Hi All,

This is what I got as a reply of my support tickets from unlimitedone.com a so called free host.

My First Support ticket to them.

Hi there Support Stalwarts,

Are image hosting scripts allowed on my plan ? I plan to use Coppermine Photo Gallery on my site, but without user registrations and I will be the sole uploading person in the gallery. I just am going to use this script to showcase my pictures and caps of the videos I am going to upload on free hosting sites like rapidshare, megaupload, mediafire, sendspace, etc.

Kindly let me know whether this is allowed or not so that if it is not allowed, I can cancel the service.

Regards,
Hotvins

My Second Support Ticket to them

Now, if its a free account, how will I buy it from some store or auction ? :lol: :lol: :D :D :D

Now, if it is a totally free account, why did they not mention that you need to buy a domain from them while signing up ?

Now, please don't add infractions like last time :D, since I am not abusing the host, I am only putting forward a question. :D
 
One of those "unlimited" disk space and bandwidth providers. I can't begin to imagine why you are receiving the responses you are. :) :)
 
Why would you even sign up with an "unlimited" host ? I would not. I always want to know my exact disk space, BW, etc.

Two hosts exist, both offering a package for the exact same price. One host offers 10GB and the other host offers "unlimited" space. The customers will almost always choose the "unlimited" host because they're uneducated. They always seem to think that bigger is better. The host who offers "unlimited" space justify will it with excuses and TOS that are so tight that it's impossible for people to use even 1 GB. They don't understand. They'd rather have the most space for their money, even if they're only going to use a fraction of it. People do not like limits.

Unfortunately you are right. But from the experience and your reply, I have learnt the lesson now. :) Thanks a ton for this to you. :)
 
So the conclusion is, in hosting, nothing is unlimited!
Especially those free ones, it is impossible for them to give you anything unlimited!

Agreed. For me the lesson is to watch out for anything that is called "unlimited" in the business. I'm also not sure I like the idea of "take a ticket". I'd rather be with a Free Webhost that I can PM, or better yet, has an active Discussion Forum where more than one person could respond to my enquiry.
:)
 
and the most funny thing about this so called free host is, they are asking people to pay for using their free hosting service.
since they are asking people to pay for the free hosting account activation, it is not a free hosting anymore.
they should call them self a "1 time payment for lifetime usage hosting"
:)
