So it seems to me that PB are beings dicks again. After realizing that gouging everyone for $400 a year was non starter they restored free hosting for a while. Then we got the `hey you have too many pics for free so cough up a monthly fee or reduce the number of pics' so I deleted the unneeded stuff. Now I'm getting the `hey you are using more than 25MB of hosting bandwidth per month so you need to pay up'. I don't know how the rest of you feel but these people have just pissed me off to the point of no return. |

Nick, I've been getting those emails for months. I just ignore them since I haven't used Botophucket since they tried gouging us a couple of years ago. I wouldn't use their service again after what they tried to pull - there are plenty of other options. I use Dropbox. |

Chris, check your spam. I'd be willing to be you have hate mail from them. Unless Canada is exempt? |

I went on there and deleted a bunch of photos that I didnt want. I still get the "your over the limit" emails and announcements when I log in. I just hit the dissmiss button and nothing ever happens to my albums. I think they are just trying con people who get nervous and buy a package. |

I just pay $2.50/month for PB, always have. Never got threatened, never lost service. They did really screw up the interface, it was much better before, but I rarely use it anymore. It was almost impossible to log in for a while too because all the popups would prevent the login box from appearing, but that's fixed now. I just need my existing photos to stay there until I quit these forums altogether. I must have 2000 links to pictures on these forums, I'd never be able to move them. |

LOL I sent them a reply of "Go Fuck yourselves " and they replied back "please send all inquiries to our support email xxx" so I sent that addy a reply of "Eat shit and die" haven't heard anything back yet!
I know it's silly but it felt good to send them back what's really on my mind. |
