Kubilay (kubi.ozi@g...) / neointelligence.org

😠 micfo.com is really bad
Their technical team has no idea about what they are doing. I lost many domains because they rollbacked their server to an earlier time. They even cant answer which date their last backup was. I hope I will get my money back. It's been almost a day and I'm waiting for the backup of my domains.

😁 Micfo is truly amazing!
I support businesses that are hungry to grow. Cutting edge strive for improvement, suite of cPanel apps, special offers for long timers are handful of things that I love the most about Micfo. I am glad to be a part of Micfo's growth and improvements over the last six years.

Tom (militarynetwork@g...) / dallasdodgeball.com

😁 Great Hosting Service
Micfo has been hosting my websites for over 5 years. There have been some ups and downs. But generally they are very responsive, either with their billing or technical support. I have tried godaddy.com hosting and several others, and come back to Micfo. Their senior unix admin is great and helpful. Their billing department is honest and fair, als o with their Life-time promotions. The way they do their business is respectful and I think they do take care of their customers.

😁 When I was shopping around for web host in 2005, someone recommended Micfo. I tried it out for awhile and there were some issues with downtime. I had decided to leave Micfo at that time. However, your service representatives worked with me with the issues and things have run smoothly since that time. Five years is a long time to have things run that smoothly with a web host. I have hosting accounts with others - one that dates back to 2001 and costs quite a bit more. However, Micfo provides more space and is just as reliable for considerably less money. I would honestly recommend Micfo to anyone looking for a web host at this time.

Brian (admin@f...) / ispshakedown.com

😞 I used this site to host a few websites. Everything went ok for a year then all of the sudden my sites were down all the time. I lost data and a lot of money with this company. They created so much anger that I forgot to renew the sites.

I was also an affiliate with them and accumulated a few thousands dollars or more. They paid part of it and promised to pay the rest later. They never did. So, I lost even more money. Never use Micfo.com. Trust me. Read my review and the other reviews.

Jack (archer2009@g...)

😞 Been with them about 4 or 5 years now.

For the last 2 years I only stayed with them because they offered UK based webservers.

My websites are all based for things in the UK.

They moved me to a new webserver but didn't tell me the new server would be in the USA

so I have noticed a slow down in my websites now because the traffic goes all the way from the UK to USA

When I first joined the service was good, then rubbish for a long time, now it's good again

Their domain name services are rubbish and over priced - Their technical support is pretty decent by email

overall they're ok

😠 NIGHTMARE!!! My site just disappeared one fine day! My site was accessible till around the 5th of December and it's not a site I check regularly but when I checked recently I noticed it was not loading. So I opened a support ticket with them and they said they had some server migration and that the data is lost, they can't even trace my website (can you believe that), and what's worse they dont have backups!!! So basically I've lost my site, my traffic, my rankings, my revenue and they don't even apologise. They just keep saying they cannot do anything. I am still in a state of shock as to what to do. It's crazy!!! PLEASE DO NOT HOST WITH THEM!

David (swappics44@g...)

😠 Look closely at the "positive reviews" July 5 & 7 of 2008. They were posted 2 days apart and both have higher marks than I would give the best host. They are both using free email services and Benjamin's email is johndauglas. They are false reviews.

There is no way anyone who has used Micfo for more than a week could possibly rate them higher than a 2 or 3. Give it a month and you will loath the name Micfo.

I purchased a full year of hosting and I just finished moving my site to another host. I have had to contact their support team 11 times. I have had http server crashes, mail server crashes, etc. I even had my IP blocked from my own server because I have a script that visitors use to upload images and they thought I was malisious.

I had a support ticket go back and forth 23 times before I finally gave up, removed a domain then re-added it to fix it myself.

If you're looking to save a few bucks, host your own site from an Atari 800 and it will be more stable.

zako (mkrmokra56@g...)

😠 My experience with micfo was one of the worst. Their technical side seemed OK bur slow to react.

But when it comes to the billing and customer service sections, it is a complete nightmare.

I would not recommend anyone to micfo.com as you they don''t care about their customers.

