello,

I build websites to earn a little pocket money and thought I had brilliant webhost in https://www.justhost.com. I signed up for the £47.52 every 24 month package which you can host unlimited sites with.

The offer of £47.52 every 24months is still available today, which has no mention what so ever of the higher renewal price.

Got an email yesterday with the renewal bill a massive £166, I'm now fighting with them, over very slow email to get it down.

But in the mean time does anyone know of any decent web hosting companies? That can host multiple sites under the one account.

  • I got round this problem by asking them to open a new account for me in US$, and giving me the promotional rate for the new account, by the way ;) In case anyone wishes to attempt to use this trick in the future.

    JustHost offer a fantastic service, with rather poor customer support. However, at that price, as long as you vaguely know what you're doing with your web hosting, I would argue it's worth it.

    Always interested in hearing about new deals for cameras/lenses, cheap flights/holidays, and video games. PM me if you have any I haven't heard of!

    JustHost are con artists.

    Fact.
    • Unlimited GB's of Space
    • Unlimited GB's of Transfer
    • Unlimited Domain Hosting
    • Unlimited E-Mail Accounts
    • Unlimited MySQL Databases

    None of the above are physically possible.

    I dont care if they bury fair usage get outs in the small print, the fact they advertise the impossible on that page like that shows they dont mind misleading and conning people.

    I would avoid out of principle.

    You dont want to your hosting to be in the hands of liars.
    [greenhighlight]but it matters when the most senior politician in the land is happy to use language and examples that are simply not true.

    The impact of this is to stigmatise people on benefits,
    and we should be deeply worried about that
