IX Web Hosting Warning

Unreliable, Insecure, Incompetant Web Hosting

IX Web Hosting’s Reviews Feb. 2009

Yellow, 28th 2009f February, 2009
Glad I found this site, was minutes away from purchasing a buisness account. I will now look elsewhere.

I think that the likes of Yahoo, Hotmail, Live Mail and Gmail are blocking Emails being sent from web sites hosted by ix web hosting. I had to create a Yahoo email account to snd emails to all the above, because if I send emails from my website email address, no one using a server based email provider such as the one mentioned above, never get the emails I send.. Very unprofessional, I have contacted ix 5 times now, but they just give me a boiler plate answer, there is nothing wrong.

Hello, What I suggest is that everyone who is having problems with your server, click on their google ads… show them what it feels like when tons of people click on your ads and the server is down. ixwebhosting.com has really bad problems with their servers. My company already moved off of ixwebshosting.com because of the constant server problems we have experienced.
 
Mike, 26th 2009f February, 2009
Ixwebhosting.com servers are really poorly run and are often down and on error. We made a mistake trusting ixwebhosting.com. Our servers has been down almost 6 times per hour, each outage lasting about 2 minutes.
 
tommy, 25th 2009f February, 2009
I would like to start a web hosting company and take all your money and then shut down all the servers!!!!! mu ahahahahahahaha
 
elawcase@gmail.com, 24th 2009f February, 2009
Hello, we continue to receive complaints about ixwebhosting.com. Should we get enough support, we can launch a class action law suit against ixwebhosting for advertising what is not true of their uptime. You can contact us at elawcase@gmail.com.
 
floristwide.com, 24th 2009f February, 2009
Hello, I cannot believe how terrible the servers are at ixwebhosting.com. It goes down everyday at least 5-10 times. Probably more than that but we catch about 5-10 times a day the outtages. We moved most all our important sites off the server NS13.ixwebhosting.com and NS14.ixwebhosting.com. However, some of our sites are still hosted on this server. You can check it to to see the performance. Our site is www.Floristwide.com and you can test it using alertra.com. You will see that every so often the server will go on error. It’s really frustrating and Ixwebhosting always blames it on other shared hosting sites which is not the solution we want to hear. I have no idea why ixwebhosting is rated high on this website but probably because they pay or promote this ranking. Really frustrating!

Recieved an email today from a client saying that if you use the search option it shows an error, spent ages trying to find what the problem was, I then compared the Database Tables with the original, and TWO tables were missing, this site has not been updated for well over 5 months, and it was working fine at least up until 2 weeks ago.
ix wehosting denies they had anything to do with the sudden deletion of the tables.
 
Ian, 22nd 2009f February, 2009
3 days.. and the server is down…
 
Brice, 20th 2009f February, 2009
I have 3 websites hosted on ixwebhosting and I have had nothing but problems. They upgrade things and break you and do nothing to fix it. Their support is a joke, sometimes taking days to get problems resolved. I am actively looking for another provider. IXWebhosting is awful.
 
David, 19th 2009f February, 2009
A note about the .htaccess injection. When it happened (Early December of last year), ixwebhosting sent this email to clients:”This is a self replicating virus which is found by visiting well-known search engines. When you click on any link it may redirect you to a fake Anti-Virus 2009 website which appears to scan your system and then asks you to download the software. Once downloaded and installed it begins displaying pop ups on your desktop. At this time it collects your FTP user name and password from your own computer and uses that information to upload an exploited file named “.htaccess” to your website. Any visitors to your website will then be redirected to the fake anti-virus website.”This is not true. It’s an insult to say that I (an experienced internet user) actually downloaded the fake anti-virus program. Access to our FTP accounts was not obtained from our (the clients’) own computers, it was a security flaw on the server end. Just today ixwebhosting sent an e-mail saying that they changed everyone’s ftp passwords, obviously to cover for some more security flaws on their end.
 
Walter, 17th 2009f February, 2009
Very slow. vulnerable, crappy webhosting with 10-15 seconds page generation time.
 
