  I've been with Pair for years and have never had any issues whatsoever. There, and having said that I've probably just totally jinxed it ;-)

    I am pretty happy with Pair but one thing they did which really upset me was running ads on domains that I hadn't configured yet. I thought that was really unprofessional since I had paid them to host my domain.
