my dad killed my website - he forgot that he gave me his cc# to build him his site/pay for hosting over on dreamhost. He disputed the charges and thereby killed his site and all of mine since Dreamhost thinks that a TOS violation. Thanks dad.
that sucks.. but ant the sites hosted under two different domains ? - Peter Dawson
omg, sarah. :(( - Hao Chen
Oh geez that's harsh... - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
@Peter - all my domains were hosted at dreamhost, all were wordpress installs. I knew I didn't dispute any charnges, but after I finally got a response to a support ticket a day later I found out that someone did. After some investigation, it turned out to be my dad...who's now paying big time since I have to move 4 websites to a new host, wordpress installs and all. - Sarah Perez
Oh Dads. Dreamhost still stinks, though! :-P - Mark Trapp
as a dad of a college age online active kid, ouch is a good response :) - mike "glemak" dunn
yikes, that sux - Shey
wow, that really sucks Sarah. Good luck on the moves. - Rob Diana
Think of it this way, DreamHost is the suck. Now you can get a better host. It's just like moving, you get rid of all the junk and you come out cleaner, leaner and meaner after the experience. - Jason Shultz via twhirl
That's a comedy of errors; I'm sure it's tough on you. I hope you had some offsite backup. Hey, I need to go back up my blog now... - Daniel J. Pritchett
Sarah, that sucks! I was wondering what happened to your site as of lately. If you need any assistance moving the domains or with the wordpress installs, please feel free to drop me an email anytime - mikefruchter@gmail.com. - Mike Fruchter

@mike totally emailing you - Sarah Perez
yikes! - Mattb4rd
the issue here shouldn't be the credit card dispute. I think the bigger issue is that DH has a one-strike, no questions asked, don't let the door hit you on the way out policy. Mistakes happen, and it seems odd that the DH TOS don't care. - Shane Perris
Your site is back http://www.sarahintampa.com/ :) - LouCypher
Liking now, because sarahintampa.com is back online. - Mike Fruchter