David, 17th 2009f February, 2009
I have been with ixwebhosting for about a year and a half. I have had no problems except for the one time when my site (and possibly all the other ixwebhosting sites) were hacked. The .htaccess file was replaced with this:RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} .*oogle.*$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} .*aol.*$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} .*msn.*$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} .*altavista.*$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} .*ask.*$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} .*ahoo.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule .* http://87.248.180.89/topic.html?s=s [R,L]It didn’t hurt me because my website is private and not indexed by search engines anyway, but this is very bad. I will not be staying with ixwebhosting for the long-term. I have had no problems with tech-support though, I’ve used the live chat two or three times (with trivial issues mind you) and have not had to wait more than 10 minutes.
 
Chris from BBTA, 16th 2009f February, 2009
I see IXwebhosting’s response below… do not contact us it wastes our time… WOW. What a statement. So your customers inquiring about the status of their server that is down and they are most likely losing money and customers is a waste of your time. The is just plain out crap. If you dont care about your customer’s, customer’s then you dont care about your Customer.I have been with IX for over two years, and have a multitude of websites with them. Everything was great for the first, 10 months or so. Then they moved locations, SQL servers go down, or are extremely slow to respond, dns errors, internal server errors, failure to connect to web server errors, errors errors, down, slow, error, down slow. Catch my drift.I am in the market for a new host as I have finally grown tired of daily support tickets, phone calls and chats. Someone point me in a good direction and not godaddy i dont like them either. I am looking at dreamhost but not sure yet.
 
Laura T, 15th 2009f February, 2009
Support is so frustrating, and useless, 3 days I used the chat support to ask why my pages were suddenly getting a syntac error, I had not made any changes for months, I was told to submit a ticket, so I submitted a ticket 2 days ago, FINALLY today after 2 days I get a response telling me they had recieved my ticket and that it was forwarded to the correct department !!!!??? WHAT!!??
This is the final straw, after reading all the below complaints, and also all the stuff on www.ixwebhostwarning.wordpress.com
I am moving my sites away from ixwebhosting
 
Rob Stallard, 15th 2009f February, 2009
The actual service is adequate. However, they fail to deliver on technical support. On two occasions I have waited 2 days for just an initial response. They are unhelpful on chat – they just say the problem will be looked into soon – and don’t do so. Support is a network of Russians as far as I can tell. Unapologetic and unhelpful and very frustrating as there is no way a crucial techincal issue will get looked into in a timely fashion.
 
Chris, 13th 2009f February, 2009
My SQL servers are down yet again. If you talk to the online chat they will tell you nothing is wrong. IF you submit a ticket they give you a BS response. However I just called them and was honestly told (Spoke to a real tech support person not “Jeff” in freaking Pakistan) that they had a hardware failure last night and they dont know when it will be back up. And that 501 has had some issues here lately but with the replacement of the hardware this should be fixed. We will see where this leads. I dont want to change host because it is a HUGE PITA. But if I have to I will.
 
Ex IX customer, 12th 2009f February, 2009
Could somebody please hack the .htaccess file on www.ixwebhsoting.com. Please set it to divert everyone to a decent hosting company!Funny how their own site never gets hacked! Please, please, please… Somebody please hack their site to see how they like it.
 
Wallace, 12th 2009f February, 2009
All site is down now for ixwebhosting.You try go their website which down now.My website is down also.After see all your comment,i am worry now.Don’t know when will be up again.
 
Shira, 12th 2009f February, 2009
We’ve spent the last week uploading and creating database on our new IXWebhosting account. BIG MISTAKE. All of the database sites give random server connection errors more often than not and the server service in general is extremely unreliable. The online “Tech support” chat is a complete joke. Not once have they been able to resolve the problems we’ve communicated, and we have to chat them about 5 times a day. We’re closing our account today before serious damage is done.
 
 
 
Pete, 11th 2009f February, 2009
AVOID like the plague!!!
Every one of their web servers have been hacked in the last few months. If you have any sites with them, it’s just a matter of time before your code is injected with viruses and phishing pages or completely diverted to a scam web site.
If you have an account with them, do what I did… Get the hell out now before all of your sites are blacklisted.
Try www.a2hosting.com. They cost a bit more but you get what you pay for.
 
