Does anyone else use Jumpline? The company I actually host with moved to them a few years back and claimed things would be better. The hosting itself is in fact better and we have some better options. However, after being with them for many years there were some things beyond my control and I asked them if I could pay my account one week late. They agreed and said they understand. But before the week was even up I began getting phone calls and they left a message, even got a nasty email from them that my account is about to be suspended. I was like, WHOA!
After they already agreed I could pay one week late they flip flop. It just totally pissed me off. I settled down after a bit but in my mind this will reflect on them for a long time. I have my own customers of course and never take this approach. I give them a couple of weeks and send out another friendly reminder. Then if they have not paid after one month I suspend the account and send out another reminder.
So I will be looking for another provider to purchase VPS accounts from. Maybe there are some out there that won't mind if a customer who always pays on time slips once after 4 years and needs an extra week. If Jumpline is going to be this anal I will begin the process of moving all my sites and customer sites to new VPS accounts with another provider.
