Easyspace nightmare!!

Post by Dickie »

Anyone else having problems with Easyspace??
I'm having a nightmare with them & wondered if they're going ti.sup??

Can anyone recommend a good mail hosting company, purely for an average mail box?
Thanks

Doesn't your ISP provide one?

I know mine does, although I don't use it - I still use Hotmail as a supplementary - but couldn't recommend it since Microsoft took it over.

Never had a problem with Hotmail, and I don't think Microsoft will be going ti.sup any time soon!

Most of the free ones never have a big enough mail box for photos etc. I hate not having a big enough box for a few photos & not everyone has iCloud etc.

At work people use a veriety of software on tablets, smart phones etc quite a PITA really!!
A quick email with PDFs or photos normally does the trick....... :thumbright:

I find it unresponsive, sometimes it appears to ignore mouse clicks, it often misinterprets mouse clicks, (click on mark message as read and it opens it instead) some of the commands that used to be easily available are now hidden - and although I eventually found them it's inconvenient.

I did complain, (that took about a week - see next para) and they just said "update your browser", at the time it was the latest version.

I just clicked on their feedback button, this is what I got: -

"We can't get the feedback form right now
It might be that your PC isn't connected to the Internet or that our servers are down. Wait a bit, and then try again."

Basically it's a pile of poo since the change.

The latest annoying thing it does, (and it does this with the first email I open every time I use it), click on an email to read it, the email opens and then a few seconds later it closes and goes back to the inbox for a few seconds before re-opening the original email. All the other problems I listed before are still occurring too, it really is a pile of poo.

I tried to inform them of the problem via the feedback form, guess what - , "We can't get the feedback form right now

I've got three machines here I just tried it with, over 4 browsers AND the feedback form and it's incredibly responsive and the form works.............

Edit:

Dickie, are you looking for storage space or a host for a domain/email?
