Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Thats what the thread was about, the Accout being suspended.

    They seem to be back up and running now though.

    It hit the Sunday Paper today. They were made a mockery of as the company (PC World, Dixons and Currys) seem to be promosing websites for years yet nothing materialises.

    Anyway, they moved host which is why its back up and the "lawyers" are sorting out the issues with the old host.

    Nearly killed me inside, but i had to spend money in Dixons/PCWorld/Currys for the first time in 11 years over the Christmas - its the only tech shop in Blanchardstown. Had to bath and scrub myself rigorously afterwards.

    Swore i'd never give them money again after they made my first PC buying experience and aftersales service so painful.

    Why didn't you buy online?

    Looks like its been hacked rather than exprired, no hosting company would put that message up ???

    Its very common. Iv had to inform clients before that it would be done unless they paid there bills. A big company like PC World making millions and they wouldn't pay a few bob to sort out hosting?

    They deserve the shame and so do other companies who ignore bills for services.

    Well if a company put that up i wouldnt give them my services again...but then again if i had paid them properly in the first place...

    duely noted...

    Why? You got billed, you didn't pay. Therefore, they suspend your account for not paying your bills - and a message is displayed online giving the reason.

    The majority of hosting companies do it (and have software that does it) and designers / coders also do it but not as much (due to not having access).

    Ah its our friends at H365 that are giving all the grief to PC World. I would have thought PC World would have hosted in the UK!
