what host is it and how about the storage,bandwith and uptime?
Payment in advanced and no monthly payment option for more than RM 100 IS DEFINITELY A NONO. Why? Later they don't refund you then you know. Check out some reviews at webhostingtalk, there are cases where someone actually paid for it and they did not refund him. They will only do it after 6 months.
I seriously suggest you try other hosting.
Since you are hosting forum (Assuming that your forum has at least more than 2k members), if you have linux understanding, then I suggest you get yourself a VPS.
If all still doesn't work out, then I suggest you try finding a good local host. The best reviews of them are available in this very section itself, all you need to do is search this word, 'hosting'