Chris, 10th 2009f February, 2009
From all the research I have done over the past months, i have never seen so many angry people and complaints as the ones complaining about ixwebhosting
IX is a lost case.. AVOID
 
FUCK YOU IX, 10th 2009f February, 2009
I’m so sick of the feeble excuses ix web hosting come up with.
I the past week I have called them at least 3 times everyday because so far my sites have been down on average 3 hours a day. Everytime I get to hear how sorry they are, and that the issue will be fixed within 20 minutes!!
It really is time to get a class case together and sue IX for compensation.
 
Erik, 09th 2009f February, 2009
All 12+ of my domains were down much of Feb. 7, 2009, and since at least the afternoon of Feb. 8, 2009, they’ve been down again, and all of my sites’ files are totally gone. They’re “still working” as of this morning, Feb. 9, 2009, but they cannot say much more. Time to move on.
 
Milano, 09th 2009f February, 2009
Today I got a call from a friend telling me my sites contained a virus, I googled my site, and when I clicked on it my Anti Virus blocked it with a warning, I then checked all my other sites and they all contain the same script. I called ix, had to wait 25 minutes, probably a lot of customers with the same problem.. I was told very bluntly that it was a well known issue with WordPress, I have been using wordpress now for 4 years, and always use the latest stable version, I contacted WordPress, and they assure me that there are no known issues with WordPress. I then called ix again, and this time they blamed my computer, saying it is infected, and that I uploaded the virus.
IX is an absolute nightmare, and I am moving all my sites away from them, and I will file a complaint with the BBB
 
Herman, 08th 2009f February, 2009
Last week I had a phone call from a customer why I had not sent them an Email, I reassured them that I had, and that I would resend it 2 days later completely pissed off because they still never got the Email. So I sent an Email to one of my own Email accounts.. I never got it, so I tried sending it to another 5 Email accounts.. out of those 5 emails I got just ONE, but it took TWO days to reach me. I contacted support on the chat, and he told me there was a backlog of mail because of a “Spam Filter” , he told me to create a Ticket which I did, I sent a ticket on Friday morning, and Today ( Monday) I still have not had a response.
So to break it down, ( this is what I know for certain) I have sent 8 emails, and only recieved ONE 2 days after I sent it!
This is absolutely absurd, now I do not know how many people I have sent Emails to that never got them.
Do yourself a big favour and stay away from ix web hosting, they just have not got a clue, or they just don’t care, or both.
 
elawcase@gmail.com, 07th 2009f February, 2009
Anyone interested to sue ixwebhosting.com due to their bad servers and not providing what they promise, please contact us at elawcase@gmail.com.I have tried many hosting companies and ixwebhosting is amongst the worst. Their server will go down frequently. We received so many complaints from our own customers that the website is not working. We get this just about everyday. And two days ago ixwebhosting.com servers were down for 4 hours. Yesterday it was down 3 hours. Today it is down now for over 2 hours and we are still waiting for the servers to work. We are hosted on NS13, NS14. This has got to be the most frustrating experience in our 9 years in ecommerce. We made the fatal error trusting to host our site with ixwebhosting.com. The first two months were okay but then after it went downhill. I think maybe they work really hard during the trial period so you cannot refund the month. I’m stuck now with a long period of webhosting plan. They won’t refund either and they will not provide you a good working server.
 
Matt, 07th 2009f February, 2009
Hello, THE SERVER IS DOWN AGAIN. Two days ago it was down for 4 hours then yesterday 3 hours.. now today it has been down for over 2 hours. I need a working server. ixwebhosting has the worst servers possible. So much downtime. They wont refund you either.
 
Help!, 05th 2009f February, 2009
Hello, can someone tell me what to do? ixwebhosting.com server has been down again and again. This is at least the 10th time in the last 12 hours. What is happening? This is our 5th complaint with them but they are not fixing it. It will maybe work for 1 hour then go back on error.
 
Richard, 05th 2009f February, 2009
Oh my GOD! The server is down again.. I’m going to move my websites ASAP.. ixwebhosting really sucks… we have to complain every day. I’m sure they have so many compplaints. Their servers are maybe just poorly managed. But it’s bad.
 
