From HostOnce.com's TOS: RESOURCE POLICY Resources are defined as bandwidth and/or disk space and/or processor utilization. HostOnce.com allows the consumption of 800MB of disk space and a monthly bandwidth allowance of 40GB per web hosting account. In the event, where a customer is found to be exceeding these limits or monopolizing processor utilization, HostOnce.com reserves the right to impose the High Resource User Policy for the consideration of all customers. HIGH RESOURCE USER POLICY HostOnce.com may implement the following policy to its sole discretion: When a website is found to be monopolizing the resources available, hence jeopardizing server performance and resources for other customers, HostOnce.com reserves the right to suspend that site immediately*. This policy is implemented to prevent the misuse of our servers. Customers may be offered an option whereby HostOnce.com continues hosting the website for an additional fee. * Please Note: HostOnce.com Reserves the right to suspend services to any account that it find affects overall server performance for other customers hosted on the same server (this does not necessarily mean issues related only to bandwidth or diskspace consumption). This suspension is effective immediately on action by the Abuse Team and customers are reminded to read the Backups policy below regarding this. --------------- They suspend the account immediately, without billing for overages, and then "may" continue hosting the site for additional fees, but they don't seem to disclose how much they charge for overages. :( They also want $83.40 up front which rounds out to $6.95 per month.
