      Thanks, I plan to do the same

      Which plan are you going to use? What host are ya coming from? I'm going on the 2,000MB/50GB plan, as it REALLY suits me. Same bandwidth as my previous host, but with four times as much storage, and I am loving the fact they are going to give me a custom billing system and such. Always good to have a host that interacts with it's users, and helps them out

        Yeah he seems really cool, we bs'd for a while over email last night; always good to get to know who you're dealing with.

        I'm using the same plan...and was formerly using smaller.net.

          I have to use phpMyAdmin to do it But I should be able to do it myself. I just PMed him over the vb-host forum, asking for a custom form (as I am getting a custom billing plan) and asking for the information I will need

            Yeah I only have ftp access to my old host and they're really making this difficult process...I finally had to call the guy who runs things to do it himself because the guy who he told me to ask to do it wouldn't do it. I can't wait till this is all done, my board is functioning and I don't have to put up with this crap anymore.

                Well just ask some of our customers, We have plenty on here. Also we don't use vB.com to boost our sales, We also use the product. Infact to the point that our customer forums even has Lesane's store hack, Traffix's vB Trader and the Arcade with store intergration.. How many hosts you know that can say that

                      You would be wrong. And honestly I wish you wouldnt give that POS forum any advertisement.

                          *shrug* they ARE a host of theirs, I have opinions further but I really dont want to get another thread closed, so I will ask an admin if it is permissable for me to post.

                            It looks like I won't be getting any hosting from vb-host.com if that is the case.

                              Wrong how? He may have been a customer at one time considering that site is pointing to the old datacenter, and from what I know everyone was moved into the new datacenter, therefore if he was switched his IP would have changed.

                              I've been with a host who made me wait on them to get answers to questions I need, with TFH my questions are answered within the hour for the most part, the service is good too. Don't tell people who they can and cannot advertise, kthx.
