Bandwith Limit Exceeded
« on: 26 April 2011, 10:58:00 »
Ironwind seems to be offline because they managed just that.
For one, I find it great that they seem to have this much traffic, but I find it sad, that they actually chose a server where they can run into a problem like this...

Will this be fixed shortly?

I hate to say it, but they may have been hacked again.

No, the site was not hacked. We just used up our monthly a lot bandwidth before the end of the month. They gave us some extra to get by until the end of April.

Ironwindmetals Bandwidth exceeded again 4/27 @ 2:45 EST. This combined with not receiving any replying emails from ones i sent 5 and 3 days ago; I'm really getting frustrated with this company [tickedoff]

@ Speck

would this be affecting your email service as well ?  I've been trying to get a response from Melissa since about the 19th April.

you have to e-mail them way more than once if you want a response, one e-mail doesn't do it. 3 or 4 times is sometimes necessary.

yeah, that's how they operate pretty much. it's not good at all. try e-mailing mike noe directly, he's a bit better with e-mail, particularly if there's a problem with a mini

I got emails back from them right away--after I noticed they were in my SPAM folder...
But yes, Mr. Noe is the man.

We will be working on some other options for contacting IWM about issues. It's not ready to rollout yet, a few weeks away

If you look at it, exceeding the bandwith is a kind of good thing. It means people are going to the site and possibly buying.

I placed an order a couple of days ago and emailed Mike Noe about an issue.  Had return email and issue resolved 1st thing the next morning US time.  Very pleasing for my 1st order with IWM which was quite substantial.
