Headline: Afrihost suspended my active website 10 days early after an invoice dispute

I am extremely disappointed with the level of service and lack of basic comprehension from the Afrihost support and accounts team today.

I have a hosting package for bizwhatwhat.com. Since I am migrating at the end of the month, I requested a downgrade to "Domain Parking" to be effective from 1 April. When I received an invoice today for NEXT month's hosting, I contacted support to ensure I wouldn't be debited for a service I am cancelling.

Instead of simply fixing the billing, a staff member (Neha D) immediately processed the downgrade, effectively killing my website 10 days before the end of the paid period. I have paid for hosting until the end of March, yet my site is now suspended.

To make matters worse, the chat agent I spoke with (Ref: #OPP-***4) completely failed to understand that the hosting was active 30 minutes ago and only went down because of their internal error. They are now wasting my time talking about Cloudflare and nameservers instead of admitting they deactivated my package prematurely.

I had an important meeting at 10:00 AM and my business has been made to look unprofessional because Afrihost cannot distinguish between "immediate" and "month-end" requests.

I want my hosting restored immediately until the end of March as paid.
