These guys are great, they upgraded my hosting at no charge because of a mistake I made on the signup form. Fantastic.

At first, catalog was fine. However, they eventually began automatically renewing my membership and charging my credit card without my permission! I attempted many times to cancel this service and have received no real live response. Recently I received the same e-mail saying that I am set up for automatic renewal in the middle of next month and there seems to be nothing I can do about this. How can this website commandeer your credit card and provide no means of opting out. This is outrageous.

I was with Catalog for about 4 years and now they don't have any live support, which in the past was worth the extra money to have. Now I'm switching to a new company that give 200MB of space, 4GB of transfer, Free Scripts, and tons of extras all for under $35/yr.

Changed domain registration from catalog to another company. Hosting was to stay at catalog. They removed my site and then wanted $35 to restore my site. No response for days from support dept, email for business has been down, as well as site for days.

I don't recommend this service if you're looking to host a small, or low traffic site, which is what I had. I've had occasional problems with my site going down, the worst was for over a week. Also, their site isn't very helpful, though their customer service is good enough. My main complaint was that they advertised "free web hosting forever" and then proceeded to add an additional $20 yearly fee a few months after I signed up. Pay a little more for a decent webhosting service, seriously. The reason I'm on this site is to find a place to transfer to (after the two years I paid for up front runs out)
