Important Announcement regarding BlazingVPS and ShoutCastUK

[Rox]

Hello All,

Just wanted to share some news about your favorite hosting companies (ShoutCastUK and BlazingVPS). We have both sad and good news to share.

Let me tell out the sad part first.
BlazingVPS is now sold. We had to take this very hard decision since Ben required cash for personal reasons and there was no other way than to release the capital invested in this venture. We did look for investors but nobody came forward. Hence, sale of BlazingVPS was the only thing we could think of. All VPS clients have been sold to the new owner, who will send out a mass email after the complete sale is done, revealing their identity and all further details you may require. The company does not want to reveal themselves as of now. Please be patient, you will receive the details soon. ETA - 24 hours.

And now for the good news

1) We will be launching a new venture called http://www.prospeedhost.com (Site may be down for you due to DNS not propogated). The intention to launch this venture is to stay in the market and to offer all our services under one brand. All services mean - Shoutcast Radio Hosting, Shared Hosting, VPS Hosting and Dedicated Servers.

2) All shared accounts which were transferred to VPS4Less.co.uk are taken back by us These accounts are being setup slowly since we have lots of things to complete. So please be patient. You will enjoy the same old support you were used to when you were on BVPS/SCUK. We also have a new full-time techie joining us, which means more of better support.

3) ShoutCastUK is closed since all the radio clients were transferred over to VPS4Less.co.uk, we may or may not get those clients back on board. But, be sure that we will be offering Radio Hosting services on ProSpeedHost.com

Looking forward for your support while we complete a big list of things in our hands. These decisions are aimed at consolidating all services under one name and mainly to get back the shared hosting clients back on board since we know that all our valued customers faced a lot of losses with VPS4Less, both monetary and non-monetary.

Members who would like to sign-up with us are more than welcome to do so.

Regards,
Rox

Would just like to add, that nothing needs to be done by the clients as the buyer has purchased the WHOLE site so he will continue to run it just like we have been, so there will be no downtime or changes for clients except a new support team will be coming in to take our place.

Id like to thank everyone for there on going support for BlazingVPS.com, without you it wouldnt have been worth doing. Below are a few little things you need to remember...

1) Cancel all paypal subscriptions
2) Dont panic and start opening support tickets, nothing will change for you.
3) New owners will introduce themselves later today/tomorrow.

As Rox has already said above, this wasnt an easy decsion and if it wasnt for the change in my personal circumstances it would never had happened.

Thank you

Christ oh mighty, so in one less than one month i've gone through 4 hosts and probably had say around 2weeks uptime lol.

Woah, i'm going to have to move unless this new brand can win me over quickly.

GeeZus message me

[ThumperTM]

For me, those "guys" who are selling they clients should be called CASHWHORES

[UKInternetGroup]

GeeZus - I can asure you all shared clients will be getting golden service from our new brand, we understand that we had previous issues and then vps4less just couldnt handle the amount of accounts and they also lost there top support guys, so Moving you all back to Me and my team will be the best thing. We have fronted alot of money building the new infrastructure to be able to offer the complete and stable environment.

Anyone needed there site on super fast, provide me your username and il move your accounts forward for restore.

[GeeZus]

Please explain about this "golden service" and what exactly it means?

I've seen time and time again hosts saying "this time around, we've put so much into this..., From now on your be getting the best.. etc etc"

[DLow]

This is going to turn into a interesting thread.

I've got a feeling that you'll get popular & sell your customers, then start a new site and repeat.

Firstly, i dont feel we can be seen as " many hosts " Ive worked so hard to be get my name away from abuse about hosts on this site, to try get away from the abuse that surf's around KWWH about " new hosts ", I'm not a new host, you all know who i am, If anything id like to think we are a host that, yes had its problems (who doesnt) but also a host that can be trusted to offer low priced solutions and still be here the next day....

Once the sale of blazing went through, i planned to walk away from hosting... but instead i saw what a mess vps4less were making of your accounts, yet again ive put my personal life on hold to makesure you guys get what you deserve. So lets not turn this thread into something which is going to make me out to look bad.

Golden service, basically means priority support, at least 1 month free hosting due to the issues you have been suffering (out of my pocket, not vps4less's) im sure you get the idea.
