Worst hosting company ever

They corrupted the database on a migration; it took them 2 moths the figure out why the site would not work. I had to move to a different host and they were not abele the get the domain to conferrer to the new host. I spent over 20 hour on hold on the phone trying to get it worked out.

Biggest Pro: There is none!!!!

Don't even try!

I was with them for a few years--so many issues every week!

Finally switched to NGHosting; it took me forever to get them to switch my nameservers. I had to call and call and call! I also tried to close my account, by phone, email, submitting a ticket, chat. I have records of some of these attempts. Each time I would assume my account was closed until I would get some email from them addressing me as their customer. And now, almost two years since I switched, they are trying to charge my credit card with another two year service! Most disgusting!

Biggest Pro: none whatso ever
Biggest Con: Fraud.

they are crap

I used ipower for about a year, and in that year they lost my site three times. They charged me monthly even though I paid a year in advance.

Now a year after I left them I checked my debit card online and I see a $75 charge....crooks

I reported them to mastercard and filed a fraud report w/ police.

Avoid them like you would avoid kissing a person with aids

Biggest Con: they are crooks!!!!

iPower NO

I can't get to the control panel due to gateway issue. This is the last straw. Read the previous reviews and I have had the issue. They use to be pretty good, but those days are over and so am I!

Biggest Pro: none
Biggest Con: nick and dime, access, customer service,

Used to be a good company but are terrible now

Today I finally cancelled my account with Ipowerweb after 6 years with them. They have gone from a really good web hosting service to being terrible at every aspect of their service. The customer support is terrible and they try to nickle and dime you for every penny they can get. I should have switched a couple years ago but out of dumb loyalty I stayed only to be disappointed again and again. Once they get their hooks in you they make it as difficult as possible to transfer your domain to another company. I can't say enough about researching completely before signing up with a webhost. I fee like a bad nightmare has finally ended!

Ipowerweb is a joke

I have been with them for 5 years now, and 2 weeks ago I renewed my plan. This morning I was banned for no reason. I called them and waited for 3 hours to talk to them. They couldn't tell me why my account was banned and then disconnected me. I am done with ipowerweb and going back to dot5hosting.

Biggest Con: poor support

Long term customer now looking for a new host.

I've have used iPowerWeb for my websites since 2004. Until this year they were my hosting company of choice for new clients -- no longer.

In January 2008 they "upgraded" their servers, and their reliabilty has been terrible ever since.

On any given day I have at least one website down because of iPowerWeb "updates", "service", or known problems. A tech call means at least an hour on hold, followed by a standard scrips of Q&A where I have to demonstrate that I have a real problem, and finally a talk with someone who speaks poor English. Generally the result of tech calls is the message ""we are aware of the problem and are working to restore service".

The frustration is unbearable. I'm moving all of my website clients to another hosting company, rather than try to continue trying to adapt to iPowerWeb's problems and upgrades.

I will never again use iPowerWeb for a website host, and strongly recommend to all my contacts to look elsewhere for a hosting company.

Biggest Con: Terribly slow, terribly unreliable, terrible customer service

Website totally gone...

We were with Ipower's Ipage service for quite a while. They had an ebay integration plan that they never really got working. Not a huge deal. Then come to find that nobody could reach our website...it was gone. A call to Ipower confirmed that they changed to a "new plaform" and that the Ipage site we had with them "was not compatible with the new platform", and we would have to recreate our site. They said they sent an email, but we didn't receive one. So I just have to say Thanks Ipower for wiping our site from the face of the web. Nice job. NOT! I have many more colorful words I would like to use, but not here. It's now back to the drawing board with a new hosting company and recreating the site. Not going to use a template service again either. STAY AWAY!

Biggest Pro: they were decent when they didn't delete our site.
Biggest Con: Deleted our site without warning.

Terrible Technical Support - Stay away

iPowerWeb "updated" about 3 months ago at which point our website would no longer display. After numerous attemps (i.e. at least 10!) and being told it will be up in 24-48 hours, nothing happened. The last straw was the last call at which point our acount seemed to have disappeared into oblivion and we no longer existed. Stay away!!!

Stay away from Ipoweweb

Ipowerweb used to be the tops in my book but now they have become too big and have no idea of customer service. The wai time to have something simple fixed became a week. Yes, 7 days! They threw up enough roadblcks to the service that it had become too big of a chore to explain my isses. Simple issues at that! Do yourself a favor, steer clear of these clowns, I spent over 8 years with them and I miss the good times with them but those days are over!

Biggest Pro: Price
Biggest Con: No timely customer service
