Fasthosts - shocking

Not that they care.

The most messed up UK 'hosts'.

Beware. "Call back at 9:00am"...

And they speak to you like *you're* the twat.

Shocking.

Edit: Toned down a little.

Actually it's the 'talking down' to you that p*sses me off. I'd be happy to pay them a blanket fee of £9.95 per year to encompass all their crass stupidity.

Are there any companies in any market that offer a decent support service? I'm seriously pissed off with sky at the moment. Who do you complain to when the complaints department are f*$%ing useless!

Perhaps it would be quicker for you to tell us which companies DONT annoy you?

Reg StenderSays.co.uk and provide a public service.

i would agree amazons customer service is great.

play.com / ebuyer.co.uk / 7digital.com also have outstanding customer service

although i have to say lots of places dont (and it seems to have got worse with the recession)

Suprised about fasthosts it was recommended to me by a good friend.. I've been with them about a month or two now and no complaints - they even rang me to make sure i was happy with the service so far, and said if there was *any* problems at all to call/contact them!! -this was for their reseller hosting service mind.
