When I first saw their Advertisement on a Blog, I was really impressed with the value they were giving. Unlimited Hosting for just $4.99.
Though I am very well aware that there is no such thing as unlimited. Its just a way to oversell. But I was hopeful that if not unlimited, I would be comfortable with about 75-100 GB Space for my BlogSite.
Thinking this I signed up with them. I got the welcome mail with the login details.
When I saw my cpanel details, the total space alloted was 10 GB. I asked about this and the WHP support told me that this is the initial quota they supply and will increase it as and when required. I agreed and continued using my space.
Now after about an year, my space (10 GB) is nearing Full. I called them up again to discuss the increasing the space they had promised in the beginning.
But, to my utter surprise, they have DECLINED to increase the space, claiming that I am not allowed to use a Blog.
I said ok let me put Photos ? NO, You cannot Put Multimedia
I said, How about PDF files ? NO, You cannot put that more than 10000 files.
So, Ultimately i am left with Only 10 GB Space and I had given $180 for this 10 GB.
They is Simply Broad Daylight Cheating from WebHostingPad.
