1Grid blocking my domains and emails for no reason

last night around 12pm my 11 domains passwords were changed and websites taken down by 1grid My monthly charges were not outstanding and this is now the 2nd month in a row they have done this. Last month I was told by 1grid tech my internet service provider blocked my websites and thats why I cannot acces my cpnel and emails and websites were down. I find this ridiculous if so would it not be for them to unblock and solve and not 1grid that did a few things on their side and it was back up. I logged a ticket twice last nignt and chose the hosting department but their system keeps sending it to billing dep. I have received my ticket closed from their billing dep this morning saying all is active and no issues. But my sites and emails are still down. I used my gmail to send a new ticket as I cannot access any of my business emails and have had no response that was hours ago. We cannot be down like this with no explanation every month and then get some generic response when they fix what they broke. I originally joined web africa years ago and was passed over to what is now 1grid. I feel that if a business is so lucky to just be handed a huge client base its their responsibility to treat these client as web africa did. If there were some issue with my account why do I not get any notifications from 1grid? I only know this was happening because around midnight my emails started alerting me that passwords have been changed. Now I would have thought I had been hacked if this hadnt previously happened as close as last month with 1grid. And I was not given any specific reason besides them passing blame to my internet provider (which I might add my internet provider was needed to be contacted in order to resolve the problem)

This issue has been resolved very efficiently and with great service and friendliness. Its unfortunate that in order to find the gems of service at 1grid I had to post on hello peter. However a 5star post will be posted for the 2 staff members of 1grid that managed to assist me and solve my problem.

Last night my account was blocked again while I understand the issue & accept their explanation. I am now once again struggling to get this get a reply in order to fix it again.

I responded to their support email to ask to reopen the tick as this has happened again.
After the 1st review yesterday I received very fast responses & numerous updates via phone calls to advise on the process which is fantastic. But now since updating the post and praising their service we are back to square one. hours go by and not even one reply to three emails.

While I understand they are busy and I am not their only client. I do expect that atleast one of the emails atleast be acknowledged to advise they are on it
