Andrei Neculau — Mon, 09 Jun 2008 11:41:14 +0000

Here I come today with an update. My previous webhost replied finally to my cancellation of service dated April 16!!!

Today - June 9:

Hello Andrei.

HP’s “invent” - killed

I was quite a happy owner of a HP Pavilion dv6054ea. I almost still am.

But HP’s support seems to fail even the tiniest hope that I have left.

This laptop was bought on 2006-08-19 at 9.33 GMT Since then it was repaired in August 2007 (replaced items: motherboard) and February 2008 (replaced items: motherboard, wireless, hdd). Thank goodness I extended my warranty.

Just yesterday, the LAN card seems to have stopped functioning properly.

Crystone’s 3rd-last

Andrei Neculau — Wed, 30 Apr 2008 12:42:08 +0000

Two weeks after I filed for service cancellation and a refund, I get “Please have patience!”

B.K.: Hejsan! Du talar med tekniska supporten, vad kan jag hjälpa till med?
B.K.: Vilket kundnummer / domännamn gäller detta?
Andrei Neculau: Hej Björn! Customer number: xxxxx (ScandicHosting), domain: andreineculau.com
Andrei Neculau: I have a ticket (id: OAT-yyyyyy) dated a month ago (April 2)
Andrei Neculau: The ticket is about a cancellation of service
Andrei Neculau: This is my 4th time I’m contacting you about it.
Andrei Neculau: Last time, on Friday, I was once again told: “somebody will contact you today!” yet nothing happened
Andrei Neculau: The cancellation form was both faxed and sent by email, but there was no acknowledgement of it so far, nor a money refund
B.K.: Please hold
B.K.: you will recieve a reply shortly - we will cancel the account, and you have no invoices that needs payment.
B.K.: Please ha patience and you will recieve a reply to this ticket today.

LATER UPDATE

And a couple of minutes later, I get this very innocent message, with no remark regarding the refund (not to mention the misspelling of my name, which so demeaning since I’m their customer):

Dear Anderi,

The cancellation fax has been received, so I have now marked your services as cancelled. I also double checked that the dns servers have been updated correctly, and they have.

Best regards,
Paul

Crystone’s last

I was telling you in the first post, that I’ve been having problems with my first web-hosting solution.

That solution was CrystOne. I had a previous account with them, and while there were some hiccups, problems were solved or managed (went about). It’s a Swedish company, and look up to Swedes in general.

But this time, they really blew it.
