I fully agree with the previous reviewer.

Although I know my site used no more resources than any one of three sites I have on the very same Domain at HostGator, somehow this one at Super Green Hosting crossed their very low threshold and was suspended without any prior notification or warning.

The only options given to me are to get a "dedicated server" with their "trusted dedicated partner," or I was told that I need to rebuild my site.

And just how? I cannot access cPanel nor WordPress admin to do anything!

They have not yet bothered responding to this precise query.

In the near-year of running the site, I have never gotten even so much as a cent in affiliate commissions, so I am certainly not about to be paying well in excess of $100 a month for a "dedicated server."

They must hire satirical comedy writers for their suspension E-mails. Upon announcing the suspension, the next line in their E-mail was: "We hope that you understand our position in ensuring that we provide the best possible service. In order to continue to provide this high quality service...." And this was where they delivered their two options -- the dedicated server, or the impossible instruction to rebuild my site.

This is their best service, and I should be wanting them to continue to provide it???

Evidently I will not receive a refund (I think I am paid up until 2012) until this instruction is met: "Once you have made the switch to dedicated server, feel free to contact us at billing@justhost.com for a refund of your current Just Host account."

And then they close their E-mail with this utter ballsy offer:

"Introduce a friend to Super Green and receive $60! Please visit: http://www.SuperGreenHosting.com/affiliates."

As if I want to stab any friend in the back for $60 by convincing him or her to sign up with this company!

Pros and Cons

Pros	They did seem to have "down time" issues, but otherwise were comparable to other providers...I thought.
Cons	No warning account suspension; unresponsive to follow-up enquiry.

SuperGreen Sucks!

My account was just suspended. Here’s what the email says: “As you probably aware, here at SuperGreen we proactively monitor all our servers to ensure that our clients websites are loading as fast as possible at all times. During this routine monitoring we have found that your account is utilizing an excessive amount of system resources, and we have been forced to suspend your site as per our terms and
conditions ’10% CPU/Memory Policy’”.

Then what does unlimited bandwidth mean? Of course, they want me to upgrade to a dedicated server for $149 a month! I have asked for a refund. I don’t expect to get it.
