Hey let's all pay for pre-sales questions, Shall we? Do we really have to pay?

"I'll do it for my hourly rate, or I'll do it for free, but I will never do it for cheap."

Brilliant!  I'm appropriating that.

To the subject:
Only $75 to talk to a CEO!    You try to find that deal at one of the other guys!  I just checked the MicroSoft website and Bill isn't offering to talk to us for $75!
Let's all do that!  But I'm more important than the rest of you, so I'm going to make it $250.
The last thing I want is customers bothering me with questions.  Seriously, what do they think, I'm working for them or something?
Oh ... wait...

Sorry but it's hard to take this serious.

I can't believe I'm actually going to say something nice about the guy, but at least he's an animal lover

LOL... It makes no sense that he is, someone like that cares about things and cares about duping people.  Everyone is completely wrong about his actual name, i guess he uses Kris to throw people off? but the real partners are listed right there.  I'd dust off an old machine and get digging a little further but i left it alone, found enough info.  Anyone that is looking to take any possible legal action will now have some more info to go off of and not a PO box

I've open tickets, bug reports, and still nowhere. I think I'm about done messing around with Hostbill

Hey wouldn't it be nice if he lived right down the street, and you could just knock on his door, and punch him in the nose when he answered?

Now that, would be worth $999 a year.

My brother will be in Poland tomorrow.    I should ask him to go to the listed address and see what he finds...

Please do.  Absolutely if he's passing by, i think it's ABSOLUTELY worth the ask

He'll be in Warsaw, which is a little ways away from the city Hostbill is apparently located in.  (And it wouldn't surprise me if Kris has put a fake address in the whois.)

i never did google the address, i just looked up their business registration in another post.  That place sure donm't look like an office.  It's possible they are there on a cheap lease.  It'd be interesting to know.  To bad streetview doesn't go in any further to look at the actual address

I've never heard of a company anywhere world wide charging to ask a CEO a question.   This is one of the funniest things i've ever seen.  I honestly thought you made it up even with the screenshot.

This guys is bi-polar, eccentric, a kid or what? This must be a joke, isn't it?

It's honestly things like that that remind me why we do what we do (my business that is).  We work really hard on customer service.  Go out of our way to help customers and talk to them.  If we ever picked a business model to charge to speak to a CEO, i think my customers would laugh my company off and move to the next in line.  He needs to grow up and realize he's not important enough to think charging money to speak to him is a privilege.  Maybe when he earns some respect from his customers and becomes a reputable company.  Maybe, just maybe he can be cocky.  Until then, i don't care to speak to him, i just want software that functions without a roller coaster ride. 

This kind of stuff is why as i've said in another thread that we're already preparing for an exit strategy.  Planning to move over the Blesta.  We'll continue to use our hostbill license for something or start another venture, but not for my 17 year old business that i've worked hard on over the years.

Maybe this is the reason: http://edition.cnn.com/2013/05/14/tech/innovation/tim-cook-coffee-auction

This is megalomaniac and i 100% sure that money will not go to charity, will be to buy more mirror...
