I tried logging into my Control Panel and it didn't work so I sent an e-mail to them. I received an e-mail stating that my hsoting was shut down due to too many resources being taken up.
I had checked my stats the day before and I didn't even reach up to 10% of the specifications they showed in their advertisement.
I'm just hoping that a situation like that never occurs again.

This is why you should not go for those that offer ridiculous amount of space/bandwidth for a very low price. The best and in my opinion more customer-oriented companies know where to set the borders. Not to get me wrong, I offer really low prices and don't sacrifice the amount of resources I'm using, Most of the ones that operate those type of companies seem to 'oversell.' From this one should draw their own opinion. This isn't always resellers doing this either.
