New Hosting Service

I've just about had enough of ITXdesign.com. Back in the day, they were small and friendly and I got EXCELLENT service. I could call up there and talk to Paul, the owner, and he'd help me with various technical issues and such.

However, now they have grown and are a fairly large hosting service. Guess what was the first thing to go by the wayside? RIGHTO! SERVICE. Now, the only way to get through is via their slow ass chat or via phone queue hell. No one knows anything and none of the low level support dudes can do a damn thing for me.

I want to move my sites to the spiffy new servers that they installed 2 years ago but never migrated the old clients to. Yeah, that's right, the OLD CRAPPY clients who have been with this company since the get-go get the shitty server and shitty reseller program whilst the new clients get better plans, a better control panel and, well, better everything. Hell, I can't even sell a hosting plan anymore because the client can go straight to ITX and get a better plan with better features for less than I can sell it to them. Apparently ITX doesn't see the issue I have with that.

I asked to be moved back in November 2005 and as of today, nothing has happened. I'm very frustrated with them and I'm looking to change hosting. Hell, if I have to move everything myself then I may as well check out a new host, right?

I'd like to have suggestions for a new hosting service. I need a full service host (not any microsux shit, but all the database and scripting shit) with decent bandwidth and storage space for under $10/mo.

Behind the cut is my rant about all this:

<-begin rant->
I'm sick to death of being everyone's bitch. I'm sick of Earthstink lying to me and forcing me to deal with fucking Indians who don't speak English. I'm sick of ITX treating me like a second class citizen when I've been there longer than the asshole support guys I'm forced to deal with. I'm sick of the goddam mailman giving me attitude because HE got in trouble for not delivering my mail and my neighbors' mail in a timely fashion. I'm sick of the goddam bank making me jump through hoops for them to waive a fee that I shouldn't have to pay in the first place. I'm sick of being the pariah of Decatur because I had the audacity to have a disagreement with a neurotic, pathetic girl. I'm sick of calling the fucking plumber I paid $1400 for new plumbing and then she never shows up to fix the fucking leak that I've had since last fucking FALL. I'm sick of having friends who don't stay in touch - hey, if you move, I can't find you, get it? I'm sick of being disappointed. I'm sick of trying my very best and getting nothing but shit for it. I *do* try my best, you know. I may not succeed, but I DO try. I try to be helpful and generous, but it just never seems to be worth the effort. Fuck it. <-/end rant->
