C I Host Responds to Robbery Reports

November 6, 2007 by Cotton Rohrscheib 1 Comment

I blogged on this topic yesterday because I thought that it was probably one of the most bizarre things I had heard in a long time, if ever before, in the hosting industry.  I was first alerted when I saw some angry posts on the message boards out there from CI Host Customers.  Thank goodness we don’t have to worry about a situation like this with our datacenter!!!  Thank Goodness!  This is nonsense!  I am not for sure who is really to blame, and thank goodness it’s not my job to figure that out but my goodness, this is outside of my realm of understanding…

Here is an excerpt from an article on the WHIR where they (CI Host) responds to all that has been going on:

“Bottom line is, no-one likes to hear what we have to say,” says Eckles. “We can offer services or discounts, but people want money. They want compensation. But we don’t have money to give them. We’re just as victimized as our customers. They came to us because we offered them cheap colocation services. They think because we’re a corporation we have lots of money, but we make our money through volume. If we had the money, we would give it to them.”
