Lutonwebs would like to inform all its clients and customers, that it is moving all its operations to a new server provider. The existing contract with our datacentre client was becoming to expensive to maintain, and recent performance had declined. We fealt that we were unable to provide the level of service we aim to give our customers and as a result have ceased all operations with our current provider. Statuary 1 months notice had been given to our client on the 18th April, terminating our contract with our current provider on the 18th May.
Between the 18th April and 28th April Lutonwebs had begun to transfer customers domains and websites to our new provider. Roughly %50 of sites had been migrated, with our biggest clients taking priority. However during the eve of 28th April, due to a technical hitch with our current provider, our contract was terminated in error due to the incorrect termination date being keyed into there system. Instead of the 18th being keyed in the 28th was entered, and as a result the system terminated our contract, all our data was wiped from the datacentre.
The remaining 50% of customers sites have in this case been deleted and all information has been lost. Where clients have purchased our backup service, all your data is safe and your site should now be back up and running with our new host. For those clients who did not take advantage of our backup service, Lutonwebs would like to apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.
Lutonwebs is pursuing action against the affected datacentre, and will update all customers of our progress.
*******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
Once Lutonwebs started the migration process to our new host, due to cheaper running costs, and a greater scope of services we are able to provide. Lutonwebs is pleased to announce to all existing clients & customers, that we are now able to offer lower priced domains, and cheaper hosting, with better rewards, benefits and customer service.
All existing LutonWebs clients should register a new account with our Brand new company 1 Stop Hosting UK.
To compensate our customers, we will be giving every customer 1 years free hosting added to there existing expiry date. All you need to do is re register an account by following this link entering your email address, select NO you are not registered.
