How did you find that out, I've not had an email?


Dear Sir/Madam,

Due to a database error earlier last week are re-issuing all accounts with
new passwords:

userid: ...
password: ...
domain: ...

Although this will get you back into the FTP server, Email Controller and
Stats Controller will be down for several more days whilst we update their
authentication modules.

If you have any questions please email sales@portland.co.uk

Regards,
Portland Sales


Now I have new passwords for the two accounts I never use...

Has anyone been succesful in deleting a portland account? Or do I just have to wait until they stop their free services too... Rolling Eyes

I received multiple emails, but they didn't all come at the same time. It'll take them a while to send them all out.

I pay Portland for their enhanced web hosting, they guaranteed me a 99.5% service level.
After several months I've found this to be a lie, my site is now down for the second time.
Portland also promised me a new support email address for enhanced hosting customers, months later and this still hasn't appeared.
I tried Portlands free hosting and it was so bad it was unuseable so I upgraded to their enhanced hosting and its awful as well.

Don't use Portland Communications.
