Reading these blogs and other internet reports I am reluctant to pay anything as it appears they cannot be trusted to take correct amount As a Local Councillor I want to use every weapon in the armory to hold them to account Hi has anyone a UK contact for these people

I'm literally fuming as a result of the service I have received from these scam artists. £150 taken from my account without permission for services I don't want or need. The rude tosser on the end of the phone made it clear I haven't a hope in hell for a refund. Please do yourself a favour and avoid these chumps Apologies if I have submitted a comment already.

Started of ok, then the problems with page loading, network timeouts and site unavailability started. Support tickets took on average 2 days to be replied to, and stated each time everything was working correctly. Currently both sites have been unavailiable for 15 days. Next to usless cutomer support and hosting. Avoid at all costs. Regarding Streamline net.

Refunds have been refused on the grounds that 28 days have elapsed since my order was processed. As the request was processed on Sept 21st 2008 and we are now only at October 1 2008, calendars are obviously calibrated differently in darkest Derbyshire... Is there a specific ombudsman regulating web hosting agencies? Will contact BBC on this matter The above website has also been upgraded to the Unlimited use tariff instead of the Home tariff as per my specific request.

They automatically upgraded my account from a trial to their most expensive package without my knowledge, and refuse to give a refund. Don't forgot everyone to register your complaint with BBC watchdog as well as write to Derek Rudeforth, so we can get these cowboys closed down before they rip off more people.

I was with streamline for about a year and was quite happy to a point up until two weeks ago. I have had a frustrating time with streamline because they do not provide the services that I paid for and do they care, do they hell. The most stupid, ignorant idiots I have had the displeasure of dealing with. Through frustration I have cancelled all dealing with streamline.net - luckily I don't have to worry about transferring my url name as I have another one which all those who need to know, know. Prior to cancelling I deemed it particulary impossible to get the services I paid for, nor would they acknowledge a refund....which made the site unworkable. I am at present dealing with Trade Descriptions and my credit card company to try to recoup my losses. In fact they should change their name to 'John Waynes Web Hosting Services' because Dollamore is a cowboy. As soon as I get contact details for him directly I will publish them on the web. Buyers beware. I cannot believe what I am reading about Streamline.net, and wish very much that I had read these prior to handing over credit card details to them.
