Footnote to previous posts: This past week we launched a marketing campaign for our new CMS sites. Have sales people visiting busnesses face to face, we ran radio ads and other methods, thousands of dollars invested, today our 1and1 dedicated server has been offline since early morning and is still not online 10 hours laters, taking down 128 domains.

Aside from investments, we also lost $10k today as a result and tech support has been tellig us all day that the server would be back up in 2 hours, 10 hours later we were told there was no ticket, after several previous calls tha said indeed it was being worked on. Our clients sites have been down all day and evening, still not back yet. They have lied to us and we are wondering now if the dedicated servers are in fact dedicated servers or perhaps virtual dedicated servers??? or are there other issues. Third time in 2 months this has happened. We will be transfering out and make sure that every forum we can find will put out the warning.