I tried their service for some projects and when I am going to upload and present the project to my clients, MICFO. com called to say that made a mistake in their billing!!!

They even agreed that they made the mistake but are not able to correct that mistake. What is the point as I had just a few hours before the clients to check it out and the server details passed on to the client.

My credibility as developer had been lost in the eyes of the client, specially being new clients.

To avoid unexpected surprises, please NEVER consider their services.

They do offer service but not to the customer. So it is simply pointless cosidering them.

😠 (Update...Micfo still didn't cover the bad NSF check from 7-27-07!!)

Purchased a 3 year plan from MICFO.com and it went well for the "trial" period. After they had my money the support was terrible. Server crashes and constant downtime without help. Tried to charge me to reload a backup of our website when they crashed their own server.

Ended up moving to a different hosting company. Went through hell to get any kind of a refund, as they don't refund after the *tiral period*. (see the fine print).

They sent me a measly check for $58, which was at least something.

Turned out the check was BAD. They didn't even have $58 in the bank to cover it! Can you imagine operating a company with no money in the bank? Write out a bad check to a customer?
Here is a copy of the check...from 7/27/07. (if the url is allowed here)

😠 MG Super Plan
Micfo started off pretty good about 2 years ago, assisted with migrating our website to their hosting. After a year our website kept crashing and loosing data from SQL. It quickly got worse with poor support and constant downtime.

We decided to migrate to a different hosting service, as Micfo's poor service was making our business look bad. Since we had a 4-year prepaid plan, we obviously expected a refund for the unused portion.

After 3 weeks of asking for a refund, they finally sent us a check for $58 (which was under the amount they really owed us). Instead of fighting over it, we decided to just deposit the company check and be done with their company.

WRONG. The company check that Micfo sent us bounced, NSF funds and could not cover the $58 check they wrote us! When a company cannot cover a $58 check they wrote, its pretty bad.

After 3 weeks of trying to resolve the NSF check via the phone, and their online ticket/support system, we are [read more...]

😠 I am about to hit the two year mark with these bozos. In general things have been good with a few exceptions, and through the beginning of this year it has steadily gotten worse. There has been several different server problems and I have had a gallery2 database critical to my operations taken down several times because they said it was causing load problems, though I could never substantiate that myself.

On Tuesday of this week I received notice they were moving me to a new server. Well, in my case these things get complicated when it comes to Micfo. Due to my setup I need to take care of the DNS myself, and this is not something I have ever been able to get through the thick heads of the support staff. I sent a message to find out what would be happening to my static IP, which got me a fairly nasty message since I asked if I could keep my old IP (can't you just move it over to the new server?

The server was slow and often got frozen(cannot access). Well, it's a
shared server we can't expect a lot. But we have tried many shared
server. Micfo's one was the worst ever.

The worst thing they have done is just amazing. They moved our
customers' accounts to another server WITHOUT any notice. While moving
them, those accounts were unavailable(7-8 hours!!!). Imagine you have
100 customers for your hosting business, and those accounts are
unavailable for 7-8 hours without any notice. It was just crazy.

Listening to their excuse, first they told us that they e-mailed us
before they moved our customers' accounts, then I asked them when they
sent, then no reply. It's for sure they did not send any e-mail.

Also Micfo's customer service is the lowest quority. When you ask them
to fix a problem, well, they may fix the problem, but make other
problems. Then you ask them to fix the problems they made, then, as you

Simon Smith (contact@l...)

😠 I've been with Micfo for a couple of years and at first, everything was good.

But in the last 6 months they've completely lost an online shop website, leaving me to restore it TWICE. They've lost odd tables from databases and tried to make out it was my fault. Email has been a nightmare with random mails going missing without trace.

They even tried to charge me $30 to restore a backup when they had lost data. And then turned round and said they couldn't restore it because they didn't have backups - !!!! Even though on their "guarantees" page they say they take daily and weekly backups so their customers won't ever have to worry about losing data!

And their support is getting worse and worse. Non answered tickets, arrogance, lying about problems, etc, etc.

