Sven, I just tried to read the replies to my parting post in your forum for
server 3 but can't reach your site. Is the whole kaboodle down now?

Nice idea Tina, but seeing as it's free, i'm uncomfortable giving you guys
my credit card details. I might want to upgrade in future, if so, then that
is the time to ask for payment details, there is no need at this time. It's
a lot of trust to put in you. It's the "three month" thing too. What happens
when that's up? Do you start charging unless I renew my free status? Plus,
you ask for an awful lot of contact information. You could get all you need
from my domain registration.

Your sign up raises many questions, asks for a lot of trust straight away
and leaves me inclined to turn down your kind offer.....

The order/account setup software (ModernBill) that we use doesn't appear to
give a way for us to offer free accounts unless we specify "3 months" any
other term and it wanted to charge .333333. I assure you, the account is
free for as long as we offer free hosting...which has been a very long time.

We don't store credit card information on file, even for our paying
customers. Any information submitted for payment is sent straight to the
bank. I'm not sure why ModernBill is requiring that you submit your cc info
for a "$0" charge...but I definitely will look into it and post back when I
find out.

On another note, thanks for alerting me of this. It did seem a bit odd that
we've been heavily promoting our free accounts and have yet only had MAYBE 6
signups. I'm thinking if the order form is asking for cc info...that would
be a big scare factor. I know it would scare me!

I would think that's the problem Tina, it's what put me off I must admit.
I'm not adverse to online commerce, we are users of E-Bay and shop online
quite a bit. But caution is our watchword when it comes to giving out our CC
/ pesonal information. It's strictly on a "need to know" basis. If you do
manage to sort it out please let us know. I'm sure if you have a quick, easy
sign up for you frre account it will act as a gateway to your pay plans as
peoples needs increase away from the basic free hosting package.
Perhaps if you stick to the info available from a domain whois search
you'll do better. In fact, it would be a good way to a, collect information
about your customers and b, confirm identity.

keep us informed......


Les and Claire