Richard, 05th 2009f February, 2009
Hello, I just checked the server. It is now working but after 4 hours of downtime. This is really unprofessional hosting. It’s cheap but you really get worse than what you pay for. Ixwebhosting.com is cheap and bad. I would rename it ixwebrobbing.com
 
John – HELP SERVER DOWN, 05th 2009f February, 2009
Hello I cannot believe how many times the server is down.. It has been down for over 1 hour and now they are telling us another hour. This server really sucks.. here’s the chat logs.Lesya Geychenko: Sorry, we really experience some problems on our server, but I want to ensure you that this is temporary and we will fix them as soon as possibleyou: pls .. it has been down for 1 hour

you: every day down

Lesya Geychenko: I am so sorry, our admins are working on the issue

Lesya Geychenko: Sorry, we do not have any ETA yet, the issue will be fixed as soon as possible

you: we have to contact ixwebhosting just about everyday about the servers being down.. this is not the service we have paid for

Lesya Geychenko: I understand your concerns about this, you can create a ticket and provide statistics on the server side issue and ask for permanent solution

you: we have already

you: what’s going on?

you: over 1 hour

you: hello, any updates so far?

Lesya Geychenko: Yes, our admins are working on the issue, they will send a notification to me when they finish

you: please

Lesya Geychenko: The issue should be fixed within 15 minutes

you: ok

Lesya Geychenko: I am extremely sorry to tell you, I just got the news from our admins

you: ok

Lesya Geychenko: They maintain the server longer than I have expected

Lesya Geychenko: The server will be up in 60 minutes

you: ixwebhosting is really unreliable…..

 
ixwebhosting.com, 05th 2009f February, 2009
Hello we understand our server is down for about 1 hour. We will fix it as soon as possible. Please do not bother us with your enquiries because it wastes our time. We are trying our best. If you don’t like it, please do not contact us or join our excellent web hosting server. You can see on this website we are rated very high. We are not interested in people just complaining and bothering us about our servers. We know it is currently experiencing problems but we will fix it!
 
Heidi, 03rd 2009f February, 2009
Just got off the phone with ix, for the past 2 weeks every evening at 6 o clock my sites stop loading, and I cannot retrieve my Emails. It is so frustrating that the support just say that everything is working fine. I’ll be looking to move my sites.
 
Matt, 02nd 2009f February, 2009
The server is currently down. IT is down about every 5-10 minutes for 30 seconds – 2minutes. Right now it has been down for over 10 minutes. We need to get to our database and info but we can’t. This is just bad for us. ixwebhosting.com really cannot get it right. We have contacted them over 100 times in the past month but they keep saying they fixed the problem. I don’t see how ixwebshosting rating is high on the right menu on this website. It means they probably get some cut when referring clients.

IX Web Hosting’s Promise to you.

promise

Remeber this? In big letters on their Home Page, “Our Promise to you“  well, the ship started sinking in April, and the rats started fleeing, and  “Their Promise to us” disappeared like a fart in the wind.. Or so they had hoped.

Let me take you back in time, to refresh your memory, read and have a laugh at the promises that were made, hey, even sit back and listen  to the CEO Fathi Said tell us how important we are.. as he well puts it, “Without you, IX  web hosting would not exist“  Ooohhh and while you are enjoying the blast to the past, why not send him a personal message..

ENJOY : http://web.archive.org/web/20080101195251/www.ixwebhosting.com/index.php/v2/pages.ourPromiseToYou 

Dear Friend,It’s my personal wish to address you with this letter. It is very important for me to get in touch with my customers, for a simple reason:

Without you, we would not be in business.

IX Web Hosting Reviews August 2008

you_suck

 

Jebac, 30th 2008f August, 2008
CRAP, CRAP, CRAP. Avoid them at ALL cost. I was stupid not to google for review before signing up.
 
Jim, 30th 2008f August, 2008
Good service until a few weeks ago and since then it can’t get much worse. Two of my domains (I have 5) have been moved and the others will soon follow.
 
Jeff, 18th 2008f August, 2008
I had been a customer of IX Web Hosting for over 4 years. I have watched their service and support deteriorate significantly especially the past year. My web sites were routinely down and IX Web Hosting missed their guaranteed up-time metrics nearly every month. When I complained they would credit my account for an additional month. Finally after my sites were down for 10 consecutive days I decided a change was in order. I moved my sites and canceled my IX Web Hosting account. Rather than getting the money back I was told I would get a fraction of the refund I was owed. The customer service and billing department argued that the credits I received for them missing their stated guarantee were basically worthless from a monetary standpoint and that they continued to incur charges. Not only did I have to endure countless outages and deal with incompetent technical support leading to additional downtime and outages but I would pay for this “privilege” receiving a minimum refund. I’ve opened a complaint with the Better Business Bureau about their business tactics and I recommend to everyone to say as far away from IX Web Hosting as possible. If you already have an account there I suggest getting out while you can before you find your sites and your money drained.
 
