VERY interesting conversation. At least there was somebody on the end of the so-called 24-hours-customer-support-online. Unlike most other Malaysian web hosting which claim to have online chat but never been online.

I was about to drop the money to get my hosting done on Mesra hosting, so before I did, I wanted to talk to a sales rep so I could understand more about how good their support was.

Reading their website, the information was not enough. All that they put there, could possibly be advertising that was biased. It always does make me feel better to speak to a sales rep, knowing that at least I'm not doing business with just a computer.

I clicked the online chat, and connected to the sales rep.

This is the chat log that I got, I had a very bad time just trying to chat with the sales rep. He also has problems understanding English, he can't distinguish between Digit and Digital.

So, any other web hosts that anyone here can recommend?

I'm just disappointed that they claim they are reliable, yet he told me not to expect too much for RM100.

"Tell me more about Mesra hosting, I would like to host a website."

** You are now speaking with Administrator, MesraHosting.net Sales. **
Me : Hi
Administrator : Welcome to Mesra Live Support, May i help you?
Me : Good afternoon, may I know who I am speaking to?
Me : I would like to host a website probably in a month's time.
Me : I'm looking for reliability and speed.
Administrator : all on the page sir .. u may refer to it
Me : Yes i am aware, but what domains do you host now? I'm not interested in looking at real examples than text
Administrator : and after a month .. if u hsve any problem on how to signup .. please come back and we chat
Administrator : please look on testimonial
Me : I have no problems with the signup
Me : Okay I will have a look, although the testimonials are outdated
Administrator : if u wanna have prove .. u can ping
Me : Yes i know
Me : Although some of them have closed down, so you might really want to update that page
Administrator : some is outdated .. but almost of them are still working
Administrator : copy the domain and ping
Me : Any easier way to pay besides going to the bank or doing online banking, credit card possibly?
Administrator : close down mean user doesnt pay .. no payment mean we gonna close
Me : I see
Administrator : no credit card transaction .. only bank in ..online banking... argghh .. i hate to talk about future or coming month
Administrator : all on our page sir
Me : If we're talking about sales, no one can buy now right away.
Me : Provide me with some customer support and I will give you the business.
Administrator : with RM100 ? that not a business
Me : Today is also a saturday, no banks are open.
Me : RM100 is also money
Administrator : maybe some other will offer RM100 like ppl pay RM1000
Administrator : RM100 is nothing now days
Administrator : and dont expect too much with RM100
Me : You are a sales rep, it does not matter really how much the product is. I am only looking for some information, if you find it irritating to provide me with some basic information. Then I'd think something is wrong with your organisation.
Me : If you tell me not to expect too much with RM100, it also means that I cannot expect what you advertise on your website for RM100
Administrator : even RM100 gone after fill the petrol for 1 day
Administrator : yeah .. coz RM100 is nothing now days
Administrator : and ur expectation are so high
Administrator : hehe
Me : I never said what my expectations were.
Me : I only asked, what can you provide.
Administrator : u just saying about speed sir
Administrator : dont u forget that
Me : Yes, did I say what peed?
Administrator : ha ha
Me : I know what speed you can provide, I want to know what you will say about that.
Me : Speed in this sense is a digit, did i mention what speed i needed?
Me : I did not, i only said speed.
Me : My speed may not be what you think it is.
Administrator : wow .. ing about digital;
Administrator : talkiing about digital
Administrator : wow so high imagination la u
Me : Digit is not digital, if you have a problem understanding me, I think you are not qualified to do this job.
Administrator : ha ha ha
Administrator : yeah .. then u are qualified ?
Administrator : or just a word ?
Me : I only requested that you provide me with basic answers, do you find it so difficult?
Administrator : hehe
Administrator : i did answe
Administrator : look on our p;age
Administrator : and u said u bettrer look on prove rather then text
Administrator : what so high la man
Administrator : ha ha has
Me : Yes, but can you tell me what speeds your servers are connected to backbones?
Me : You don't.
Me : You say high speed, but what speed. I need some information as well that cannot be found on the website.
Administrator : sir .. this is waste my time .. i had 5 others to support rather then talking sabout so high on ur expectation .. sorry sir .. go on mumbling .. i'm not to bother what are u saying ..wasting time
Administrator : c ya
Me : I can tell Mesra doesn't care about customer service.

Mesra customer support like cannot make it, very frustrated.

For your information, there's even a webhost giving RM2 per month(but they're out of business now), but if you're prepared to pay that amount or any amount whatsoever, be prepared to expect the same service given according to how much you pay. So, if you're looking for one below RM60, you'll definitely be able to get it... nod.gif

I would like to show my gratitude to Mr. Lee from ipserverone.com. He has helped me with every processes for me to transfer my website to ipserverone. His online support (though we only liaised through email) is supperb and he (or his staff) doesn't take long to reply my enquiry, even on weekends!

server speed is fast, though i'm just on a shared hosting. Btw, for those who doesn't know, lowyat.net is under ipserverone's dedicated server.

There was this one time that an obstacle occured and i've run out of ideas as to how to solve the issue (wont describe it here since it involves the server's security), i've asked for refunds since ipserverone do have the 30-days money back guaranteed practise, Mr. Lee didn't even a little hesitated to honor that. However he did suggested a way, which turns out to be workable for my case.

Ya, the plans seems to be affordable. However, I do not quite believe with this host. The site is not complete at all. Information are not enough, where are your servers located at? Do you own the servers? I seriously doubt that this is a reseller hosting. hmm.gif I have my reasons to believe so. smile.gif

My pixcle.com hosting went down again today. For 2 hours. Already emailed them but I reckon will receive similar response like "the downtime was beyond our control due to <insert reasons or excuses here of Singapore data centre faulty card bla bla>".

Anyway, I've already had 2-3 new web hosting to choose to migrate this July. Been monitoring them for a few months before I can be sure.
