Hawk Host vs. Hostwinds 2021

lately had to downgrade due to the Covid Situation to save costs where I can and Hawk Host were super helpful as always in assisting which triggered my intentions of writing a positive review as they did not resist or try to upsell me, but supported my actions.
Over the years I've opened more than 50 support requests with Hawk Host and have almost always received a response within 12 hours - and no later than 24 hours - even on weekends. I would consider Hawk Host to be extremely valuable and reliable, and good value for money.

a response from the big hosting providers. That's why I chose them. The server was down for about 30 minutes one month. The team explained they were upgrading the servers and the new server was having a problem with some coding on my site. They figured out the solution and got my site back up within a half-hour. The price speaks for itself, very cheap.

... you have to request it with a service ticket...
Everytime.. they keep asking for something different and the ticket gets closed...
Latest is to respond to email chain and put my PIN in the email???
Nice security practice....
If it comes down to HawkHost vs competitor.. ... I would say strongly consider the competitor

again, I told them to fix it everyday for 8 days and They DID not fix the issue which was caused by them, I was in a loss for more than $2500 usd when my website was offline. Now the hosting is cancelled and they are not even refunding the money I paid them I have tried everything to get the money back from them but they keep sending their TOS to me. It wasn't my fault that their server was faulty or whatever but I paid the price and lost a lot of money. I would have stayed there if they had fixed the VPS but I was tired of creating tickets and sending messages in live chat. I had started more than 10 conversations including tickets with them. After a while I filed BBB complaint against them and they only replied once and replied their TOS as they did before and ignored me on BBB and there were no further replies from them I paid over $1500 CAD, They are just holding my $500 hostage which I have in their balance and they are not refunding me the rest of the money which i spent. it was those a little longer than a month only. Now the only option I have is to file a case in a small claims court because it was their mistake that the website was having problems and it was not fixed and I waited a long time for it to get fixed Therefore I want a refund which is still not provided to me. My father and my grandmother passed away in 2020 and I am going through depression after all that still there are people who scam small business owners me for thier hard earned money. Hostwinds you made a mistake then accept it and give me my refund.
