Ive got 2 vps and a shared hosting with them and all 3 are down and have been down for roughly an hour. I opened a ticket already but it was closed with no reply......normal 123systems response it seems. |

yeah its just annoying the downtime I've had with this host. The guys that handle the tickets are very immature. like a while ago I had an issue loading my website. Like it wouldn't load at all. I had various monitoring services telling me its down. I open a ticket they said its fine no problem on there end and closed the ticket. it had huge load on it making it so it couldn't process any http request yet the uptime was fine so the techs shrugged it off as customer is a moron and pretty much told me that. |

Finally their server is up and I hope your sites also will be up. These days, most of the web host using this strategy closing ticket without given replies. However it puts bad impression on their customer support service and many customers go away only for poor support services. Although taking VPS and shared hosting from different web hosts helps in server down problems. |

That is pretty extreme.
Most support staff at least try and get a bit more information about your problem than that. Most techies know that whatever status is shown their end isnt always the same the customers end, their job is to find out why, not call you a moron. |

Calling you a moron is totally unacceptable  |

The way I raid it, they "treated" them like he was a moron and didn't actually say that they were... Now there isn't much of a difference between the two, but there is some difference  |

Hi,
We had issues earlier with this particular node and another one which resulted in some intermittent downtime. The downtime was however resolved as quickly as possible and I apologize if this upset you in any way. I will not make excuses for the downtime and I will admit it was an un-planned downtime on our behalf and if you require SLA please open a ticket and you will receive it.
As far as our staff mistreating you, If you have an ticket # or technician name in mind, please do e-mail me and I will see that it is handled. andrewm[at]123systems.net alternatively you can PM me here on the forums.
Thanks,
-Andrew |
