Sony ImageStation is closing

[king2005]

Woah! That's an awesome deal!

I had to email bluehost last night cause I don't have that.. I'm wondering if they have a 2ed class of account now.. but I couldn't find any info... so I emailed them & will let people know what they say.

I only have 15gig of space not 300

I paid for 2yrs of hosting for under 200.00 & I haven't had any issues that I have noticed (as its only a personal site), but when there are issues, they send out an email to everyone stating what happened, why it happened, & how they fixed it. I have gotten many emails over the past 1.5yrs from them stating how they have upgraded this or that... I kept the emails incase anyone wants to see what they have been up to.

I'm expecting their reply today, they are usually really good at fast replies.

Speaking of Imagestation, has anyone ordered DVDs or CDs?

Both Robin and I did (she ordered the CDs and me the DVDs) and neither of us have received ours
I chatted online with someone last month and they said it would be sent out within the next week, then Robin called a little later and they told her the same thing.
Just today I sent them a email. It's been 2 months since I ordered!

Anyone else frustrated with IS?

"Customer Service" is a bit of a BAD JOKE with ImageStation!

In August I noticed a bunch of my Albums were "Not Available"!
After multiple "On Line" discussions, all promising "will be fixed in a week",
the albums slowly began to return.

I ordered my Archive DVD on September 4th ...
I lost track of how many times I opened an On Line Help "discussion" to find out WHERE it was ...
I started bugging them ONCE a WEEK in September ... the "excuse" and the promise of "we're working on it" was different every time ... those clowns have quite the Imaginations!

Just this week the DVD finally arrived! (Along with a duplication of about 130 4x6 Prints I ordered
with the DVD - they sent the photos right away in September.) I decided I was NOT going to try to tell 'em they'd duplicated the print order ...
I accept the extra prints as a THANKS for all my pain & suffering.

KEEP **BUGGIN** 'em ... sooner or later they're going to say "HEY - we're shut down ---
TOO Bad if your order isn't complete."
Get your stuff BEFORE that happens!

I ordered a CD also and don't have it yet? The transfer of pics went fine
and completed a long time ago. No charge on my credit card, but no CD
yet either.

I finally gave up and transferred my albums to Shutterfly last week. I never got my CD after "yelling" to them about it, over and over. They never charged me, but I never got anything, either. Once you make the move to Shutterfly, your albums are gone from Imagestation. I think I have all of those pictures, anyway, but I needed to be sure as Murphy, Zipper, Mimi and Lilly were all there and I can never take another picture of any of them.

I ordered a CD back in September and all I have is an e-mail order invoice.
I just e-mailed and asked if I'm ever going to actually get the CD.