Useless Uptime, 08th 2008f August, 2008
I do not recommend them at all. STAY AWAY.
Their servers are continually down, and suppport is non existant, if you try to resolve things with them
 
no need for detail, 03rd 2008f August, 2008
You’ve said it all.
Thank God my account is up for renewal in 30 days.
I am looking elsewhere.
CC2k will post its new home when we find one and are sure it will not bring heartache to others.

Bye Bye IX, you had you chances, way too many of them.

 
chris, 02nd 2008f August, 2008
Yes, it was working for about 10 minutes, i was able to get an order … then it’s down again. The guy who tripped over the cord maybe also spilled coffee over the electrical outlet. God!
 
bigboytoyauction.com, 02nd 2008f August, 2008
DANG IT !!!! It was working and i start uploading and BAM!! MFR its down again
 
Chris, 02nd 2008f August, 2008
Haha.. funny. I actually tried to click on Ixwebhosting.com google ads and the site doesn’t load. This is how our customers are feeling when they click on our ads. This also isn’t good for internet rankings I suppose. My server is down at the moment and i’m just sitting here twittling my thumbs.
 
kenny, 02nd 2008f August, 2008
Actually I couldnt get on their website but you can call them at 1800 385 0450 or 1 614 534 1961. I dont understand how their who network of servers are down at the same time. Did someone trip over the power cord? Well, i have to say at least they answered my call. This is the 6th time the server was down in the past week. I have three website monitors running at the same time which alert me each time the server is down. This doesn’t include server stalling problems. Im starting to regret I am hosting with ixwebhosting. If this continues I will for certain move to another company.
 
kenny, 02nd 2008f August, 2008
Yes, the server is down. I contacted Ixwebhosting just now and they said it will be fixed in 30 minutes. I also used alertra to check ixwebhosting website and they are down as well. Just keep clicking on their google ads so they know how it feels when our websites are down and people click on ours. Here is the logs for Ixwebhosting.com website itself.

Dont get me wrong, I have used them for quite a while and never had an issue but all of a sudden its not working. I think its back up now guys try it. This means it was only down for about 5 minutes.
 
bigboytoyauction.com, 02nd 2008f August, 2008
My server is down to this isnt normal I was in the middle of uploading something.
 
Kenny, 02nd 2008f August, 2008
The problem I found is that when the server is down with Ixwebhosting they will deny it is down. Even with proof logs of 3rd party monitoring companies such as alertra and internetseers. My server is down right now as well. I need help but cannot find anyone at ixwebhosting.
 
Chris, 02nd 2008f August, 2008
hello, yes, my server is down with ixwebhosting too. I dont think they know how to run a company. Something is wrong. The server is down more than once a week! I also need suggestions on better servers. This isn’t cutting it.
 
Jack, 02nd 2008f August, 2008
Any good suggestions on servers. Ixwebhosting.com server is down at this moment and I cannot get to contact anyone at the company.

IX Web Hosting Reviews July 2008

you_suck_sad

 

Patrick, 28th 2008f July, 2008
ixwebhosting.com is basically bottom of the barrel hosting. I can’t imagine anything worse. Their server went down again Saturday and now my entire wiki website no longer works because of a corrupted database. Do not use this host because you WILL have problems. Lots of them.
 
Pascal, 28th 2008f July, 2008
I have to admit, IXwebhosting is not that good. My site has been down 4 times in the past year. sometimes it takes 12-24 hours to get things back up and running. The email servers have been slow lately. Right now, my FTP service does not work; I can’t login either. I’ve started looking for another host because reliability is my main concern.
 
