This is by far the worst hosting provider I have ever used.
They used to be decent, but since new ownership they are deplorable.
Their customer service is apparently staffed with idiots who are unable to answer the simplest of questions.
The technical staff can't seem to figure out how to move a website that uses a database to new server,much less figure out the myriad of other problems they have created since taking over.
And their managament apparently does not care if customers are unhappy.(they have instructed their support staff to not give out managers name or direct extensions for people trying to get their website problems resolved..wonder why?)
After over 30 phone calls/emails/on-line support chats our problems have not been solved.
It may be cheap but unless you enjoy giving yourself migraines, find another provider.
I guess I have learned you get what you pay for.
We are finding a new hosting provider ASAP.

After being bought out, Readyhosting has become completely inept. Support tickets are initially answered by people with no technical knowledge, then "escalated" to a 2-4 business day turnaround time for a real tech. After several problems, most of which went unresolved, I have no choice but to leave. My recommendation is LOOK ELSWHERE.

Wait times for tech support via phone and chat are extremely long. It's very difficult to get tech support to resolve any issues. Their response is always, "We'll call you when the problem is fixed." I have yet to get a call from them. What's more, my site frequently does down.

These people commit grand larceny every pay day. I have been a user for 4 years and have finallly had it.
Constant email outages - 4 days in November in a row - and now a denial of service attack, all accompanied by emails reassuring me that All Will Be Well Soon.
This is the sort of business that should be out of business. It's a cruel joke that they call it Readyhsoting as it seldom is.
Avoid at all costs.

We have used Readyhosting and 1and1. Readyhosting has frequent downtimes - and their support/trouble resolution is horrible.
1and1 has been good about returning emails and cancelling domain request on time.

So sick of this webhost. I've had 4 accounts with them for 5 years and my email goes up and down like a yo-yo. I've lost all my data so many times, yet this always happened in the midst of my billing cycle so it cost too much to hop to another web host. Finally, I've had enough. They lost all email on all my accounts, and their only response when I called was basically tough sh#t, download your email right away. Well, that's not what I pay them for. I pay them for backups and an uptime guarantee. They won't honor that guarantee and they won't do anything to attempt to restore my email. It's a darn good thing our customer service email is with another host, or we'd be toast. Don't use readyhosting for anything if you want to keep your data on servers, like you pay them to.

I wanted an inexpenisive way to have a number of web mail accounts as well as a place for a small website.
After losing all email in all my email accounts (the second or third time) when they had massive hardware failure, I was told by tech support their webmail server was not made to store mail, that i should have been popping my mail and that i should have learned my lesson by now.
And I have. I am finding a new host as soon as possible. If you want to constantly worry about your data and manage everything on your own and maintain scrupulous backups of everything, they might be worth the low cost. But if you don't wanted to fuss that much, go find someone else.

i've been a client of readyhosting for many years, with around 40 accounts currently. they have had uptime issues, as well as hacking issues (don't get me started), but the latest is just unacceptable... email has been for FOUR DAYS!!! i am losing clients over this fiasco. fortunately, i've been trying other hosts, so i've moved several already. i've had great luck/service/uptime with intelnetics.com so far. i plan on moving all of my accounts over there. here's a jpg of readyhosting's current site status!:

look elsewhere if you want reliability.
