Knew I shouldve run soon as the new was announced...

 

Been with Openhost for over a year, for email and web. 

 

Then announcement that Crazy Domains were taking over Openhost.

 

DIdnt think anything of it at the time.....

 

Then I get email and call to advise they would be migrating all my data to the CD system and there should be no issues.

 

Migration happened last night.

 

I've now lost access to the OH system.

 

Contacted CD. Explained situation. The guy didnt know anything about it. He said I was being hosted by 1st Domains. Wrong. They hold the domain but not anything else.

 

I had to explain that.........

 

Finally he must have figured out what was going on and asked for the admin account I used with OH. Told him the Gmail account I use... "Uhh do you have any other accounts associated to it that I can email a reset link to ?" 

 

WT*. So my admin account is no longer valid to send reset links etc to. Said only other account would be my domain one which I cant access due to their migration.

 

"Ive sent it"

 

To the account I cant access......

 

I killed the chat from there. 

 

Pissed off I've lost some email accounts data, but nothing major.

 

Website thankfully had been moved elsewhere few weeks ago, will now setup all emails on the new host as well........

Backluck. My domains were also managed by OH. The transfer was completed without any issues.

Haha I transferred out my only domain with WD/OH/CD when it fully transitioned to CD just a day or so... All my domains are now registered with IWMN :-)

IWantMyName, easy and no bullshit domain registrar service. Not the cheapest but for what they do and service provided, they do great.

Well it now appears that Crazy Domains does something odd and not RFC compliant with their spam headers which is bouncing emails.

 

Lets see how well their support responds.
