poor service

I have had the missfortune of being a customer of starband for 5 years. There is just no other options being in rural Texas. Hughs net will not even talk to me since it is a business and I offer it to my guests and Hughes wants $15.00 a month for each of my spaces that I rent even if no one is in the space.

Star Band is REALLY REALLY POOR. They will throttle you down even if you have your modoem turned OFF. The orginial contract said UNLIMITED band with but they have change the rules without telling you.

IF YOU HAVE ANY OTHER OPTION, STAY AWAY FROM STARBAND.

Email/Site Blocking

This site is blocking emails to their customers accounts from sites without any proof. I received an email to advise my email had been rejected as it was listed in a negative database as a Home Internet Connection. The server in fact is in a cluster, in the largest Data Centre in Europe and has never been a home connection.

I clicked on the link to report the error:

Email rejected because 94.**.**.1 is listed as dynamic by http://www.starband.net/removalrequest/default.asp?IP=94.**.**.1)

This is the message I got:

HTTP 403.6 - Forbidden: IP address rejected
Internet Information Services

I could only access their site by going through an Amercian Proxy. Most domain admins would not waste their time doing what I have so I would advise to steer well clear.