I'm now looking for a new host.

😠 Hi:

I'm contacting all the people over internet who use or try to use this disastrous company, just for let that people know that they can be safe of spent money and valuable time getting away from them.

I wasted only two weeks with them and I'm so so so tired of to have problems of all of kind, suspended accounts for any reason, money lost and hours waiting desperado for one response.

Don't live the same hell that I lived.

Forget Micfo, it's not a company, it's the hell itself!!!!!!!!!

If you need proves of this I have ALL the tickets I had to send to them in just ten days.

😠 Please read this review. I never fill these things out, but I fell like these guys actually need to be shot down. They boast all about their 24/7 customer service. You know what you get when you call their "24/7 customer service"? Somebody with a bunch of excuses that eventually tells you that you need to contact a different department during their standard opperating hours, not 24/7. Do you want to know who responds to you when you contact that other department dureing thier standard opperating hours? Well if you are lucky enough to get a response, you get sombody else who has no idea what is going on and says that they are forwarding your ticket to their supervisor. Well I havent heard from the supervisor yet, and Im not sure if I ever will. And so you can understand how bad this is, I will tell you exactly what it is that is so difficult for them to do. I wanted help renewing my domain name that I had transfered to them. I am so frustrated with these guys that I feel it [read more...]

😠 Honestly -- do NOT choose Micfo.com as your hosting provider. They are complete scam artist.

I was with Mico.com for only one month. During this month, my sites were down at least 3 times a week. My email was down and I was forced to use gmail to get by and I lost a customer I had for 3 years. Hinse -- there servers are up 75% of the time and when you want to cancel this is what they have to say to you:

Hello Jeaneen,

Cancellation requests must be submitted 7 days prior to the new billing cycle. According to our terms of service located at www.micfo.com/tou.html, you were not even entitled for the second refund that we issued as your cancellation requests did not come 7 days in advance.

Our uptime guarantee indicates that if we do not meed the 99.9% uptime, you will receive 1 months free hosting and no refunds/credits will be issued. For more information please refer to our SLA at www.micfo.com/sla.html.

Thank you.

Sincerely,
Micfo Group

😠 I was with Micfo for a little over a year and would like to point out that:

1. If uptime means nothing to you

2. If you enjoy surly "customer support" representatives who offer excuses rather than solutions

3. If you want to spend tons of money in advertising, only to have Micfo drive away all of your customers because your Web site is NEVER up

4. If, like me, you ask them to move your site to a new server because the one they put you on is down *a few times per week*--and when they "copy" your site from one server to another, they accidentally delete your e-mail system so that it no longer works, and then tell you that, "We don't know how this happened; you'll have to hire someone to fix it (!)"

....then Micfo is the perfect service for you!

The list goes on; these are just some of the highlights. They started out fine when I signed up in 2004, but a few months into my subscription, the problems started, and everything continued to degenerate until I found my [read more...]

Concerned ex-client (filmgirl21@y...)

😠 Please take this very seriously if you care about your webpage!

I think the only way people give micfo good reviews is when they think having to submit support tickets every few weeks is normal! Their 24 support frequently is not available, and the billing department disappeared for several months last year - probably because they were having to give out too many refunds!

In the past year, my email went down more times then I can count. They have server problems that mean that all your mail since you joined them will download to you mail client all at once.

Also my website was down at least five times in one year, each time for a period of over 12 hours.

Worse then this is several of my support tickets just went unanswered, and when I resubmitted them they said I was not timely enough for the refund clearly deserved to me for the down time! This was said even though I had the receipt as proof that I did submit the original ticket on time. My attempts to cancel with [read more...]

😁 Hello,

I'm a webmaster and have a small reseller account with Micfo.com and hosting over 10 domains there for the past 7 months. I have actually been more than satisfied with them in every terms, specially customer service. The other day I had my website hacked due to the insecure software that i used MYSELF. I called their support hot-line and someone calls Rocky B. got my issue resolved in 15 minutes! They restored my site from the backup! Now this is the service I expect!

Thanks!
John Parast.