Alex Ho, 28th 2008f July, 2008
Ok, GUYS, I’m so pissed with this ixwebhosting sh*t. 2 weeks ago their MySQL server was down and they didn’t save a back up for me even they could be able to back up some other databases which made me so pissed coz I have a forum of 12,000 members for 5 years. (Fortunately I got my own back up, but it’s 6 months old!) Yes, I called them, chatted live, emailed, ticketed, all sh*t, but all I got was “we are wrking on it”. Funny, huh?

They have cheap plans, I agree, the reason I chose them cause they had cheap plans, and I tested their website speed with a tool, and their site speed was light speed. However, after using their hosting for 2 years, now their hosting service turned out too bad now. My sites have been on and off, regardless the daytime or nighttime. Just imagine you staying home on Saturday night and Sunday night coding your site instead of going out watch movies with your cute girlfriend, and suddenly the site&host&ftp… everything shut down at 1am when you are so stuck with the code, that’s b*** sh*t huh?

GUYS, PLEASE THINK OVER BEFORE BUYING THIS HOSTING SERVICE: IXWEBHOSTING.COM <= Cheap doesn’t mean good!

I’m on my way finding another hosting, hix

Anyway, read over this comment box to see how BAD this hosting service is! I saw about 95% NEGATIVE FEEDBACK!

 
cashzzz@hotmail.com, 27th 2008f July, 2008
The server is down right now receiving the following error: HTTP/1.1 500 Server Error. The reply from the tech support said they cannot help and we need to send a ticket to the center. All sites are down. It’s time to move servers.
 
kads, 22nd 2008f July, 2008
i am moving webhost. my site is down at the moment, their support doesnt even speak english, my emails dont work. their site doesn’t work. + when my site does load, it loads at 2 miles per century. im moving to 5quidhost.co.uk which has awesome reviews.
 
cashzzz@hotmail.com, 20th 2008f July, 2008
I think we have to throw in the towel soon. We have given ixwebhosting a serious try and in the past 2 months, the web server has been down more than 8-10 times. The email server also had problems as well and does not send out emails. We have also contacted the tech support online, which is good they have this feature, but they never know how to fix the problem. They will ask you to send an email. But they wont fix it until hours up to 5 days. We are looking for better hosting and would like your suggestions. Ixwebhosting is not good enough at this point. Server has too many problems and downtime is serious.
 
elawcase@gmail.com, 20th 2008f July, 2008
Ixwebhosting.com server ns13, and ns14 is currently down. We have contacted ixwebhosting support and they do not how to fix the problem. The server has been down for 3 days intermittently. The server is down now.

The uptime is brilliant. My site has only been down twice for about 5 minutes. But I do not recommend this host. The MySQL server I am on has a lot of problems. Some guy I know keylogged me and got into my forums and deleted everything. The backups I uploaded wouldn’t work, so I made a support ticket. It took them TWO WEEKS to reply. They said they had a backup from the day before it was hacked. I asked them to restore it. A week later they replied again and said they didn’t have the backup. So, I had to completely start my forum over again. Next month I will be moving host, and I asked them to email me a backup of my website. I have been waiting 3 days so far and still no reply from them.

THE SUPPORT SUCKS. Do not host with these guys. It is a waste of money and a waste of time. Plus they have really bad servers.

In the name of almighty God, do not host with ixwebhosting!You will have the greatest regrets in your life. All the websites I have been developing for years disappeared and ixwebhosting said that was due to massive hard storage failure and that the data are irrecoverable.Please,Please,Please do not host with this company as it is not a company but a form of internet dupe!

Okay, it has been now 4-5 days that the email server does not work with ixwebhosting. They keep saying please wait 24 hours and the issue will be resolved. But so far their email webserver is not working or sending emails out. I think I may need to throw in the towel soon. Ixwebhosting does not know how to run their web servers or maintain it. If they do not fix the email server 2 more days, I have to urgently move my server.. anyone with good suggestions of a company who is reliable, know how to maintain the server, doesn’t overload the servers, has multi domain hosting for ASP classic pages, and uses HSphere, please let me know. Thank you. cashzzz@hotmail.com

I’m quite frustrated because the email server at ixwebhosting is not working properly . Not sending out emails at all. This is the second day and the issue is not resolved yet. Really frustrating. If anyone has suggestions of other hosting that uses hsphere control panel and unlimited domain hosting, pls let me know. cashzzz@hotmail.com
