Well, I work for a web design company and I've been told that if I ever need any hosting..

 

I don't know if they'll host a forum or not, I would have to ask, and haven't been there long, but this time next year providing everything works out and I'm still there, etc.

He's also offered to pay on behalf of any students here too, which is nice! :)

Ok, I'm going to send this to the billing and technical contacts - unless anyone offers improvements / better wording?

Hi there,

With our hosting subscription up for renewal, we have been looking at the best hosting option for us.

We are generally happy with EuroVPS, but our webmaster has said that the Plesk license must be renewed, as it has expired and degraded to a licence that is too restrictive.

If you can ensure that the Plesk licence is renewed, we will be happy to stay with EuroVPS for another year, otherwise we will have to look for an alternative hosting provider.

Thank you,

Peter Boughton

Change "degraded to a too restrictive license" to "degraded to a license that is too restrictive".

Otherwise, looks fine!

Good suggestion. Fixed it to licence too. :)

I was planning to send it this morning, but since Teh appeared to be down last night* I'll give it until about lunchtime, incase anyone else pops in with a suggestion. :)


*(well, I could get to the server, but in light mode and nobody was posting, and my connection was too painfully slow to want to try)

I'd be tempted to spell 'alternative' correctly.

Also '...we have been looking at the best hosting option for us...'.

Looks fine now, haven't they already taken the money from your bank though?

Yeah, they charged my card, but our current term is not up until August.

Will get it reversed if necessary though.

Got a stupid automated reply to the emails, and have also sent in a ticket.

They've fixed it, sort of. Looks like they've given us a 2 month license. Hope they plan on renewing it!

Hello Peter,

 

I haven't heard from you, is this still being sorted?
