Things were going along swimmingly with my hosting contract until we got to their “process” for contract review upon account closure. I find the so-called process very annoying and time consuming. I recommend not using them unless you:

1. Don’t mind a 20+ email process.
2. Are willing to part with comments like “Received the fax [termination].. I will review with our billing department.. since the contract renewed for a year as you didn’t get the cancellation in by 1/11.”
3. Then when pressed: “I have made no statements regarding any amount of money.”

This is a lot harder than cancelling ISDN service at the phone company, my previous record. AOL in its heyday were ‘potsers’ in comparison. Am I a coiner for web use of this to be a variant of poseur with some potsy and Potsie thrown in? For networks, I note that it also has POTS elements. I found potzer at urban dictionary as a mispelling of patzer. “A person who plays for traps in a game of chess.” Maybe it is Net Actuate / VR Hosted that wins the potser comparison with AOL.
