Q.
How do you handle technical support?
A. There is
a link on nearly every page of our site that will take you to our online
Technical Support Request Form. This form MUST be used for all support
requests. This form contains information that helps us to distinguish you
from our other clients so that we can better assist you.

Does
it take a long time for you to answer support requests?
A. Most general
support requests are answered within just a few hours while more complicated
issues/problems may take longer to address, none the less we stay in contact
with you of the progress being made. If any major problems occur with our
servers, we can assure you, they are being addressed before you even contact
us. Sometimes things take longer to fix than what we would like but we
can assure you that our servers are our first priority and any problems
are handled immediately.

Q.
What about billing, how do I pay for my account?
A. When you
sign up for an account you will have the choice to pay for your account
using a check, or credit card or paypal. All credit card and check paying
clients are setup on recurring billing, this means that your account will
automatically be debited each month on the anniversary of the account setup
date.

Q.
What if I want to cancel my account?
A. This is easy
too. You enter the support Area and select Cancel An Account. Complete
the requested information and submit, and your request will be handled
promptly. Unlike other companies on the Internet, we do not put you through
a bunch of red tape to get your account canceled - we believe that is a
tacky way to do business.

Q.
I understand that my credit card or checking account will automatically
be billed each month, but what happens if I do not have enough funds to
cover the charges on my credit card or checking account?
A. Most people
know how much credit they have on their credit cards or funds in their
banking account and we count on that. We charge a $5.00 processing fee
for each credit card that is declined and a $25.00 fee for charge back
or returned checks. To avoid this fee, send us an email prior to your billing
date and tell us when we can process your payment (within a reasonable
time frame) to avoid these fees. When a credit card is declined or check
is returned, we send you an email and provide you with 24 hours to submit
a valid form of payment. Forms for changing your payment method are available
in the Account Management Area. If we do not receive a valid form of payment,
your account will be removed from our system. It's all about communication.
If you will communicate with us things can run smoothly.

Q.
How does your 3 days money back guarantee work?
A. In the event
that you become unhappy with our services within 3 days of your account
activation, simply visit our support page and select Cancel An Account
and provide us with the necessary information. Providing that the cancellation
is within the 3 days period, we will credit your account. We DO NOT refund
annual fees. We ask that all clients try us out for 3 days before paying
for their account for a year in advance, this way we can be sure that you
are satisfied with our services.

Q.
What type of support do you not provide?
A. Although
we do not provide technical support for 3rd party software, scripts, or
other software that you may utilize to build your site, this includes:
front page, ASP, any html editors, any cgi scripts, however, we aren't
rendering you completely helpless. Slip us a support request using our
online support request form and we will do our utmost to assist you and
if we can't, we will guide you in the right direction for assistance. If
we can not assist you, we have implemented an Extended Support Section
where you can obtain quotes from reasonable and reliable vendors who can
assist you.

Q.
How do you deal with accounts that have violated your policies?
A. While most
issues can be resolved between OnTimeHost It and the account in question,
spamming violations are controlled by the backbone. In the event that the
backbone receives a complaint due to spamming, they delete the account
in question without any prior notice to either the account holder or Web
Host It. We have VERY STRICT policies regarding spamming and will not tolerate
it at all on our servers. If you have been deactivated by another hosting
service for spamming complaints, it is highly possible that you will be
deactivated on our servers in the event that you continue such activity.
Our 3 days money back guarantee DOES NOT apply to ANY Policy Violators.

Q.
What about Domain Registration fees? Are these fees included in the price
of the hosting fees?
A. No we do
not pay any registration fees for any accounts. We would go broke and be
out of business if we did this. It is your responsibility to pay your registration
fees. You can visit our Domain Registration FAQ's section to view more
information in regards to fees and the registration process.

Q.
Speaking of registering or transferring domain names, do you handle that
for us?
A. We will handle
the transfer of your existing domain name to our servers at your request
when you sign up (only with Network Solutions). We also now register domain
names, and for less than what Network Solutions charges. When you activate
an account with us, you can also register a new domain name. The fee is
$19.95 per year. Please visit our Domain
Name Registration page for more information.
