That's incorrect.

The SLA credit is worth filing. The current SLA is not for 4 hours, it's for
46 mins. You don't have to fill out paper work either, you can do it all
through orbit. The credit is proportional to the time you were outline, so
the longer you were down, the larger the credit.

Most people don't brother to file a ticket for it. Notice they certainly
didn't remind you to do so in the outage description. They know most
customer don't know they have that right.

I'm just glad I left when they had the last major outage.

SLA credit is, you will get 0.005% back of your monthly hosting if they are
down for say 4 hours out of about 720 hours per month.  You fill out a lot
of paperwork and get clients calling angrily and get like $20 credit for
that month hosting!

Also, watch this, because even after they say you get the credit, they
sometimes forget to tell accounting and you never actually get it.

My current providers turns off the main power once a month to verify backup
systems are working properly, like all major ISP's should.

Check the archives for this list for more information on their last major
outage that caused me to leave.
