1&1 has a TON of print advertising out there. Which may be how you ended up with them; they advertise quite low prices (and now we know HOW).

Any hope of setting up an alternative domain? bunnywarez.* ?

dude. the BEST PART was on Friday, my third day dealing directly with them (Jovino did Tuesday). "Mr Damian" the head of billing was attempting to reassure me, saying "I understand this is difficult for you, and I hope you understand that we are striving to provide you with the level of service you have paid for" and I laughed out loud at the guy and said "touche'!"

he was speechless - totally didn't expect I would interpret his statement that way (but, come on.)

anyway, the ordeal is ovah!

Praise be for that!

Needless to say 1&1 (perhaps that's their quality and responsiveness scores on a 1 to 10 scale?) aren't getting any positive references from me!

*hugs* I hope you're able to get this sorted out soon.
Too bad BunnyWarez doesn't have Grinch ears. They'd be the perfect gift for your internet provider.

Please let me know if there's anything I can do (help with your upcoming sale, any promotions, keeping eyes peeled for anything...or anything you can think of.)
