SCAM SCAM SCAM

advantagehost is not new, after you sign up for their service, they close shop in 1 or 2 months
then re-open and ask you to sign up again

nothing but a money making scam that leaves the people who signed up for free hosting without a site after a few weeks

ONLY SIGNUP IF YOU WANT YOUR FREE HOSTING TO LAST NO MORE THAN 8 WEEKS.

also: THIS GUY HAS BEEN DOING THIS ON HERE FOR ALMOST 2 YEARS NOW
just the 500 MEGS of SPACE and 25 GIG of DATA in his offer gave him away

this weeks FREE advice: STAY AWAY FROM THIS HOST

Actually, I would like to point out that I dont nor never have owned megawebspace.co.uk I have only just started working for AdvantageHost in the past month or so.

As far as I know the reson why user accounts were deleted before was that advertisers refused to pay up and eventually they couldnt pay for the servers. This was because most of the traffic they were sending to the advertisers was not UK traffic, which also answers your other 'remarks' as to why we only offer UK accounts.

The owners of AdvantageHost have done numerous checks this time to ensure that this does not happen again. This has already proven its self as we have already been opperating for over 2months now before even considering to post on forums.

Thankyou for your time

Nathan

Yes guys, Jayson Cooke is the owner, however I only work for him, and I am not him. Constructive Criticism is more than welcome but this is getting rather childish, ok so I get the picture that you have had bad experiences with Jayson in the past, just wait out a few months and see how it goes before you judge. At the end of the day it is Free Hosting, your not paying for support or anything but we do try to give support as much as possible. Jayson has learnt from his mistakes and has attempted to correct them. For you only truly learn through failure.

If you still have such an animosity against AdvantageHost then ok fair enough, I can’t change your views, but please stop spamming on this thread. I've merely came here to let people know about AdvantageHost, if they don’t want to join up they don’t have to, the choice is theirs. So guys come on, please act a little more mature. You never know you might be pleasantly surprised.

Thanks for your time

Nathan

I've read all the posts, who or how is anyone acting immature ?
all everyone has pointed out is that your company is a SCAM
are YOU mature enough to accept that or understand ?

Hello Hasilegend,

I hope you find the package to your liking. If you find you are having any problems with anything just message me and I will do my best to get them sorted out straight away. Im more than happy to help :classic2:

Lill Persiano when you registered to earn points it takes about 24hrs for the points to clear, your points should be up soon if not tell me and Ill look into it for you. As for the support could I ask who you sought the support off? Did you send an e-mail to the support team? And if so what day was this? Ill chase it up for you :classic2:

ya man i have sent an email to the support team but no answer ! [ Thu, 14 Oct 2004]

i tried the lucky surf 2 for 50 points but i became no points !

so 60 + 50 + 9 from the registration = 119 POINTS would be my real balance but my status is now 2 POINTS ! :tired2:

i would be grateful if you could give me my points !

I think I remember signing up for this host before... It's the one that has you sign up for ---- like bananalotto and then doesn't give you the damned points. I still get spam in the inbox I used to sign up for it from bananalotto and I never saw any of my points.

Two words:

RIP OFF.

Nathan obviously believes that if he can whitewash Cooke's past internet endeavors he can sell the new version more easily.

Nathan, you're selling a product that has failed at least three times. If you truely want satisfied customers, maybe you should look into why there are NONE left from the last few incarnations of Realwebmasters.net. He never improves anything, he begins a site, signs up as many users as he can and then folds to start another site.

And for accusing people of spamming on this thread, you DO realize this is a DISCUSSION forum for Webhosting offers. The people who have posted are following the rules of this website. Unlike your boss, who has spammed countless times advertising his previous ripoffs. You have been recruited because he can't trick people into signing up for his services since his IP and his username are easily identifiable.

You see, there are ALOT of former customers here that are ready to post their reviews which obviously you can't handle or respect.

And btw, Jayson NEVER restricted his users to the UK. He wanted as much money as he could and even suggested ways for people to get around the sign ups for the UK lotto sites for foreign users.

You really need to investigate who it is you're working for. Ignorance is no excuse and you will get caught up in this scam because it is now your name being used for Jayson's money making scheme.

Hey guys,

Just a message to let those of you who were having problems with the points system know that the issue has been dealt with and all your points should have cleared through onto your account.

However, if you have signed up with MyOffers and your points have not shown up, it is more than likely you have not entered your first prize draw. MyOffers requires you to enter one of the prizedraws for you to claim your points. Sorry if this was not made clear at first. Note: Points are only earned for the first prize draw entered.

If you are having trouble logging on to the Cpanel if you PM me with your username, password and e-mail address and I will get it sotred out for you.

Cheers
Nathan
