This was my site. One day in May, I couldn't log in. So I moved to a new site. I wish i could redirect viewers to my new site. I had a topcities account 2 years and I didn't do anything wrong. Just one day I was kicked off!

Site was fine for a year or two. NOW I cannot get in. Password denied. Forum (info) not operational. No contact possible. "Password sent to your e-mail" they say. Not true. So I start to look eleswhere.

This host is the worst I've seen and been to yet. I shouldn't have to say anymore, just one thing... DON'T USE THIS HOST!

I once tried to register an account on TopCities, and while it worked well enough at first, it suddenly failed to recognize my password later on, and this was when I'd just logged on! I went in and was trying to access the file uploading options when it asked for my login details again, and then all of a sudden, I found myself unable to log into my account again.
As others have pointed out here already, they never answer emails from clients at the service, and when trying the option to retrieve a lost password, it just didn't work. If there's anything I appreciate in a webhosting service, it's good customer service, and sadly, TopCities offers none, which is a leading reason why I wouldn't even suggest this server for building a website on.

I recently discovered two of my sites hosted by TopCities had disappeared. I sent several e-mails to tech support and have received no response at all. I highly recommend this outfit not be used. I also discovered that TopCities will remove your site if it has no activity - why?? Anyway.... no response from tech support and no warning about sites disappearing don't leave me with a warm fuzzy.

Don't waste your time registering for an account. You won't recieve an account confirmation e-mail with your password. Several days later I looked over their FAQ's. It tells you to choose "lost password" if you havent recieved your confirmation. I tried it, still no account confirmation. I give this host an F-

I used to be on this site. Every 6 months my website would be deleted. Then they brought in the bandwidth counter. By 2pm every day I was exceeding my daily bandwith and the site was not available. By the 15th of the month I was exceeding my monthly bandwidth and my site was not available for the rest of the month. They never answer emails and suport is non existent.

I signed up for this host and they were quite stable until a while ago. My site and a couple others were deleted for an unknown reason. I as well as the other members still help in the member forum but are no longer hosted with topcities. They weren't too reliable and I personally wouldn't recommend them. They were ok at one point but I lost faith in this host. Medium to slow loading speeds as well as non existant admin support. Members who help in the forums deserve some credit for the free support they handle.

I rate Topcities very low because they delete websites with absolutely NO warning and will NEVER answer emails or give an explanation. Apart from this very major failing, they would be great. They took down my site and put a notice on my site that I had exceeded bandwidth, although my own detective work showed I had not. Indeed my site NEVER re-appeared although if it had simply exceeded bandwidth it should have re-appeared the next month.
DON'T USE THEM!!!
