    Junior is now opening chargebacks against his upstreams (https://www.lowendtalk.com/discussion/comment/3081100/#Comment_3081100).

    Shitfit and stomping off forever? Fine, we all have that point. Charging back people providing you a service? Unforgivable.

    Junior is Chike's nickname, HostDoc's sole proprietor.

    Guess he's probably going to get some shit on Facebook now that he's charging back his providers.

    He's effectively blacklisted himself from the hosting industry. The dude does make some rather rash decisions, so maybe it's for the best.

    Ah okay, thank you. Is it just me, or does the name sound a bit familiar? Seems like a deja-vu moment...

You won't be receiving a refund from HostDoc, he doesn't have any cash and obviously won't be helping anyone out given this latest behaviour.

    I hope we all remember this if he decides to give hosting another shot years from now.

    Shit the bed!

    Maybe new thread time to raise awareness... and I think in the interest of individuals I suggest someone does the same on LET.

  • Host doc went from recommended to scam. How long was I away for?

    If it’s not broken, keep fixing it until it is. Blink twice if you agree.

  • 7 years, sir. 7 years.

    Yes and no. Deals or promotions don't have to be a problem as @seriesn pointed out in his current sales thread. Problem with HostDoc was that their deals and promos were ongoing. That they didn't offer a (say) 30% recurring discount, but 70%. And all this on brand new hardware. Another business model (that we see a lot in LE World) is of course selling deals on older hardware.

    If you’ve been treading these waters long enough, you will know what I was talking about. It had nothing to do with HD
