Para los que sepan inglés, pueden leer sobre CIHOST en www.webhostingtalk.com. Es una de las empresas con la peor reputación de la industria, basta buscar en los foros las historias de terror de los que los utilizan. Menciono esto por que es de las empresas más mencionadas de manera negativa en esos foros, que son los mas grandes dedicados unicamente al web hosting (usuarios, vendedores y revendedores). De hecho cuando se trata de buscar info sobre servicios en inglés , es la mejor opción.

Un ejemplo tomado de esos foros (http://www.webhostingtalk.com./showt...ghlight=cihost):

C_I_Host: situation normal, all f***ed up
There are outstanding legal judgements against C_I_Host in amounts totalling over a quarter of a million dollars, with many more outstanding bills still being contested for a grand total of well over half a million dollars. Carol Faulkner, the CEO's mother, has been filing lawsuits against anyone and everyone she can, including me, who did $70 worth of business with them four years ago. I was one of three former customers sued in June, one TX lawyer I spoke with knew of 60-70 lawsuits she has filed. The first of those three recent cases filed against former customers was already dismissed by a judge, but needless to say it costs time and money to defend yourself against a lawsuit, even if the charges are baseless.

C_I_Host is in debt to several companies from which they purchased advertising and other services, didn't pay, and then filed lawsuits claiming poor service to delay payment. All of this is part of the public record if you investigate the court dockets in the Dallas and Fort Worth courts. There are also a number of federal lawsuits pending against C_I_Host, there have been 179 complaints filed with the BBB in the past three years, and 14 with the TX Attorney General in the last two or so.

I wouldn't exactly call that a stable situation. See this article:

Su reputación es tan mala en la industria que en la mayoria de los foros de hosting bannean la palabra "cihost" o "CI host", etc. y se puede encontrar referencias a ellos bajo el alias "see eye" host.
