HostUltra Warning/Question
Good point, Pixikel. Fortunately, my emails are rarely size intensive. When I do hoard (and I do hoard) I store it on my laptop, not so much the server. I think I lucked out there, because I could have lost about four years of emails. :/- Points: 1

HostUltra Warning/Question
Me too :( Hey guys, I'm another Host Ultra victim. Pretty much the same story... signed up in 2004, because it was affordable. The free trial site worked well enough that I signed up for a paid site as well as a unique domain, which I have always thought I "owned." I used my domain...- Points: 1

HostUltra Warning/Question
kathyb, Who you buy the name from will depend at least partly on where your domain ends up after it expires. If the best case scenario happens, and eNom releases the name completely, then it's up for grabs, and you can pick it up inexpensively through pretty much any hosting company, or even...- Points: 0

HostUltra Warning/Question
Hi, kathyb. Pleased to make your acquaintance, but at the same time I'm sad to see someone else join the group. As you may have gathered from other posts, Host Ultra seems fond of using a registrar called eNom. Your domain was probably registered to Host Ultra through eNom. (Check your...- Points: 0

HostUltra Warning/Question
I was likewise impressed when I tried SiteGround's live chat last night. It was almost as quick for me, and the chap on the other end seemed personable and competent. In searching a few forums, it seems SiteGround's tech support might be a little lacking. They're quick to respond, but not...- Points: 0

HostUltra Warning/Question
I'm using Bluehost with a couple of other domains. While Bluehost has impressed me in many ways, particularly its fantastic customer service, the one feature about Host Ultra that kept me around for so long was having a "catch-all" email account. Bluehost does not offer the "catch-all"...- Points: 0

HostUltra Warning/Question
Update on things from my end: I posted my situation on one of those free "ask a lawyer" websites. Even realizing that those sites are by nature designed to encourage litigation, the responses were optimistic. One reply suggested a UDRP arbitration. Having already looked that up, it looks...- Points: 0

HostUltra Warning/Question
Asking cPanel if we could fund Host Ultra's license is an interesting idea. That might buy some folks some time to back things up. It doesn't help me personally, as I had hardly anything there as far as a website goes; I used my domain and Host Ultra almost entirely for email, and that's all...- Points: 0

HostUltra Warning/Question
That's a good question. I've been looking there myself. It would seem to fall under "Domain Name Dispute Resolution" except everything I find at ICANN on that refers to trademark infringement. Host Ultra isn't infringing on a trademark, it just registered my domain under its name. It's...- Points: 0

HostUltra Warning/Question
For what it's worth, I just chatted with a rep at "another" hosting company, one that I consider very reputable, and have been with in a different context since 2006. She says "complain to ICANN!"- Points: 0

Odd, main site is down, secure-dot-hostultra-dot-com redirects to the main site, but my specific trouble ticket link still works, as does the link which tells me the server is DOWN.- Points: 0
