Description - Services Provided

I got vodahost back when their servers were fresh, support was a little less feisty, and the TOS did not require you to pay a yearly subscription even if you did not ask them to. Since then alot has changed, Customer Service has gone down the drain, linking me to sites with profanities which are all aimed at the reader. I am sorry to have to share such wo

If one posts a slightly concerning post in their forum, eg. the fact that their server CPU status is critical and PHP won't run, the person involved in the posting gets a minimum of a 20-year ban, plus a free phone call, thats right, one that they would not give you prior to now, even on request.

Dont ask too many questions, Member BigBoyUK

I have been with VodaHost for less than a week and I have just been banned from their support forum for asking too many questions!!! I have not been rude, used bad language or used the forum for anything other than general support. So I can only assume that I am the victim of some kind of meglamania. I have spent 4 days trying to configure my first site with them only to find myself with no further support. Luckily there are plenty more hosts waiting to take my money who have a more logical approach to customer service. If you dont need support you will probably get on well with VH as it is cheap and packed with great features and I really like their Blue Voda software. Just dont ask too many questions or else.
