Jannique Campbell is priceless Jannique Campbell is priceless! Patient, Personable, and very professional. In a very short time she resolved a long time problem I was having. And, she is a Campbell on top of everything. One of my hero's is the 19th century theologian, Alexander Campbell. She has to be related to that remarkable man.

Email migration failure From Westhost: (Begin Westhost email) We are writing to inform you of an important change regarding our Email Hosting services. As part of our commitment to providing you with the best possible service, we are in the process of migrating our Email Hosting services to a new and improved platform. Please note that the migration process is essential to ensure uninterrupted access to your email services. To ensure a smooth transition, we kindly request your cooperation in completing the migration process. (End Westhost email) Over the course of several days, I (along with Westhost support) have tried several migration attempts, and to this writing, all attempts have failed. And now I have no access to my email account. (To his credit, Senior Support Engineer Connor is great in persevering on my behalf, but it's to no avail.) So contrary to the aforementioned email, the transition was not "smooth" (as it's not yet complete) and my service has been interrupted. To top things off, Westhost has no active social media presence to update customers to the status of any problems on their end. (Their last post on X, fka Twitter, was 24 July, 2020.) I mean, what good is social media if you're not going to even use it? This is out of character for what is otherwise a very good hosting service. So with that I can only hope this email migration issue is a one-off, otherwise, I will have to consider, ahem, "migrating" to another hosting service. **UPDATE 15/04/2024** After a bit of collaboration, the email migration has been a success. But, as a result of the migration, the third-party email is not working (sigh) so, after writing a ticket, I am now waiting for this new issue to be resolved. In fairness, Westhost is incredibly busy with this migration issue and if you write a ticket, they *will* eventually get back to you. My *only* frustration, however, is that they promise a smooth, uninterrupted transition, when that was not the case. My tips to you, Westhost: Please consider either reactivating your social or make customers aware of your status page (status(dot)westhost(dot)com) on your home page. And never overpromise ("...uninterrupted access..."; "...smooth transition..."). It's always better to underpromise and overdeliver. Thank you and kind regards.

Super support from Daniel N worked with Daniel N. today to do a domain transfer. I've never done one before and he made it simple and easy for a geriatric site manager to understand and implement. Super support. Very responsive and helpful.

Did a really stupid thing Did a really stupid thing. While cleaning up some really old email accounts, I deleted a very active email account. Support was able to restore it! Only one possible improvement -- I don't mind waiting my turn for support, but it's near impossible to NOT do anything else. It would be really helpful if you could find a way ring a bell or flash the text window when the tech is finally available.

Daniel N was so helpful Daniel N was so helpful. He stayed with me for two hours (!) while I worked with my site hosting company to resolve several serious errors on my website. He knew what he was doing, even when my web hosting company did not, and was very patient and supportive to resolve things that were well above my 'tech grade'. The feeling when you read the words "Everything fixed now" is such a relief. Many thanks!
