Hosting delay normal this time of the year?

Hi, I don't want to sound a bit impatient here but I have been waiting for my hosting plan to get approved for 2 days short of weeks now but I realise that it is the holiday season so I am wondering if anyone know delay is normal for this time of the year.

I opened my subdomain hosting request on Thursday, December 21. It was one of those l2p.net domains so I thought it shouldn't take long. It says that if you don't get approved after 5 to 7 days you should contact lifelesspeople to verify tbat your application is received. I kind of didn't see this contact part at the time so I opened a support ticket. Oh well.

The support ticket was opened on 28 Dec 2006 05:33 PM but it is still open at the moment.

I read one of the posts here and someone said that it can take to 2 weeks to activate the hosting if there is a delay. I know it havn't been two weeks yet but I am getting impatient here because I am kind of in serious water here if I don't get my website up soon. I offered my school to host a huge history project on my website. I have been getting entires in my emails daily and these students all demand to see the website. I have been using different excuses to put them off but I fear there is going to be a riot soon if I don't show them the site soon so they can verify that their project is on the site.

School is going to reopen soon and I fear that my hosting application will still not be approved then. Then it will be really embrassing for me cause I said I would do it but I don't have the website. Everyone will be really pissed off and especially the teacher. I will become the scapegoat then..

So uh, I am just wondering if delay is normal this time of the year. I don't want to sound ungrateful. Thanks.

Well, it seems Trel (the admin Wink

) is really busy at the moment.

Ah, I see. Do you know if he can approve web hosting sometime before this Sunday? If not I have to look for a Plan B fast or I will be in deep trouble. Thanks.

You relied on a free host for something important? That might be okay for us who know the reliability of this host but for someone new... Smile

I guess you can put a support ticket up with high priority and state your reason in more detail to help.

Give it a few more days. Usually things like that don't take long, but it uppears that Trel is missing in action, and he's the only one who does these things.
