Official Response to MattHosting

Important information regarding the MattHosting situation

Statement from IHOS Cloud Management

We are writing to address recent public statements and claims made by an individual identifying himself as Matt Chmela in relation to the ihos.cloud project and our hosting services. We believe it is important to provide our community with accurate information regarding this situation.

The ihos.cloud project has always been committed to transparency, professionalism, and maintaining the highest standards of service for our users. We take all business relationships and contractual obligations seriously.

Background Information

In early 2024, ihos.cloud entered into a hosting service agreement with MattHosting, a service operated by Matt Chmela. This agreement was established to provide additional hosting capacity for our growing user base and to ensure service reliability.

The agreement included specific terms regarding:

  • Service level requirements and uptime guarantees
  • Payment schedules and billing procedures
  • Data protection and security standards
  • Termination clauses and dispute resolution procedures

Throughout the duration of our business relationship, we maintained detailed records of all communications, service performance metrics, and financial transactions.

Issues Encountered

Over the course of our business relationship with MattHosting, several significant issues arose that ultimately led to the termination of our agreement:

Service Reliability Issues

Multiple instances of unplanned downtime exceeding the agreed-upon service level agreements, affecting our users' services and our reputation.

Communication Breakdowns

Repeated failures to respond to critical support requests and maintenance notifications in a timely manner, as required by our service agreement.

Contractual Obligations

Failure to meet several key contractual obligations, including security standards and data backup requirements that are essential for our users' data protection.

Our Response and Actions Taken

In response to these ongoing issues, ihos.cloud management took the following measured and professional steps:

Documented Communication

We provided multiple written notices regarding service issues and contractual violations, allowing reasonable time for resolution.

Alternative Solutions

We worked to identify alternative hosting solutions to minimize disruption to our users while attempting to resolve issues with MattHosting.

Contract Termination

When issues could not be resolved, we exercised our contractual right to terminate the agreement in accordance with the terms previously agreed upon.

Legal Considerations

We have documented evidence of all communications, service performance issues, and contractual violations. We are prepared to present this evidence in any legal proceedings that may be necessary to defend our reputation and business practices.

We believe that business disputes should be resolved professionally and privately. However, when false public statements are made that damage our reputation and potentially harm our users' confidence in our services, we must take appropriate action to protect our interests.

Moving Forward

Despite this unfortunate situation, ihos.cloud remains committed to providing excellent service to our users. We have successfully migrated all affected services to more reliable hosting infrastructure and have implemented additional monitoring and backup systems.

Our priorities moving forward include:

  • Maintaining the highest standards of service reliability and security
  • Continuing to expand our infrastructure to meet growing demand
  • Strengthening our vendor selection and management processes
  • Ensuring transparent communication with our user community

We appreciate the patience and support of our users during this transition period. Your trust in ihos.cloud is of paramount importance to us, and we will continue to work diligently to earn and maintain that trust.

Questions or Concerns?

If you have any questions or concerns about this situation or how it may affect your services, please don't hesitate to contact us.

We remain committed to transparency, professionalism, and providing the best possible service to our users.

Sincerely,
The IHOS Cloud Management Team
